"Amazon's Reacher Season 3 Tops Prime Video Viewership Since Fallout"

Reacher Season 3 has taken Amazon by storm, becoming the most-watched returning season ever on Prime Video. In fact, it's the most-watched season on the platform since the release of Fallout, amassing an impressive viewership over its first 19 days.

The series follows the adventures of Jack Reacher, portrayed by Alan Ritchson, a former major in the U.S. Army's military police. As he travels across the United States, Reacher finds himself entangled in various troubles, often through no fault of his own. Known for his formidable strength and sharp intellect, Reacher spends his time dismantling criminal operations and solving complex mysteries.

In Season 3, Reacher faces a new challenge in the form of Dutch giant Olivier Richters, who stands at an imposing 7 feet 2 inches tall. This matchup promises intense action and adds a thrilling dynamic to the series.

According to Variety, Reacher Season 3 attracted a staggering 54.6 million viewers globally within its first 19 days. This figure represents a 0.5% increase over Season 2's viewership during the same period, indicating the show's growing popularity. The series isn't just popular in the U.S.; over half of its audience is international, with particularly strong performances in the U.K., Germany, and Brazil.

For comparison, Fallout garnered 65 million viewers in its first 16 days in April 2024, while The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 2 drew 40 million viewers in just 11 days following its August 2024 premiere.

IGN’s review of Reacher Season 3 awarded it an impressive 8/10, noting that "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."

Looking ahead, fans can rejoice as Reacher Season 4 has already been greenlit, even before the premiere of Season 3, signaling strong confidence in the series' continued success.
