Amazon Prime is in the midst of Season Four of their number one hit Reacher.
Based upon the Jack Reacher novels by Lee Childs, the season began with Episode One on August 12, and will end after September 16 with Episode Eight.
Season Four is centered about and around Philadelphia (with some Washington, D.C. sites), which should be especially interesting for our readers.
Jack Reacher, a retired Major and military hero, encountered a distraught woman on a subway, which brought him into a spiraling drama involving the woman, her family, and the usual motley crew of friends, cohorts, enemies, frenemies, New Jersey police, Philadelphia Police, the CIA, a political candidate and his stone cold wife, and varieties of exotic assasins all seeking out a computer jump drive which must have some important shite on it for people to murder for it. And there are many gruesome murders, be sure of that.
Fans of the show know that the strong, tall, handsome Alan Ritchson channeling Reacher will eventually be the victim of some hot lady who will seduce him while he is wet, shirtless, bleeding, and brooding. We had to wait until Episode Four for that.
The costars are complex and excellently played, as we learn more about each along the way. Without giving too much away, one spoiler alert. If you’re going to kill Reacher, don’t let him get close to you, because he can strangle you through jail cell bars and … well … you may lose some body part.
Alan Ritchson exudes such noble innocence in an altogether ludicrously hot and dangerous man, fans of his character whether men, women, and those in between and over, fall under his spell. He sports baggy threads, so when his full flowering beauty is bared, your gaze is riveted upon his lovely flesh, and the rippling musculature beneath. Aaahhh. Reacher is Prime’s number one hit show for very good reasons.
"Karambits and Pieces," Episode Four, aired August 18. Right now, you can view all four episodes, including the previous three: –
"City of Brotherly Love," Episode 1; "Cage Fight," Episode 2; and "One Small Step," Episode 3.
Airing later will be Episode 5, "Bridge," out August 26; Episode 6, "Plum Out of Luck," out September 2; Episode 7, "Vote for Sampson," September 9; and the final Episode 8, "Cut," September 16.
I suggest binge watching the available episodes, all less than 50 minutes each, and waiting to binge again after September 16.
Reacher Season Four will sate your appetites for violence, bloodshed, suspense, thrills and chills, shady politics, crazed cops, even crazier assassins, and that cute, adorable muscle bear Alan Ritchson. We all overlook his psychotic killer side.
Season 5 has already received a green light.
