Show looks to be hitting its stride. I'm in.

That trailer thankfully looks somewhat promising. S1 was pretty dope, while S2 was god awful. Some book readers already said a couple of months ago that S2 (and the book it's based on) was a bit of an outliner, so I'm hoping for a return to form(tm).

You have to keep in mind this show was written for men in season 1. When they realized the demographic watching was 43% Women who were opinionated on what they wanted season 2, they changed gears a bit. Thankfully, everyone hated it so they are going back to what they did season 1. Alpha male who fucks all the girls and refuses to commit, chiseled out of granite

Ah god please no more sex scenes. To paraphrase a podcast I listen to you are just thinking "oh no, Reacher you can't make love like normal men, it's too dangerous"

So like is this the kinda place that will tell me that the first 2 seasons are worth my time?

Season 1 is universally praised as very good. You'll get some kickback on season 2. I thought it was fine (not trash or dog shit) but it was a step down from season 1.

He had two-ish people helping him in season 1, but he was mostly a solo act.

They gave him a team and love interest in season 2 with an attempt at some backstory.

This season it looks like he will go back to having two-ish people helping him while being a mostly solo act.

Season One was left largely alone by the Amazon Studios executives.

Season Two was not. Christ knows what’s gone on with this one, but hopefully the coke snorting idiots around Salke have had nothing to do with it.

I hope Paulie kicks his ass and throws his corpse over the cliff into the ocean at the back of the house...and season 4 is cancelled.

The thad castle gifs gave me life, dude was somehow even better at comedy than action (the extremely high pitch voice when he scream help a lot)

Seasons 2s not really THAt bad, its just they had to do what all hollywood garbage does now..DECONSTRUCT everything. Remove the mystique, explain it all away.

That's not what women want to see, they want girlbosses and effeminate men.

I don't get it, what mysticism and misteries there was in season 1?

The serial seems pretty straight forward, i didn't watched season 1 for the mystique...

Still a decent watch, just dropped off from S1 somewhat.

Absence of the special investigators is already a plus. Neagley can stay as long as she doesn't outstay her welcome.

They say that in public. The viewership numbers of reacher being very high points out they like the alpha male who fucks all the women.

For that matter, 50 shades of Grey was a series about a dominant rich alpha male tying and gagging and abusing a young innocent girl and her falling for him. On a budget of less than 150 million, it made like 1.3 billion of almost exclusively female audience and wasn't a CGI blockbuster movie everyone complains took over cinema.

I just mean they didnt have to tell you the entire backstory of his squad and past life. They gave you just enough pieces for the story to matter. Reacher remained a bad ass, a wanderer. Seasons 2....they give away his entire backstory and past....its too much , not needed, overdramatic sap.

That trailer seems to give away the whole season but maybe no one is watching for the plot :p

Cop chick is hot and they look to bone, hopefully S1 T&A is back.

Reacher FOR THE LOVE OF GOD FINALLY SHAVED FOR HIS ACTIVE DUTY ARMY FLASHBACKS which was my #1 complaint about the show. Hopefully they finally hired a vet (or at least listened to the ones they have on the show) to make the flashbacks more authentic.
