Fun fact :in the novel this season is based on its revealed and the end that Roscoe is pregnant presumably with reachers child This has lead to the hunt for Jack reacher series of novels where that kid now grown up also becomes a wandering man in search of his father and getting into trouble and helping people revisting many of the characters and portions of many reacher novels as he does so

Right?!? After the movies I was so worried, but they freaking nailed it. My only complaint is the way Neely dresses and acts. She’s the head of a massive PI firm, and doesn’t dress like a 90s lesbian. She also doesn’t talk to freely to Reacher, she maintains that military discipline when they speak, they don’t talk like best friends. That’s a very minor complaint tho, they nail her essence anyways.

[@johnlummis5119]

@@donmiller2908 Apparently Lee Childs has said he will not work with Tom Cruise again, nothing to do with his acting ability or a clash of personality, it’s purely due to his physical size, he said this in an interview hosted by Stephen King.

I've read all the Reacher books and gave this adaptation 2 thumbs up. I like that they started with the 1st book - one wonders why Tom Cruise didn't do the same. My only nitpick with the series is that Reacher spent too much time driving a car, which from the books you learn he does grudgingly.

[@KelticTim]

I agree about the car thing, however they never show him playing Fast and the Furious like the Cruise movie. Remember, he’s capable of driving, just doesn’t like it and knows he’s not the best at it. He does drive when he has too

The most jarring moment was when he commanded his GPS to look for motels near Augusta bus station. But I like that they've set it in the 2020s and that Neagley is tech savvy. I think it'll add to the series.

[@michaelemond7315]

It was the most enjoyable series I have watched in years. It perfectly captured the books and improved on them because it allowed us into the backstories of some of the side characters. Reacher was perfectly cast and acted by Alan. Any imperfections of the series stem from the book itself (e.g. the FBI contacted just happened to be the ONE FBI agent who was in on this conspiracy, Reacher can take a crowbar to his arms and face and not have one broken bone?). But readers forgive these "writer's conveniences" because the character of Reacher is so much fun and the plots are (usually) a lot of fun as well. Loved this series - can't wait for Season 2.

Thanks for the excellent analysis! Amazon would have to be out of their minds not to continue this series. Reacher is by far the best thing they’ve ever done.

Blessings to you all!

[@matty7106]

Very good adaptation. I really appreciated how true they were to the books and character. I’ve read all 26 books in order and can still remember most of the details from book 1. My one complaint is that they drag out the fight scenes too long to make it more tense. Part of the joy of the Reacher series is that he almost never falls into a trap or let’s anyone get the jump on him. There’s no way the cousin should have nearly beat him in the swimming pool, and the final fight should have been a little less Hollywood. But other than that, was nearly perfect. Looking forward to season 2.

[@jmchez]

One of the fights with a Venezuelan and the fight with the cousin bothered me. In both Reacher survived by pure luck. Roscoe got there just in time and Reacher got to the gun barely the second time. That's just too much luck and not the way that a badass can afford to do things.

[@billruge649]

My opinion I thought it was one of the best series I've ever seen. It had Action, suspense, drama and great characters. 5 STARS to everyone involved in it. Can't wait for season 2, hope they hurry finally something worth watching.

[@MsNubian41]

I absolutely loved Reacher...I truly hope there's more seasons to come!!🥰🥰🥰

[@jandavidson2179]

After 4 episodes I'd tell my husband "only 1 Reacher tonight! I want it to last!" I'm like that with books too. I'll put it down to prolong the ending. I LOVED it and Alan was perfect. Can't wait for the next one.

[@mrklean0292]

I know the feeling.

[@djcruiser9816]

I thought Lee Child’s one line was an authentic apology to the human behind the character. I am humbled and astounded by the sacrifices Alan Ritchson made for this role.

[@scottmccloud9029]

I watched two of the trailers for Reacher and was hooked. Signed up and binged watched all 8 episodes. Very well worth watching and I'm looking forward to a second season. A six foot five inch Reacher is alot more realistic and intimidating than one of the lollipop guild munchkins from the earlier movies. I enjoyed it very much.

Fantastic series..loved every minute of it. Perfect casting, great story, action and funny as well. "no, it's too small....it will be uncomfortable"

[@ronwatson4135]

I worked over seas in Oilfield Camps for 27 years. I first came across a Lee Child book in Nigeria and felt a kinship with the Reacher character. I read several of them and told my friends about them. When I seen years later they were going to put Jack Reacher on the Big Screen, I was all excited until I seen Tom Cruise was picked to play Reacher. I automatically started saying to myself, he's to small to play Reacher and refused to buy into any of the movies starring Cruise. Then I was Trolling on the internet and came across this and checked it out. The first time I seen Alan Ritchson as Reacher, he was exactly how I imagined him in the books. Who ever cast Ritchson as Reacher did their homework. I look forward to another Season.

