Super Good
I never read the books so I don't have a bias. This show was good enough that I binged watched them all and dawn is breaking. I am tired but it was worth it.
This was some compelling story telling. Life is complicated, humanity is complicated, sometimes there are no good choices and sometimes good deeds are punished. i felt like the story gave fair play to both sides of the Jihadi vs. the West conflict. The story doesn't try to justify what they do or what we do it just shows the motivations and the actions. There are several stories being told that all intertwine, but all are important and there didn't seem too be much, if any, filler scences.

A Better Format
While most of the movies have been pretty good the extended time frame available in a limited series format to develop the plot works much better for Jack Ryan's adventures. John Krasinski has done a great job of bringing a new version of Jack Ryan to life. As much as I love the Harrison Ford outings I think this Krasinski's version may be the best to date. The show has a decent budget and the production value may rival the movies. If you like the genre then definitely watch this version of Jack Ryan's adventures.

A better series than I expected
I'm familiar with the Jack Ryan novels and movies by Tom Clancy, but season one of Jack Ryan blew me away. I think having more time for character development in a season series benefits the show because the writing and acting are excellent. I binge watched the show just to see what happened next. This may be the most surprisingly good disc purchase that I made all year.
