This Prime Video show has proved to be one of the most popular on streaming in recent months and fans are hotly anticipating a spin-off expanding the world.

One of the most common issues we face in the modern world with all the streaming platforms available, is well, what to watch.

Something that should be so simple often leaves us unsure of whether we can be bothered to turn the TV on in the first place.

But with that said, there's certainly one show that features on Prime Video that might be worth your time, since it has proven to be immensely popular.

So popular in fact, earlier this year in March, the show was the most-streamed show with 6.6 billion minutes of viewing time racked up from fans, according to Nielsen’s TV gauge report.

According to a follow-up report by Nielsen, the show has racked up a total of 13.3 billion minutes viewed to round out the first half of 2025 - pretty impressive stuff to be honest.

The show in question is none other than Prime’s Videos Reacher, which has so far released three seasons, with a fourth on the way.

As well as the upcoming series, the show is also getting a spinoff series titled Neagley, this time focusing on the character Frances Neagley from the show, taking a look at everything she has learned from Reacher as she deals with her own issues.

So, it is safe to say the show is pretty popular, and on social media, fans have been singing its praises, most notably for the casting of Alan Ritchson.

Many have said that he most closely represents what the character is described as being in the book series by Lee Child.

One Twitter user commented: “Jack Reacher is gritty crime thriller but also he can punch straight through a car window.”

One fan of the show said: “Jack Reacher can punch straight through a car window. There's nothing like it and it's perfection.”(Prime Video)

Another wrote: “I'm enjoy this Jack Reacher series. They casted the perfect actor cause he definitely fits the description from the books.”

A third wrote: “The fact that they thought Tom Cruise would make a good Jack Reacher in the movie is absolutely hilarious. Especially after seeing Alan Ritchson in the series. He’s perfect.”

With another adding: “If anyone is on the fence about warching this series, I'm going to just say do it! Alan Ritchson is an amazing actor who really encompasses what Jack Reacher stands for. It's one of the best series on Prime.”

So, before the spin off series drops, it might be worth checking out the show that has gone fans in a frenzy.
