Great show -- it held my interest and showed the military in a good light. I hope it continues.

I also was impressed by the fact that the terrorists were muslim -- not like the "Sum of All Fears" muslim turned White Nazi terrorist crap they pulled. I really thought Tom Clancy sold out on that one. Pure garbage.

Clancy didn't have script approval on the 5-film package he signed on for, including 'Sum' and 'Patriot Games'. The producers of same butchered all the plots, with the least offensive case being 'Red October'.

He's now insisting on it, so look for either A) very few or B) zero new films made from Clancy novels.
