I've never watched any episode.  If you guys recommend it, I guess I should check it out.
I actually enjoyed  the first season though I went into it thinking that I  wouldn`t.

Not a bad show IMO.

He built the muscles naturally but then had to use TRT to recover from the stress and fatigue.

The first season was enjoyable even if it wasn't Shakespeare. This new season is awful. He also has to stand on a box in scenes with other actors. The actor is 6'2" according to Google so that means he's probably 6'1".  In every scene he is a foot taller than all the male actors. His physique also fluctuates between episodes. Hard to maintain a consistent physique over the many months of filming.

Reacher in the books is 6'5" and 250 and built like a brick sh*thouse.

What's next?  Tom Cruise will play Michael Jordan in Jordan's next biopic film?
Well, John Wayne played Genghis Khan.  ;D

I'd convinced myself I was 6ft 2in to downplay my height and Reacher's 6ft 5in so I thought, "I'll have to exaggerate my height for this."

But when I measured myself I was 6ft 3½in - add the boots and I'm pretty much there.

Very concerning.  Troubling even. Could divide the country even further.

And what fine titonas they are.
He's in decent shape there too. Jogged my memory that he played Aquaman in Smallville, which this pic is from. Erica Durance was a highlight of that show.

His high yellow partner or whatever she is is a very average actor. Ritchson is not exactly Laurence Olivier but watching this lady made me think someone wanted a person of colour next to Reacher.

She had more of a bit part in the first season.  I think her role expanded as the season went on. Now she's his sidekick. It's almost like a cop/buddy thing now solving the mystery side by side.

I think the season 1 story was a little better.  The whole "someone is killing off former members of an elite military unit" is an overused cliche.

That's the plot in one of the Reacher books.

I remember him saying around this time that he never lifted weights and his physique was purely the product of bodyweight work. I never knew whether to believe that or not. Seems like he has no issues building muscle.

She was actually Miss Denmark in 2008.

Maria Sten-Knudsen, one of the Parents is Danish. Mother from Congo i assume.
