Summaries

Limited series adaptation of the classic Joseph Heller novel. Follows Captain John Yossarian and airmen in World War II.

Captain John Yossarian, a World War II bombardier, is stationed on the island of Pianosa. He is an individualist who seeks to protect his own life by fleeing to the hospital, since a "catch-22" in the army regulations prevents him from being grounded for illness or obtaining a leave.

It's WW2 and John Yossarian is in the US Army Air Corps. After gruelling training he ends up a bombardier on B-25 medium bombers in the Mediterranean. After witnessing much death and destruction and the indifference of senior officers to the welfare of the aircrews he starts to question his sanity. Surely being insane is enough to get him sent home? Well, no, there's Catch-22.—grantss
