First three episodes did not disappoint.
I loved how they put “Sarah Conner” into the context. Pretty funny.

Finally! Amazon Prime series cast Jack Reacher correctly
- Thread starter gamecockcat
- Start date
Agree on the one a week nonsense after initial 3.
I watched the first 3 so will just watch the new episode each Friday I guess.
Season 2 seems good so far. I've read all the books except the newest one so love Reacher.

My wife and I watched them. I like it so far. I wish Robert Patrick wasn't the bad guy though......I've always liked him as an actor.
It's funny how some actors can have a difficult time shaking a character they have played. I feel like the T-1000 Terminator was that for Robert Patrick. I can't watch him on any other movie and not think he is going to melt and reshape. 😂
Loved the first season. We've since dropped Prime so I'll wait until all episodes are out and do the trial and binge it. The only thing about season 1 that I hated was the fire fight at the end in the warehouse where they were hiding from gunfire behind cardboard boxes. Still, it was a great show.
Thought season 1 became redundant about 2/3,of the way thru.
May check out season 2 but 1 definitely did not leave me wanting more.
Bosch and The Lincoln Lawyer are exponentially better, especially Bosch.

Bosch is really good. Did not see Lincoln Lawyer.
Bosch is really good. Lincoln lawyer movie is good but haven’t checked out the series.
Like Reacher. Gotta watch something if sports isn’t on.

Alan Ritchson is in a new drama called Ordinary Angels, just saw the trailer and he's wearing a UK hat in it.
Season 2 has been solid so far. Hate waiting a week in between episodes but is what it is.
Ritchson was 6'3" 205 lbs when he auditioned for Reacher. He added over 30 pounds of muscle in a matter of months and claims that it was all natural. I find that hard to believe. He admits that he is now taking testosterone to deal with injuries.
I do enjoy the show a good deal.

Of course he used supplements. I think Hollywood doesn’t want actors to admit it because it’s a bad look and example I guess. But they all do for big roles, who wouldn’t for millions?
Hugh Jackman
Chris Hemsworth
Dwayne Johnson
Mark Wahlberg
Zac Efron
That’s just off the top of my head and not counting the old heads like Arnold, etc.
Someone who needs to, Robert Pattinson for Batman. I can’t have skinny Batman.
He actually doesn't use steroids, but he does dabble in rabies shots for performance.

He can say what he wants but he's absolutely using something(s). Not saying it's anything illegal but still.
That said, very few could achieve those results under any circumstances. Especially considering he says he doesn't really follow a strict diet. Definitely a winner in the genetic lottery.
Take a sneak preview into ‘Ordinary Angels,’ starring Hilary Swank, Alan Ritchson
[...]
"Ordinary Angels," starring Academy Award winner Hilary Swank and actor Alan Ritchson, ("Reacher") is based on a memoir of the same name written by Louisville's Sharon Stevens Evans.
A single mother and hairstylist living in Louisville in the early 1990s, Evans read a newspaper story in the Courier Journal that inspired her to move mountains to help a family living in the Buechel neighborhood with a critically ill little girl.
Courier Journal columnist Jim Adam's story, "Louisville family is bearing up under crushing burden of crisis," explained the local family's triple tragedy.
Ed Schmitt had recently lost his 29-year-old wife to a respiratory illness and was now trying to raise two girls, both under age 5. The girls suffered from a deadly liver condition called biliary atresia and required liver transplants to survive. Adding to the family's crisis were heaps of insurmountable medical bills.

Movie opens this week. It’s a good one. A really good Kentucky story about people helping people.
How was it? His 2nd season side kicks wore me out really fast. Looked like the worst one of them is back
More intense and violent so far.
Loved all season 2 characters....w/o them you wouldn't have known the back story w/ his outfit.
Yes but only in spurts, which was fine. Not a fan of her or the weasel type guy at least not inong stretches.
Pretty sure i saw something that seemed like shes getting her own spin-off. Ya good luck with that.
Ok good. Maybe i will pick this one up again.
Season 2 was really pretty meh. I didn't mind the emphasis on his squad and agree it sets up some backstory.. but the actors just weren't very good IMO. Some pretty cheesy lines and cliched action bits, like him rehashing the same line something about "assumptions kill" like 8 times over.
I really liked season 1 though. So looking for ward to see what they do here.

Season one was great. Season two was okay. So far season three seems a bit lazy on the writing. I mean people just go missing and no one thinks anything of it. A huge compound that is supposed to be secured but there isn't a camera anywhere on the interior. Come on.
Persuader was written in 2003. That is 22 years ago. Long time in the tech world. I think that they are having trouble adapting the books into the modern era. There are no pay phones now, no news papers, and the level of tech back then was spartan compared to today.
