Got through three episodes, but I am done.

I am no mood for the political BS right now.
What is the politics of the show? I was thinking of starting to watch, but I won't if it's full of liberal BS.


Looking for a trigger warning?
I just don't want to give libs, who are actively trying to infringe on my way of life, any unnecessary views/clicks.
lol

I don't recall the details of s1 anymore, but I'll rewatch it prior to s2. Just really happy to see this is coming back with more. How many shows out there right now have this kind of a vibe? Maybe Narcos?

The car attack does look lifted straight from Clear and Present danger and the South American setting helps with that too but no mention of cartels so it looks like some type of adaptation. I have high hopes! Cast looks on point.

After quite a bit of speculation that it would drop Aug 31 like S1, was hoping it was sooner than Nov 1. And I didn't even think S1 was that good. Trailer looks good, lets see if they hit their stride in S2.

I scanned the cast for the first four episodes and didn't see a character listed as Ding Chavez. Too bad but maybe like John Clark, he had his name changed due to restrictions. I didn't recognize Matice's face in the teaser but he will be back.

Matice wasn't in it, and neither was Kathy. I have a pretty good feeling they're both going to be in this season.

Maybe I'm mixing up the various iterations of the Clancy works on film, but I thought that Ryan met the Kathy character (whether named Kathy or not) at a big outdoor party of some sort, and then got whisked away by CIA types in a helicopter to go to the Middle East?

You are correct. I don't remember why he was at the party. They've ignored Jacks stock trader past, right?

I'm pretty sure they have ignored Jack's background as a stock trader. Still, S1 was a pretty good show, and I'm looking forward to seeing where they go with it.

In the books, Jack's background was that he was a cadet at the USNA, was involved in a helicopter crash during a training mission, and spent his time while recovering playing the stock market and doing very well there iirc.

I dont specifically remember at which point he met Kathy in his history though. I want to say that when the Jack Ryan books start that they're already married.

Her father was his boss on Wall Street and didn't think very much of Jack leaving that life behind to teach at the Naval Academy IIRC

No problem. Last year/early this year I listened to all of the 80s/90s Ryan books on audiobook so it's somewhat fresh in my memory

Technically Kathy's dad came to Baltimore to recruit young Jack from the Baltimore Merrill Lynch office up to Wall Street. Kathy was at John's Hopkins at the time and I think he brought her along so they could see each other while he was in town.

He graduated from Boston College economic ba, minor in history. Commissioned in the Marine Corps and then injured in a helo crash in Greece.
He taught at the academy never went there.

Excited for this one. It hits right around the time I start getting CFB fatigue.

Don't worry. If we lose to Auburn, it will compute.

This season just reminds me of how badly GOT did the faceless men plot.

Thought this season was really good. One of the better produced series on a non traditional major platform.

We watched the entire season today. I thought it was good but I think I enjoyed season 1 more. I wish they were more than 8 episodes.

I've watched season 1 and I'm IN. John K is really good as Jack Ryan.

Haven't finished season 2 yet, but wtf happened to Cathy?!

Biggest departure from the books so far, and a confusing one at that. I figured with how much time they invested there, she would have stuck around, even with some of the geographic barriers.
