I'm a real fan of the books and I was pretty weary of watching the new series. Never considered watching the movies. I made my partner watch the first episode first and she thought I'd love it so I gave it a go. Fantastic! Well paced and the guy playing Reacher was amazingly close to the image I had created in my head of the character. And it doesn't try to be anything more than it is-just good entertainment.
Yeah, I enjoyed the series. Hoping we get season 2 soon
