Shows that feel likeReacher (2022–)
If you loved Reacher, the closest series we have are Shooter (2016), Person of Interest (2011) and Prison Break (2005). All three share Reacher's kinetic and epic feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Bodyguard (2018).
If Reacher hit the spot, these will too

A former military specialist framed and hunting the people responsible
The difference: Conspiracy thriller, and far less enjoyable company

A lethal drifter intervening where the law can't
The difference: Surveillance-state premise

One man methodically dismantling a conspiracy
The difference: Serialized escape thriller

An ordinary professional dropped into a conspiracy with real muscle behind it
The difference: Washington thriller machinery, faster and less physical

Specialists out-thinking every room
The difference: Genius-team procedural

A soldier working methodically through the people who wronged his unit
The difference: Humourless and much grimmer, with no wit

A veteran whose competence is the only thing holding a situation together
The difference: Six taut British episodes, much more psychological

The same preoccupation in both: police
The difference: Takes it somewhere less kinetic than Reacher does

An ex-military man dispensing violence the law will not
The difference: Marvel, angrier, and driven by grief rather than principle

A lone investigator trusting instinct over every official story
The difference: Anxiety instead of catharsis — nobody gets punched through a wall

Competence porn under pressure
The difference: First-responder ensemble

Tactical precision with a moral code
The difference: Team-based procedural
