Yes. They adapted a tv series based on the evil Treadstone program from
the Robert Ludlum novels. There were no references to anything else in
the novels nor the movie adaptations. I don't think the Jason Bourne
character was even mentioned in dialogue.

10 episodes, USA Network, September-December 2019

Very little of the continuing plot made sense. I don't recall that
any of the story lines were wrapped up.

There was plenty of snarking here on Usenet.
