How to watch Reacher in order

Four seasons, four novels, one drifter — the viewing order in a minute.

Each season of Reacher adapts a different Lee Child novel and tells a self-contained story, so you can start anywhere — but release order works best because Neagley and Reacher's past build up over time. Season 1 (2022) adapts Killing Floor, season 2 (2023) Bad Luck and Trouble, season 3 (2025) Persuader and season 4 (2026) Gone Tomorrow. That is 32 episodes in total. The spin-off Neagley premiered on September 16, 2026, the day of the season 4 finale; season 5 will adapt Make Me.
