Tom Clancy's JACK RYAN

When CIA analyst Jack Ryan stumbles upon a suspicious series of bank transfers his search for answers pulls him from the safety of his desk job and catapults him into a deadly game of cat and mouse throughout Europe and the Middle East, with a rising terrorist figurehead preparing for a massive attack against the US and her allies.

Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan follows an up-and-coming CIA analyst thrust into a dangerous field assignment for the first time. The series follows Ryan as he uncovers a pattern in terrorist communication that launches him into the center of a dangerous gambit with a new breed of terrorism that threatens destruction on a global scale.

Really excited for this. Krasinski totally surprised/impressed me in '13 Hours'.

Finished it over this weekend. I love it. It's like I watched an 8 hour long movie. ^_^ 

Here's my only gripe. Beware that it might contain some spoiler. So click the tag at your own risk.

I viewed the drone pilot as them introducing us to part of the duo that Ryan always uses in the books; of course this is after he is CIA head honcho, and then POTUS.  I've only read the one book dealing with J. Ryan and he isn't actually in the book, but his dad is trying to track down a murderer in D.C. area; who eventually turns out to become part of Ryan's Dynamic Duo.  In the book, the character in question was a Vietnam Vet who then did Underwater Demo before "going off the deep end".   Don't know the backstory to the other part of the Duo used in the Ryan verse.

Avoiding spoilers, as I'm still working my way through the series but I really like what I've seen so far. 

Happy to see that Paramount is also thinking of doing a John Clark film series.

Really enjoyed this as well, and while I couldn't help but be reminded of Jack Bauer's 24, Jack Ryan managed to avoid falling into the more annoying tropes of 24. 

Would definitely check out any follow-up seasons.

Agreed. Good series overall. I'll watch more if they do more.
