his years spent with the 1110th yeah he hated being a dead the real war was at home I was away with Mikey and Provo helping my sister with our mom early onset dementia golly I tried Calvin for a few days and no return calls it’s not like him so I started to worry called NYPD they just said he could have been out on a Case cuz he was a pi or maybe he was out partying because his wife and kid were out of town wow do you think that’s what he was doing out partying with
the wrong crowd tell him to stay in school I came back early to find our home ransacked nothing was taken were you aware of any cases France may have been working on he never brought work home when he was here he wanted to be 100% present for me what a good guy seems like her life was a living hell but she had a great husband yeah the most baggage with family but my hobby were any other members of the 110th working with him I don’t know maybe there’s something in his office there you go a

whatnot I I am looking forward to to how the setting uh it’s again we’ve started off in New York it seems like there’s at least a potential that we might stay there in the first season we were so immersed in the atmosphere of margrave and I hope that we can get you know more of just that unique atmosphere again um but yeah I don’t know it’s just great to be back in and among the characters of this world it’s a lot of setup and stuff like that we’re just meeting the key players and getting the
lay of the land yeah um so you know I mean I I feel like this is a good starting point for this season I’m not like oh my God this is among the top episodes of Jack Reacher but uh but I’m thrilled you know this gave me a lot of the things I would hope for upon re-entry and now I’m just excited to see how the mystery grows and and grabs me and pulls me in with the blend of personal and badassness yeah yeah I mean I know we’re talking about most people prob just watch
the first they what they releas three yeah um and most people probably already watching finish the other two by now um so I’ll keep whatever slight criticisms or concerns uh tempered because I’m like well let’s just see they released a few out on top for a reason right yeah uh but for a premier episode a great just return for Allen richson again uh love the guy so much and he uh that loneliness in the past couple years he has significantly buffed up compared to Jack reach or never go back that’s sophomore entry in Tom Cruz
entry um it’s it was it’s fun because in that movie they had the whole he walks up to a guy in a car window smashes it yeah like nobody’s business and and they open with this one this is the sophomore one but this is way better already than all of that yes was a terrible movie but I I loved I love I love the fact that we’re getting him and neie uh neie right you don’t pronounce the G uh him and and neie partnered up together and just thinking about how they are evolving Jack from
the first EP first season he’s he’s he’s kept more at at a distance and at a mystery and then oh you’re compelled by the personal relationship between him and his brother and even though he’s kept at arms length you’re like I’m gravitated towards this buff mysterious Wanderer because clearly he is feeling the anguish of the loss of his his brother and now they’re keeping that loss going uh with other brothers and sisters uh the ones that he served with together but he was also the leader of and it’s an interesting um relationship of sorts because
while he whilst he was the leader he wanted to be seen as an equal it seems like you know like yeah if I if I give a command you got to obey the command however Hees like don’t call me major don’t call me sir we are we are equals here and and trust my judgment but don’t fear my rank and much it seems like everyone really looked up to him the one who died is the one who most wanted to be him is the one who most looked up to him and last season he wanted
to be so much like his brother and now he has to it starts off with avenging the one who uh wanted to be like him the most and so it’s it’s cool like Dove tale of a story so I think I feel like storytelling Wise It’s appropriate to go down this path and then to get these flashbacks flushing out his time in the military fleshing out his time as a major I think is really cool there there’s a lot of interesting ingredients that I’m excited to see how the recipe ultimately Cooks by the end and
uh action violence yeah all strong stuff I do think that it would be kind of a a mistake to compare the um the the first episode of like because your pilot like you really got to make a bang and you know uh but then for a first episode of a season two where you’re airing a few on the same day you you already have the audience his faith of like well let’s just play it out you know yeah where like in the in season one you got to like really got to hook you on that
first episode cuz that pilot was like near perfect right yeah and it’s got to be like a little short film almost yeah yeah where whereas like the so I’m trying to understand some of the stylistic choices a little bit better so I’m like okay so we’re in the flashbacks of the military we’re in green it makes sense army people all right I got it and then we’re in the blue of the New York New York Vibe all right sweet I get it we in La we’re in that yellow totally so I’m trying to understand the
visual language a little bit I don’t know if it’s just like neat cinematography choices of what they’re doing but you know the music was something that was so integral to last season uh of of something that created such an atmosphere to it and like the the soundtrack was was completely intentional and in tune with the character as well and here I’m trying to just kind of grasp I don’t know if I’m overthinking it but the shows kind of made me pay attention to the music considering what they did in the first season of like what
are these tracks you know like well do the tracks have any meaning like how they had in last season you know it does make me wonder what the shape of this season is going to be like just because this episode is more I guess by comparison to the first season I thought just overall they demonstrated a nice balance of like here are some are like thoughtful character-based scenes that will tie back around to the theme or to the mystery or whatever it is and and and namely among those things they had that thread of Jack
