I saw some people saying this is a more realistic version of reacher..
well, the concept of a 250lb muscular guy who does not lift weights and eats like a child is already extremly unrealistic.. so we ignore that..
about the fights.. it makes sense that a very strong dude with special forces training (and let us ignore the military police thing.. and even he was made CID like john puller.. he would not do what he does in the books) to pretty much obliterate every guy he was in a fight with.. so instead of making ridiculous fight scenes where reacher suddenly gets incompetent like the crow bar fight where before that he offs 4 or 5 guys easily with cqc but then he forgets how to fight and gets thrashed around by a skinny guy. Luckily for reacher, his forearm is made of adamantium so he was ok later on..
anyway, if you want to tone it down the fights.. simply do not make it often, make the bad guys get him by surprise or just by sheer number of goons being sent at him to make him tired..
the bad thing about reacher is since the story needs to develop faster, end in a matter of days, they cannot make reacher get hurt too badly.. god forbid get show and outta commission for weeks..
I assume they will make him settle down into a different small town temporarily and solve whatever problem he runs into every season.
So the only recurring characters would be neagley and whoever special investigators appear throught the seasons..
that is unfortunate.. i kinda like finlay and roscoe was alright with reacher.
Lets go to season 2!
Cheers!
