Late Night With Seth Meyers, on NBC
Well known for his comedic timing and his somewhat sardonic delivery, "Saturday Night Live" alumnus Seth Meyers breaks down the day's news in his monologue before welcoming influential celebrity guests and getting quirky during satirical segments.
Q: Are they making another season of "Jack Ryan"? I've really enjoyed it so far.
They are making a third season as we speak. Unfortunately, they aren't far enough along to announce a premiere date.
What they have announced, though, are some plot and casting details, and there's plenty there to get you excited if you're a fan of twisty thrillers, big-budget action or the great character actor James Cosmo. (For a certain type of screen fan, the latter piece is the biggest news.)

In this reboot series premiere, a group of 4,400 formerly missing persons, each marginalized or undervalued at some point during the last century, is returned to modern-day Detroit without warning or reason. Autumn Best and Joseph David-Jones star.

When novelist and mother-of-two Laura (Jones) begins to suspect her husband and father of her children, Dean (Wayans), may be cheating on her, she reluctantly reaches out to a man she knows wouldn't spare her feelings in the name of comfort: her father, Felix (Murray). Quite the ladies' man himself, Felix is familiar with the ways a man might cheat, but the more time Laura spends with her wealthy, flirtatious, boozy and unstable father, the more she realizes how much she really needs and wants to feel unconditional love from the men in her life. But still the question nags at her, and so she has to know: is her husband cheating on her?

Deemed perfect for the job because of their flagrant disregard for their own lives, the newly created Suicide Squad are dropped on the remote island of Corto Maltese, which just happens to be filled with their most dangerous enemies, to carry out an unbelievable mission involving an alien starfish.
