I'm halfway through binging Season 1 of Reacher.
I'm not a fan of Ritchson's acting, though he walks a little more normally in Season 3.
Anyway, Willa Fitzgerald steals every scene she's in.
Without her, that would have been a far less entertaining season.
Season 2 notwithstanding, the nature of the books' storyline means we won't see her again, which is too bad.
So seeing Malcom Goodwin (Oscar Finlay) in Season 2 was a pleasant surprise.
I'm only three episodes into Season 3, but it looks better, so far, than the mess that was Season 2

I’ve been working my way through watching the shows that, for various reasons, I never got around to watching before. I’m currently working on Netflix shows (Cobra Kai, Stranger Things) with the intent of cancelling that service when I’ve finish.
From there, I intend to move on to the Amazon shows I’ve missed out on, Reacher being one of them. I’ve read a number of the Reacher novels and am curious to see for myself how the show compares to the books.

I assume that she is portraying agent Irish Bahstahn?
Don't know her actual name.

I'm waiting until Season 3 is all done so I can binge watch as I did with 1 and 2.
Good to know Ritchson's walk has improved.
And I wholeheartedly agree about Willa.

I'm on the third episode too. I empty my brain before I watch stuff like this. I know how to squeeze maximum enjoyment out of these things. I do also feel that Malcom Goodwin is a key piece of the series. He fleshed that character out so well.

REALLY enjoying The Rookie and High Potential.
Huge fan of The Rookie.
A great ensemble cast.
Bradford is The Man.
Chen has an expression for just about every word said.
Lopez has a wicked sense of humor.
Everyone is great.
The way all the arcs progressed was done surprisingly well.
I'm enjoying High Potential but I'd like to see Olson tone it down a bit.
In some scenes she's really good, in others just a liiiiiiiitle outside.
Daniel Sunjata is good.
I remember him from the few episodes of Rescue Me that I watched, under mild protest.
