What are you watching on Netflix and Amazon Prime?

Do you have a USB port, that is where my wireless keyboard and mouse connect? Warning not all apps will work with the keyboard. But it does work on the internet app on the Samsung TV’s… I tried a wireless keyboard with the little USB thing and it didn't work.

How many have read the books?

Watched the whole thing and enjoyed it.

I found audio books on Youtube.

Saw the trailer, actor has the build and height, not sure about his acting.

I thought he did fine, he's not a new actor he's been around for over 15 years and been in some very well known shows.

Yes, and it's not like Tom Cruise set the acting bar all that high.

He was Thad effin Castle from Blue Mountain State for Pete's sake.

Guys from army over the weekend were talking about that but i'd never seen it.

I don't see a problem with 95gr subsonic 9mm ammo. You just load it down to 1000 fps and there it is. You would probably have to load it yourself since the lightest commercial 9mm subsonic I see is 115gr. I would not expect it to cycle some pistols at that load, even suppressed might or might not have problems.

It would end up being similar to 95 gr subsonic ammo for 380 or 9x18 Makarov, which are both commercially available.

While it may be "nitpicking", Reacher was commenting on a fired bullet recovered from a body with no other info available other than the diameter and weight, so he was stating that 95 grain 9mm ammo in general is subsonic, thus the killer must have used a silencer. The actual murder was shown, the gunman used a suppressed 1911 so 9mm or .38 super.

Yes you can handload 9mm of any weight (or any supersonic round) to be slower than the speed of sound, but the commercially available loads with that weight bullet run around 1200 fps or faster. I doubt a trained and experienced investigator like Reacher would immediately assume one of the lightest, fastest 9mm bullets out there would not have been a standard load but instead a specially handloaded round to make it subsonic specifically for suppressor use.

Watched the entire 1st season and it is worth watching next.

I just hope they do 2 or more installments a year.

I'd hate for it to take 27 years.

Season two will be adapted from the book, "Die Trying".

I don't have Amazon Prime, so I guess I will never see it.

Just started it. Wow! I get it, you can only have so many streams…

The key is to "pause" or cancel some streaming services while watching others. Once I get bore with the streaming services I have, I rotate.

Someone should start a service that automatically rotates streaming services for you. One payment. You choose the services. You choose the rotation. Money.

I could have gone my whole life and never seen the police chief scene…

"Where the heck are his testicles?"

"In his stomach... you'll find them during the autopsy."

It was in one of the books, graphically described. They didn't need to show that. On TV it seemed more like it was gratuitously gruesome.

I just watched that scene again to see what Ingomike was talking about since it didn't stand out to me at all when watching it. I still don't see the issue. Other than seeing the guy's penis, it wasn't really more graphic than any other adult oriented show I've seen.

What the heck do you watch? That one is pretty in your face, especially with the announcement the testicles were gone while looking at the guy genitals. Watched a lot of adult level TV and had not seen that before…

The only problem I had with the show was the last episode.

The building is on fire and a yhe wife says "Where is Reacher?" Neagly says "Don't worry, he'llget out." A few moments all of the doors blow out and he walks out as thoughnothing happened.

I thought it was worse than anything I saw in John Wick, for example.

I haven't seen it, but for the record? I don't want to see a guy's junk (complete or incomplete) in a movie or otherwise. Lady stuff is just more attractive to me and I have no objections to that.
