Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Whether you are a Clancy fan or not, this is a good first season. They don't really portray Jack Ryan in the series like Clancy does in his books, but in order to add more drama, action and suspense for television they would have to alter his character some... which they did. There are parts where Ryan is insubordinate (which in most real jobs might get you fired), but they tend to fly through the scripts on this and you soon forget it and watch the action. AND, there is a lot of action. There are some things I would change if I was a writer for the show, but all in all, it's a pretty good season to start with. I gave it a 5 because the action and suspense outweighed the negatives.
