Here’s what we know about the return of the BBC’s hit detective series<\/a><\/p>\n “Spinoffs can be hit-or-miss, but Neagley definitely hits its mark,” agreed the Seattle Times<\/a>. “It remembers that Neagley isn\u2019t Reacher, no matter their similarities. It leans into Reacher\u2019s strengths, but it\u2019s not afraid to try a few new things.”<\/p>\n “Neagley Season 1 is an absolute success,” read a review from But Why Tho?<\/a>. “The first season proves Frances Neagley can carry a show on her own and is more than just Reacher\u2019s prot\u00e9g\u00e9 and friend.”<\/p>\n Reacher, based on the Jack Reacher novels by Lee Child, has so far aired four seasons since its launch back in 2022. Starring Alan Ritchson<\/a>, it too has had widespread success, with seasons two and three hitting a series peak of 98% on Rotten Tomatoes.<\/p>\n Sten appeared as Frances Neagley in seasons one, two and three.<\/p>\n Neagley is streaming on Prime Video now.<\/p>\n Visit our Streaming Guide<\/a> now to see at a glance where you can view ALL your favourite shows and movies.<\/p>\n The new edition of Legends, a 100-page celebration of Dolly Parton<\/a>‘s life, is here.
