According to Variety, Reacher Season 3 attracted a staggering 54.6 million viewers worldwide in its first 19 days. This figure not only surpasses the viewership of Season 2 by 0.5% within the same timeframe but also indicates the series' growing popularity. Reacher's appeal extends beyond the U.S., with more than half of its audience coming from international markets, particularly strong in the U.K., Germany, and Brazil.
For comparison, the series 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 the 11 days following its August 2024 premiere.
IGN's review of Reacher Season 3 awarded it an impressive 8 out of 10, noting, "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 confirmed, with the green light given before the premiere of Season 3.
