REVIEW: Reacher – Season 2, Episode 5, “Burial”
“Burial” moves the second season of Reacher along at a breakneck pace, clearing up more aspects of the mystery while throwing curveballs to heroes and villains alike, and all with a heaping plate of action to keep the pulse racing. There are new wrinkles to character motivations, an entertaining emerging partnership, and the implication that the…
REVIEW: Reacher – Season 2, Episode 4, “A Night at the Symphony”
“A Night at the Symphony” is a legwork episode, with Reacher and his team connecting the dots and slowly forming the picture of the conspiracy that killed their friends.

REVIEW: Bosch: Legacy – Season 2, Episodes 3-10

These can feel like video game sidequests if handled poorly; fortunately, Reacher roots this episode in character, and while some of it is a reiteration…
REVIEW: Reacher – Season 2, Episode 1, “ATM”
As Christmas approaches and 2023 winds down, Amazon gave us a stocking stuffer to end a mostly disappointing entertainment year on a high note: season 2 of Reacher, or at least the beginning of it. Based on Lee Child’s series of mystery novels, Reacher follows the exploits of Jack Reacher, a former military police officer who…
