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 numbers during the same period, indicating the show's growing popularity. The series isn't just a hit in the U.S.; over half of its audience hails from international markets, with significant viewership in 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.

IGN's review of Reacher Season 3 awarded it an impressive 8/10, praising the series for its divergence from the source material and Reacher's heightened ruthlessness. The review concluded, "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 its success, it's no surprise that Reacher Season 4 has already been greenlit, even before Season 3 commenced, ensuring fans more of Reacher's thrilling escapades.
