Neagley Spinoff Premieres on Prime Video with 83% Rotten Tomatoes Score

The first season of Neagley, consisting of eight episodes, will debut on Prime Video on Wednesday, September 16, at 3 a.m. PT/12 a.m. ET, coinciding with the finale of Reacher Season 4. This spinoff features Maria Sten as Frances Neagley, a Chicago-based private investigator pursuing justice following a friend's mysterious death. Inspired by Lee Child's Jack Reacher series, it represents the inaugural spinoff centered on a Reacher character. Alan Ritchson is seen briefly in the trailer and may play a supporting role. Following the review embargo lift on Tuesday morning, the show has garnered an 83% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes from 12 reviews, which is lower than the 92%, 98%, 98%, and 94% ratings of the first four Reacher seasons. Critics like Dominic Baez from the Seattle Times commend its effectiveness, while Alison Herman of Variety criticizes it for lacking the appeal of its namesake. The cast also includes Greyston Holt, Jasper Jones, and Adeline Rudolph.
