A Preview of Season 3 of ‘Jack Ryan’

Written by John Edward Betancourt

It is definitely safe to say that the Prime Video series, Jack Ryan, took the world by storm when it debuted in 2018 and rightfully so. After all, the action and adventure in that first season was simply top notch, and that of course carried over into season two and that captivated audiences for certain. As did the acting and storytelling as well. Since John Krasinski was the right man to play Dr. Jack Ryan, since he brought the everyman honesty to the role that was present in Tom Clancy’s books and injected new life into the character and that also translated over to the storytelling. Since the first two seasons of this show, based loosely on The Sum of All Fears and Clear and Present Danger, truly reflected the modern world and gave the series, a supremely realistic and relatable feel.

But alas, after season two… our enjoyment of this series all but disappeared. But that was of course, not the fault of those involved. For 2020 would bring forth quite the global surprise, one that would delay productions everywhere in the name of health and safety. But as the world began to recover and life started to move back to normal… production on the third season of this majestic series got underway and at long last… one of the best action shows on television is about to return to the airwaves. For December 21, 2022, will see season three of this beloved series drop on Prime Video and in anticipation/celebration of its arrival, we here at NTG thought it would be worthwhile to preview season three… in a spoiler free manner of course. 

Because this saga often features big surprises and spoiling those in advance would be rude to say the least. But obviously, if you’re here, you’ve seen the trailer; you’re counting down the days and you’re dying to know something about season three and that’s where we can help. By informing you first and foremost, that season three does not miss a beat. For this new adventure picks up perfectly after season two’s epic events and draws you right back into this world in a comfortable manner. Which is important, since there was a chance here that the Covid related delays could have led to a re-tooling or re-jigging of the Jack Ryan mythos. But instead… we get what we love in spades… alongside quite the wondrous surprise.

In that, this season features the show’s biggest and most ambitious plot to date. Courtesy of a crisis and mission for Jack to handle that not only preys upon current global concerns, likely inadvertently, but features some supremely high stakes for him and the CIA. The kind that leaves so much hanging in the balance and as an added bonus… the character development present in this new season, regarding this plot, is simply top notch. Because Jack is put to the test like never before and forced to face some hard moments in this story and that pushes him to his full potential and to go above and beyond to complete his mission, and what’s amazing… is that there are still more wonders to celebrate regarding this new season. 
 
Because we’d be foolish to not point out, that the action and adventure is the best it’s ever been as well. In fact, this new season wastes little time in wowing us with such matters, making it clear that everyone involved in this series, wanted to make season three worth the fans’ time and gift them with an epic tale after an unexpected hiatus. And it is definitely mission accomplished when it comes to that, since we are indeed treated to the best season to date of a series that already exceeds expectations, and we simply cannot wait for you to experience the wonder of season three firsthand when Jack Ryan returns to the airwaves on December 21, 2022.
