In the Navy, onboard a ship, there is a bell and it will tell you what meal is being served in the galley. I'd been onboard for weeks (maybe months) before I figured out that supper meant dinner. Honestly, I didn't give a shit. The bell rang, and food was in the galley. I was very Pavlovian by then. One day, it just clicked that they were calling 'lunch' "dinner".

And I think those dudes in Alcatraz ate better than we did ...

I completely disagree. So many different people have now played Jack Ryan, that character has started to lose identity.

Harrison Ford feels like the closest rendition of the character from the book. Jim from the office is NOT Jack Ryan. He is more of a Jason Bourne. Alec Baldwin, Batman and Captain Kirk all gave us different versions of the character as well.

If there can't be continuity, then play a different character.
