According to Variety, the third season of "Reacher" attracted an astonishing 54.6 million viewers worldwide in its first 19 days. This viewership is nearly as expansive as Reacher's own imposing stature. The season saw a modest 0.5% increase in viewership compared to Season 2 over the same timeframe, indicating that the series continues to captivate a growing audience. Notably, more than half of the show's viewers come from international markets, with exceptional performance in countries like the U.K., Germany, and Brazil.
To put these numbers into perspective, "Fallout" amassed 65 million viewers in its first 16 days in April 2024, while "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" Season 2 garnered 40 million viewers in just 11 days following its August 2024 premiere.
AnswerSee ResultsIGN's review of "Reacher" Season 3 awarded it an impressive 8 out of 10. Our critique highlighted, "Reacher season 3 diverges more from the book upon which it’s based than previous seasons, but Reacher himself is more ruthless than ever and it remains a righteous good time."
Given the resounding success of Season 3, it comes as no surprise that "Reacher" Season 4 has already been confirmed. The green light was given even before Season 3 hit the screens, underscoring the confidence in the series' continued appeal.
