re: ‘Reacher’ Season 2 Is Now Officially One Of The Worst Shows On TV (Spoilers)

Also Alan Ritchson looks uncomfortably/unhealthily big. He was already huge in the first season but reasonably so. He looks like he’s on every kind of gear imaginable.

Bro can barely move lol

I’m enjoying S2 so far.

Ive watched and enjoyed every episode. Cry more.

I still love it

I'm having trouble finishing it. The fight scene choreography is way off, it has bad dialogue and, the writing is unbelievable. It's gone hardcore campy and soapy.

The Bear season 2 also sucks. I am struggling to finish it too. I don't want to watch a full episode of each character go through self discovery.

But this is a show where you turn your brain off anyway, so I let it slide.

Or suspend all belief as if it were a Marvel flic. At the construction site, when they "buried" a dead guy in hours old concrete still the consistency of Campbells soup.... with a 4" form surrounding the slab? Damn, at least find a retention pond.

GTFO

Season 2 has been a bit too "easy", I'm no film critic but you can tell it's just not as quality on the writing side. I agree with some, not all of the complaints here. My biggest one is by bringing in the full team they kind of dumbed down Reacher's character to just be a big oaf too much of the time. He was a more well rounded individual "agent" in season 1.

The critics also hated The Terminal List. Anything with a strong white male main character, military, violence, and guns is the worst thing that could ever exist in their eyes.

Yeah, I think that's a lot of the problem in their eyes.

I enjoyed it so far, it's really the only new show I'm watching. Does it match up with the best original Magnum PI or Miami Vice runs? No, it does not. But that stuff isn't being made anymore.
I recently saw a review referring to Reacher as "Dad TV", and the truth is, it's basically the only show in that genre being made right now.

I hate to say it but I think you took it easy on the show.

So the 110th investigators are all hard core patriots whose first priority is to protect the country? Funny how their ego and self importance seems to rank much higher than their patriotism.

They are facing what could be an existential threat (as they present little wing to us) but instead of cutting the DoD or Homeland (or both) in on it, because they are the absolute best (funny then how the bad guys wiped four of them off the map that easily) and they can only trust themselves (well except for Swan’s credentials whom apparently Neagley never totally did) they have to get done everything themselves. Except from some “minor” help from some random detective that they can’t really seem to trust until he is dead.

There are more holes in this show’s plot than in your average pasta strainer and that is being kind.

These guys are geniuses but they could not figure out a scenario where Swan, the odd man out was the honest peg and brought in the rest of his guys and they were all taken out but left Swan set up as the bad guy?

This is like the first season where you could tell who their leak was at least one episode BEFORE Reacher figures it out if you had ANY active brain cells.

I’ll take the movies tyvm despite Tom not having basketball sized fists. At least his Reacher has a working brain.

Last episode was really dumb on a number of levels. Hopefully S3 is better.
