This impressive figure represents a 0.5% increase over the viewership numbers for Season 2 during the same period, indicating the show's growing popularity. The series isn't just a hit in the U.S.; more than half of its audience comes from international markets, with particularly strong performances in the U.K., Germany, and Brazil.
For comparison, "Fallout" garnered 65 million viewers over its first 16 days in April 2024, while "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" Season 2 attracted 40 million viewers in the 11 days following its August 2024 premiere.
IGN’s review of "Reacher" Season 3 awarded it an 8/10, commending the series for its thrilling narrative: "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."
With such success, it's no surprise that "Reacher" Season 4 has been confirmed, having been greenlit even before Season 3 aired. Fans can look forward to more adventures with Jack Reacher as he continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