[@pelicanjoe]

Spoiler Alert - As someone whom never read a JR book, I thought the series was great. The only issue (minor nit-pick) was that they made the shaved-headed lacky too much of a match with Reacher. He kills all of the other trained assasins without issue, but when it comes to the bald-headed lacky, they are evenly matched. Other than that, it made me want to read the JR series.

[@roderick8167]

I know right that bald headed lacky was the only one that gave Reacher a hard time in a fight out of everyone in the whole season I was like Tf why him 😂

Surprisingly really well done. Alan Richmon is the perfect casting for this role and action choreography is exceptional especially compared to the shaky cam stuff you normally get in these types of shows. Can’t wait for season 2

@@7ebr830 I see you've reposted this comment a number of times. Are you expecting the masses to support your position? I agree with Lee Childs that he should have named the series after Roscoe and had Reacher as a walk-on instead. Of course he was kidding, but he did dearly love Willa Fitzgerald's portrayal of Roscoe - as did I.

I enjoyed Reacher the more I watched it. I don't know if the cast/writing warmed up or I didn't know the character (probably the latter). I'd definitely like and would watch a Season 2. Your video didn't really explain the ending so much as the series, but I enjoyed it anyway. Congrats for minimal spoilers ;)

This was an awesome show!! I finished it in 2 days. Awesome cast and great script. Loved it!

Finished watching this great of a show in 2 days and plan to watch it again, haven't watched an action thriller like this in awhile, the plot keeps you guessing, good action that doesn't drag along too much, everything is just perfect for me. Can't wait for a season 2! And the casting is superb!

[@coach6662]

Absolutely loved watching Reacher. Well written, well acted, and lots of surprises throughout the 8 episodes. I recommend the show to everyone. Definitely want a season 2

Great show with a great script, actors, and action. Captured the spirit of the book very well. Can't wait for the next season.

I've never read the books and I liked Cruise's movies fine enough but this was AWESOME. And the characters of Roscoe and Neagly are f'ing badasses! I love both of them. And I'm glad they gave us a decent ending with them. I was afraid he was going to leave her while she was still sleeping. There was some cheesy lines and the final battle was predictable but still awesome.

[@Pittsburghestatesale]

We enjoyed this series but have a hard time that a guy who can take four hardened lifer's in prison has a hard time beating punks , one on one ... especially the little 5'8 A$$hole who almost drowned him. We love this kind of suspenseful action series but hate how the writers stretch reality a bit too far.

[@joshs4441]

I looked it up, the 1st season is based off the 1st book "Killing Floor". The 1st movie was based on the 9th book "One Shot" and the sequel was based off the 18th book "Never Go Back." I hope the show does good enough to remake the 2 movies and I hope they do a good job on making them better than the movies.

@@nathanieleasonbign81970 The book series is pretty much in chronological order for the first 10 or 11 books, except for "The Enemy" & "The Affair" which were both set in Reacher's active duty days. I'd like to see more stories from his military days like The Enemy.

More Reacher, now would be good. Lee Child has SEVERAL more Reacher books to produce. The man now playing Reacher more closely resembles the man I saw in my minds eye, while reading all of the Reacher series books. Finally a correct casting of the character, Reacher. More, please.

[@specialedition9738]

Ritchson at 6'5" is much more believable at kicking ass than 5'7" Cruise. This without a doubt is a kicking ass series. I must point out though, when Reacher went to Hubble's house to confront the 4 hit men dressed in the white hoodies the last of the four who was the smallest of the 4 gave Reacher all he could handle and just about managed almost killed Reacher in the pool. Can't wait for season 2.

[@neill392]

Actually he's 6' 2", but much nearer the profile that Cruise.

[@johnmarriott5989]

At last, a believable Reacher. It felt truly professionable, well acted, dramatic scenes, good character acting apart from Lee Child. Please find another a good Reacher book to dramatise but keep Lee Child out his ego carries him away.

I think it could replace BOSCH for Amazon as a long-running detective series made upon a large volume of novels. Given a high IMDb user response and a large amount of source material to write from, I think Amazon could have a good series ahead.
