Prime Video Renews Reacher Spinoff Neagley for Season 2

Prime Video has renewed Neagley, its Reacher spinoff starring Maria Sten, for a second season after the series’ strong debut, the streaming service announced Thursday. The renewal keeps the story of Frances Neagley, a former military colleague of Jack Reacher who works as a private investigator, in development for another installment. Amazon reported that the show attracted 40 million viewers globally in its first 13 days after its September 16 premiere. That figure and the platform’s rankings are company-reported, and the available accounts describe Neagley’s debut position differently. Some place it fourth among Prime Video’s original-series debuts, while another calls it the service’s most-viewed original-show debut. The underlying viewing data and chart methodology were not provided, so the precise ranking is unclear. The performance accounts also say the first season entered the top 10 of Prime Video’s most-viewed original-series seasons. Amazon further reported that 52 percent of the audience was international, though the measure behind that share was not specified consistently.
