After E2 I may have to amend my opinion of Neagley's writers. She's generally obnoxious and unlikable. The amount of shite a Chicago detective would take from some PI who's never been a cop is......a teensy bit less than what they portray.

I have one episode left to go. Like you said, Neagley is unlikeable, but the show and plot itself is pretty good. I’m liking Keno and the pretty secretary lady.

For me that's a maybe. I haven't lost interest yet but it's sliding.

So far Neagley, a former MP (E7 in the books but they promoted her to E8) has crazy investigative skills that put her in a different league than the Chicago PD, she's a trained arsonist of some sort, a master of hand/hand combat, and they insinuate she's also a super-sniper.

I get that it's fiction and nobody wants to watch anything about the life of the average PI, but a little realism would help. If you don't know much about the military (I don't mean that as a negative) a lot of it probably doesn't catch your attention like her generally being a bitch does.

No offense taken. I’ve definitely noticed that the writers wrote her as an indestructible boss bitch. And yeah, I hate pretty much everything about her, but the whole Echo Canyon farm stuff going on is neat and has my attention.

It's got Dewey Crowe, it can't be that bad.

It's better than Season 4 of Reacher, which was stupidly awful.

I never had a prob with Neagley. She & Reacher worked well together (in the small doses we got).

I just recently finished binging season 4. It was entertaining even though some things were over the top. The Asian girl (Agnez Mo)

What was the point of the 1 eared guy coming back and how did he follow him. Why does he need to be included in the ending? It was not needed and just added to the ridiculousness of the entire episode. Of course the Asian chick surviving a 3 story fall. Just absurd. If they continue down this route of idiocy in the fights and so many last minute saving of Reacher's life, I'm going to punchout.

When it happened, my first assumption was they had to find a way for Jacob to get some sort of revenge. Could not let the episode end with Reacher taking them both out

I do not know much about the military, but I can easily see how much BS and fluff they add to her character. With that said, they need to make her some sort of super soldier/investigator because she checks enough boxes.

As others pointed out, if you can get past her ridiculousness, the storyline is actually pretty good. Have 2 more episodes left.
