@bayimports It’s going pretty good so far. Not too many boobs (well… none
) by episode 3, but the main dude is a lot more convincing than Tom Cruise even if he’s clearly not the 6’5” he says he is.

sounds good, he is supposedly 6.2, so way taller than cruise. look forward to starting

Could go in the doco thread but as it's a six part series I'll chuck it here.
Almost finished I, Sniper.
I watch a lot of true crime stuff and this is easily one of the best and most powerful things I've watched.
The story of the DC Area Snipers, as told probably half by Lee Malvo (the kid), with the rest filled in by law enforcement, emergency services, victims family/friends and survivors.
Brilliantly put together, as gruelling as it is fascinating and some of what you hear from Malvo is pretty tough to hear. Really tough to see the impact it had and still has on survivors, victims family and especially law enforcement.
Edit: Still worth watching if you listened to the recent Payne Lindsey podcast.

Reacher
I've never read these books. Are they like this? I'm like half an hour in and this is some wish fulfilment shit
Giant good-looking weapon is also super smart and also chicks love him instantly. This is like a teenage wet dream.

You just described the books. Every one of them.
I'm 2 episodes in and loving it. So teenager. Wow. Many violent.

@taniwharugby yeah I listened to it also but this was still excellent, I'd highly recommend it.

I read some of the books, couldn't remember though if he was that far on the spectrum (or had a butterfly in his head), but it is pretty close.
Still enjoyable though

Yep. Cool, eh?

Finished Reacher, entertaining first season, loved how he uses a tie. Easy watching, lots of action and dry humour and occasional boobs. Some FX below par, but a fun watch and look forward to a certain season two

Halfway through the last episode and bad guys are about to die in quantity, along with some no-doubt messy shit for the main one.
I'm going to miss this.

It was laugh out loud funny at times. Much better casting, didn't take itself seriously (at times it was lunacy). Amusing and inventive violence, story interesting enough to want to see how it ended.
Wife and I watched it over two evenings, hope they make more.

Apologies if this has been mentioned, but was the entire season of Reacher based on one book?

Yes. So the actor playing Reacher has a job for life...
