Television Reacher (Amazon Prime) - Season 3 - Feb 20th

I fecking love this show. You don't have to think a single thought, just sit back and enjoy a straightforward, no-frills detective story with some extreme violence thrown in here and there.
 
Excellent start. Wish they had dropped all the episodes.
 
Brain off, TV on, no processing power required.

Enjoyed those 3 episodes.

It was unbelievable when Jet Li did it in that one film but watching a what 6"4 probably 200lbs man drop from a window and catching on to the ledge of another one with just his fingers tips is peak turn your brain off and enjoy TV.
 
This was the best start in multiple seasons now. The pacing was really good, the fight choreography and staging was nice too. This plot is better than last season so far too which helps the pacing.

Reacher is getting his kicked a lot so far this season makes the fight scenes more interesting
 
They could get through these series in about 4 episodes. Last 2 have been mostly filler tbh
 
The baddies are comically hammy and terrible actors
Reacher should've been shot about 15 times this season already. The amount of times he's been cornered by 4 guys with guns, only to take them out one by one :lol:
 
Can’t wait to see Reacher wriggle out of this one.

Yeah, but knows they won't shoot because it will make noise and draw attention.

But then they proceed to have a gun fight anyway.
 
Binged S2 and s3
And started 4

This is such OTT nonsensical stuff, it's great
Nothing will beat end of S2 with reacher holding the gurney which was falling out the helicopter whilst taking a beating but withstanding it

And did like the reacher v Paulie stuff from s3

Enjoyed the first three episodes of s4 (so far).
 
Quality of this season has dropped off significantly since they left the book material behind. Massive plot changes after first 3 episodes
I thought it had the making of the best season yet after 3 episodes. The 4th one being where it diverts from the book is interesting to know, as I felt that's where it got a bit silly.

It’s an interesting one to adapt. Book was released before Bin Laden was killed and the whole plot point was that the Presidential candidate had a photo taken with Bin Laden, the two women were Taliban or Al Queda. Wouldn’t be anywhere near as massive a deal now as when he was alive, so it’s strange they picked this book. It doesn’t work in 2026 like it did in 2009, hence the changes and silliness.

Politicians had more shame in 2009 as well. I can imagine even if bin Laden was alive, Trump could take him to the baseball and be able to shrug it off.
 
I’m in 4, thought it was 3. The last season with the team and Robert Patrick sucked ass but this new one is good in the first 4 episodes.
Aargh, gotcha. Yeah thought you might be talking about season 04 but wasn’t sure. The Robert Patrick one was season 02 yeah. Season 03 was with that kid and his dad plus that giant of a bodyguard.

He might have sucked ass (he has done for decades), but he had one of the best nods/ callback/ homage I’ve seen for a very long time.

Apparently it was a complete coincidence as well.
