Prime Video's action-thriller series Reacher Season 3 remains at the top of the headlines. The third installment premiered in February 2025, and fans have enjoyed the first six episodes.
Notably, Amazon has verified that Reacher Season 3 is currently the most-viewed returning series in Prime Video's history. In just 19 days, the new season has gained an impressive 54.6 million viewers globally.
But getting millions of views is not something new for Alan Ritchson's television series. It debuted in 2022 and became popular not only because the story is adapted from Lee Child's Killing Floor but also because of flawless casting, with every actor making an impression on the audience.
Reacher Season 3 is expected to attract more viewership, further breaking records of acclaimed TV shows. While Ritchson's series tops the chart, other trending shows include Invincible, The Wheel of Time, House of David, and more.

Reacher Season 3 becomes the most-watched TV series on Prime Video

Prime Video's Reacher kicked off with Season 1 following Lee Child's Killing Floor, in which Jack Reacher, a former military police officer, gets wrongly accused of a murder. Since Jack doesn't have a home and roams around the country, he often ends up in chaotic and life-threatening situations.
The second season is adapted from Bad Luck and Trouble, reuniting Jack with members of his former Special Investigations Unit. Season 2 also deals with murder, but this time, a friend. The chapter is packed with action sequences, making it one of the most successful TV series on Prime Video.
Now, in Reacher Season 3, Alan Ritchson is joined by new cast members, including Anthony Michael Hall, Brian Tee, Sonya Cassidy, and Olivier Richters. The ongoing season follows Jack's collaboration with the DEA, only to discover that an enemy from his past is alive.
As previously mentioned, Season 3 has gained over 50 million views in less than 20 days. One of the key elements that make Reacher a hit series is Amazon's dedication to staying true to Lee Child’s novels, which have been well-received by longtime fans.
Additionally, Alan Ritchson has an impressive physique that matches the titular character in Child's books. The actor himself wanted the action scenes to look stylish and true to the book, Persuader.
While talking about the third season, Ritchson mentioned it to be:
"A faithful approach and the kind of thing that you see when you read the description of the action in the books."
With the unavoidable action scenes, the story keeps fans engaged with gripping crime and mystery. Similar to the previous chapter, Reacher Season 3 will also conclude with its eighth episode arriving on March 27, 2025.
