    I’m sitting here watching Jack Ryan season 3 and Russia is portrayed as this big bad world super power and it’s endleslessly laughable.

      🤣🤣🤣

      Yeah… that season was a little interesting. They definitely wrote it before the war as it has not aged well.

        It’s ok with good production values but the latest season is terrible.

            It’s a Tom Clancy IP so CIA and US military worship is a given.

            But the last season was so inept. The season finaly was specially terrible immitating badly a similar scene from Sicario. And it was a real slog getting there with their convoluted, ridiculous and boring take on “Clear and present danger”.

            I don’t mind consuming propaganda/CIA Mary Sue but it at least has to be entertaining.

            The recently released series Lioness does a much better job even if Taylor Sheridan recycles his “cartels working with Islamic terrorists” plot point from Sicario 2 which I find way too far fetched.
