Just a lack of product.

First Episode had a funny line

Robert Patrick(who played T1000 in Terminator 2) says a Sarah Connor-joke.


Langston correctly identifies Castro as the name of a famous Yankees player, confirming the moniker is likely fake, but when asked, "Who's Sarah Connor?" Reacher season 2's main villain responds, "I don't give a sh*t."

Sarah Connor is, of course, the name of Linda Hamilton's character in the Terminator franchise, and Terminator 2: Judgment Day saw her hunted down by the liquid metal T-1000, played by one Robert Patrick.

Not a fan of Ritcher as Reacher, I found his voice boring to listen to, like they've taken Patrick Swayzes voice and kicked the charisma out of him.
Also It's shit when there's no danger for the lead, even in commando Arnold may have been superhero esque but he had a scrap with Cook and was weakened enough after being shot to struggle with Freddie Mercury.
Compare Reachers figjts in say gangs of london where the main guy can fight but gets out by the skin of his teeth

I just enjoy someone being tall playing reacher - he was 6'6" in the book for christ sake - Thomas cruise don't cut it for me - notice he incorporates the classic Getbig fight move of "going for the nuts"


*this scene was based on LurkerNoMores encounters as a young lad

I think he's admitted to having a serious alcohol problem over the years.

I was watching an interview with him a couple of nights ago. He said they wanted him to add some size for Reacher 2. He said he put everything he had into training hard, heavy weights, lots of cardio, etc. says he loves testosterone especially now that he’s over 40. If I recall he said nothing about TRT doses.

I was in a 511 store today and they’re even repping him

Found it…

He claimed somewhere he was on 600mg of test.

Very boring so far apart from some bits in the first episode. Way too many cliches, constant silly wisecracking between Reacher's team, a ton of macho bravado. Apparently a pipe bomb can go off in Queens and the police will take their sweet time to respond. What a waste.

I want to see more of the mysterious guy with the British accent, I guess they are saving him for later.

I'm not the only one then.  You can have fights but the lead is sooo boring to listen to, the atmosphere is dull, its all predictable. After just rewatching banshee it's really lame, all the characters, especially Hood got proper fucked up before victory in fight scenes.

Where do all those hitmen come from too? In episode 3 there was a house full of them, Reacher killed two or three more in previous episodes. Do tech CEOs have access to a 1-800 call a goon landline?

If you like Reacher you might like this less known series (australian?), Mr Inbetween:



More down to earth, zero bravado, he just get things done.
