Nope. However, did start watching Reacher. So preposterous I could not even get thru Episode 1. How Lee Child could allow his main character’s portrayal turn utterly stupid with acting so bad you can almost see the cue cards the actors are reading is beyond me. If that’s a #1 show, David’s gonna slay Reacher.

I thought Reacher sucked, even before the lead actor came out as a Trump-hating libtard. Terrible acting, writing, story line, attention to detail, everything. The whole package stinks. Reminds me of a terrible 80s straight-to-video D-list action flick.

My wife, unfortunately, loved it and wants to keep watching it. I told her she could watch it during the day while I was at work.

You think Season One was over the top, try Season Two.

“However, did start watching Reacher. So preposterous I could not even get thru Episode 1”

i assume you’re talking about season 3; season 1 was tolerable ...

however, season 2 was one of the absolute worst, most ridiculous shows ever ... i’m pretty sure we never finished the season ... as you say, wooden “acting”, ridiculous dialog, disjointed story-telling, and in every situation, every character would ALWAYS make take the stupidest possible action and/or make the stupidest possible decision ...

this show had to be written by 20-something year olds that knew absolutely nothing about anything ... [my favorite example of stupidity was when Reacher drowned one of the bad-guy minions in a pool of LIQUID concrete one night that had been poured the day before ... i think that’s when i quit watching]
