According to Deadline Amazon’s Reacher Season three has set a new record as the most-watched returning series ever on Prime Video. With 54.6 million global viewers in its first 19 days, the season marks a slight increase of 0.5% from its previous season, Deadline reports. The season’s success is largely attributed to its strong international performance, with 56% of its audience tuning in from outside the U.S., notably in the UK, Germany, and Brazil.

The third season also surpassed Fallout as the most-watched show on Prime Video during this time window. This trend follows the success of Reacher’s second season, which broke records in late 2023, with the first three episodes surpassing the entire first season’s audience by 50% in just three days.  Deadline has more insights into season three’s U.S. performance will be revealed once Nielsen releases its February 2025 reports.

In Season three, Alan Ritchson (Titans, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire) reprises his role as Jack Reacher, the former military police officer. This time, Reacher goes undercover to rescue an informant held by a dangerous adversary from his past. The season is based on Persuader, the seventh book in Lee Child’s Jack Reacher series. Written by Nick Santora (Prison Break, Breakout Kings) and produced by Amazon MGM Studios, Skydance Television, and Paramount Television Studios, Reacher continues its successful collaboration with Child, Santora, and Ritchson, who also serve as executive producers.

The show’s strong performance is no accident, as the second season set a high bar for the series with a successful debut at the end of 2023. This momentum helped carry Season three to new heights. The increased viewership numbers and international success are a testament to the series’ growing global appeal.

With more data expected to come in the next few weeks, fans and industry experts alike are eager to see how Reacher continues to perform. As the show solidifies its place as a top contender in streaming, the question remains whether it can maintain its dominance in the face of future competition.