uh and his you know like cultural anthropological interest inic music and like come into this region to learn stuff about such and such a singer and it’s like those those are character ear marks that I thought really fun and enjoyable and I like that this thus far has that same kind of yeah vibrant uh you know assembled soundtrack but it does make me wonder like this felt a little bit more like an episodic show where the first season had a a really nice blend of I mean it’s obviously it’s a very serialized mystery um but
I don’t know that that one felt it carried itself almost like a limited series in a way whereas this one at least just at the outset this episode felt like more of a part of like an ongoing Series in a different way um so yeah it’s like it’s not like it’s totally different or anything like that but it’s much more at least at the outset I think kind of focused in on the plot and these people and it makes sense because they’re so personal to Jack but it is it does make me curious because the
first season yeah had so much of he’s just meeting all these new people and that gives it all this flavor with the mystery and he had that exchange with the girl in the pawn shop um but that’s the only kind of real like we’re interacting with local flavor you know have you seen The Equalizer movies I’ve seen the first one I think okay so in the first equalizer movie I would like and that’s kind of the first season Reacher where so much of you learning about the characters as the other characters learning about him like
this guy is Unstoppable killing machine and he’s a hyper genius and who is he yeah and then and equalizer 2 is when it gets more introspective you’re more from Reacher you’re more from uh Denzel’s perspective in that movie and it becomes more of a character study of him and the now you’re just you’re in on the know of of who Jack Reacher is in this season so I kind of think that’s what they’re doing here yeah first season he is more of a mystery so you’re looking at him from the perspective of a lot of
these other characters and then this season immediately is just kicking off with we’re we’re with him and now we’re getting more personal with him we’re seeing what these other relationships the his friendships are like the communal experience with Reacher is like he’s getting the team is getting back together even though they don’t want to get back together for like Reunion yeah yeah they’re getting back together for uh a very specific cause and and uh it’s going to be rooted in in Vengeance and there’s something linked to their past of something they’ve discovered before whatever yeah
so yeah like it’s it there are aspects of this that I that very much remind me actually of equalizer too and and uh and I I guess I’m just waiting to see how the Ensemble fully flashes out because that was one thing the pilot did in the last one was they made every character like really intriguing right off the toally and and an overall Aura we here we were cutting around to like New York Los Angeles and flashbacks and so there’s yeah there’s an established tone that we that I think just needs a little bit
time to fully settle and breathe and then we will have a better crisp understanding and focus of what to zero in on but uh but you know we got seems like we got a villain set up with Robert Patrick at least what it looks like looks like we got a villain set up with that one dude who’s with passports oh yeah the am guy yeah yeah and then we have uh I like I like I I love the actress who plays Neely I think she’s a great actress and I like the other guy I forget
his name already but I like the other guy yeah he he’s I I can’t the show could go either one or two ways like they’re they’re teasing him to be the guy who’s like a traitor or they want you to think he’s the traitor because he seems like he be the obvious one exactly totally uh but I I I really have no clue and and uh that’s going to be yeah that’s going to be a big part of the fun and I imagine the more of the people if we are if there are more survivors
of uh you know the special investigators out there you know it’ll only be more and more interesting I hope to a get to know them see what they reveal about Reacher and B I don’t know I mean it if we do meet more of him it could be any one of them you know involved somehow CU to your point it does feel a little bit more straightforward yeah and not as much of the unique voice and flavor yeah this feels a little bit more like oh what I imagined a Jack Reacher show would be like
yeah when I was told there’ be a show yeah the first season and then we watched it I was like so much better than I thought yeah this is good but it’s not but uh there is a special unique kind of voice it transcends being an investigative procedural show by having such a great flare for tone atmosphere and characters yeah and I can see all the pieces of that here but yeah I think it is partly because we are going so many places in this first episode and because we do already know Jack uh at
least you know to a a fair enough extent yeah I could see how maybe it’ll take a minute hopefully maybe by episode two even just to kind of just to get that sensibility back because because it does excite me to be like okay so we did that with Mar gev and we really immersed in that environment what’s it going to be like to do that in New York well yeah I mean New York and La that’s kind of it’s just general popul is Metropolis yeah yeah yeah so it’s like how is that how are we
going to get that more unique we’re small town it’s it’s intimate you know yeah there’s yeah there’s that natural sense of atmosphere and personality just by being there you know yeah so much stuff takes place in metropolitan cities and uh this whole review can be rendered pointless why but that’s that’s the thing is when you if this was like the only one they released we could probably talk for longer yeah no but excited I’m going to cut us short because I’m like there’s already another episode it so let’s just see if anything we saying is
anything we have to even be concerned I’m excited regardless yeah guys what you think about the episode leave your thoughts down below uh think you all been support us on patreon pick a name any I’m feeling who am I feeling today I’m feeling Ricardo Martinez Ricardo Martinez you know what you’re getting for Christmas this year you are going to get a hot air balloon that’s right my friend a hot air balloon at your disposal because you did great things for our country and now you got to get the hell out of here get out Dodge
