"Jack Ryan" on Amazon Prime
I see season 2 is out. Re-watched S1. Pretty impressive. I suggest a look see for those that haven't seen it. My opinion.

Really good season 1. Just had one peeve. In all the TC novels, no mention is ever made of Greer's religious inclination. This series has him as a devout Muslim. Maybe it's for a later storyline on testing his faith or something. I just found it a major distraction since they are battling Muslim terrorist and maybe wanted to show good vs bad Muslims ie preaching the agenda. Was not needed. Minor bitch.

That's because Hollywood is more concerned about virtue signaling to you rather than entertaining you. They use movies and TV shows to shove bullshit down your throat. You are correct. Greer was not religious in the novels. It had no relevance to the stories.WestTexasCrude wrote: ↑Sat Oct 12, 2019 9:24 pm Really good season 1. Just had one peeve.
