It’s not great. I binged the whole thing in 36 hours. The season finale was off the rails bad. I enjoyed it.

there is a very common graffiti here in argentina that says something like ¨if you are reading this you are gay¨ . I was at the bus the other day and saw an amazing one that said ¨if you read Lee Child you are gay¨

It was so weird and bizarre and at the same time so literate i was kinda proud of it.

I’m pretty sure I read a Reacher book I imagine it had to be the first one but I don’t remember anything about it.

Reacher: Season 2

Post by Peeps »



first season was amazing. I can only hope they build off that. Alan Ritchson is so damn physically imposing as the title character. if you havent watched the first season i cannot recommend it enough.

I like Ritchson but he just sounds like a dumb guy reading a smart guy's lines.

Just finished Season 1. I liked it. Far from perfect and kind of silly in spots (especially the finale boss fights) but enjoyable.

Hey, mods: http://forums.theskyiscrape.com/viewtop ... it=Reacher

Anyway, just finished season 2. This show is a big, stale fart but an easy to watch one.

Let me share a pretty cool cosmic coincidence.

Tonight my wife and I watched the 6th and 7th episode of season 2. It’s so dumb, but it’s enjoyable.

After we were finished, my 14 year old asked if we could watch a good movie together. I figured it was a good time for him to finally see “A Bronx Tale.” It’s an all-timer for me. My wife had never seen it either. They both loved it.

Anyway, there is a scene where some kid is trying to sell guns on the street, and the kid is the actor who plays Detective Russo on Reacher. His real name is Dominic Lombardozzi. Anyway, I just thought it was an incredible coincidence that in one night we watched him in roles 30 years apart.

The show is forgettable fun like the books.

Season 3 is going to be based on Persuader.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Finally getting around to watching this season. Last night while watching my wife commented on how huge Alan Ritchson is and said he must have played football at college or something. I looked it up - he got his college scholarship for singing - not something I would have picked given a lifetime of guesses

He’s massive. He was in that new Guy Ritchie movie recently. He just towers over everyone

Didn’t he get bigger somehow in Season 2? He’ll be Hulk-proportioned in Season 3.
