Man-Shaped Truck Rides Train, Kicks Arse, Drives Minivan Covered in Cats in New 'Reacher' Trailer

If you haven't seen the new series of "King of the Hill," you really are missing out on one of the best shows currently on television. But as much as we all love Arlen, Texas, I know that's not what you really want to watch. You want to watch a human bulldozer fight injustice, kick-punch his way through wave after wave of bad guys, right a few wrongs, crash a few cars, and kiss a cutie before sticking his toothbrush in his pocket and riding a bus into the distance. And on August 12, you'll get exactly that, because "Reacher" is (almost) back, baby.

Is there a bloke in a suit saying, "You were in the wrong place at the wrong time, and you saw the wrong thing?" Of course. Does that same suit try telling Reacher to "walk away?" You know it. Does that end well for the suit? Come on. You don't even have to watch the trailer to know the answer to that one. And while it's hard to make a car show about a bloke who refuses to own anything he doesn't need, including a car, you better believe series 4 includes plenty of transport beyond those woke buses he rides from town to town.

Reacher series 4 premieres August 12

If you were hoping for flashy and fast cars, "Reacher" probably isn't for you. That's fine, because Prime Video has other options that are probably a bit more up your street. Instead, at least in the trailer, we get a whole lot of trains. Don't worry, there are cars, too. And not just train carriages, either. Reacher may have joined the war on cars, but he isn't anti-car. He just prefers to "borrow" them when he needs them instead of owning one.

Aside from police cars, government vans, and bad guys in G-wagens, I'm pretty sure I spotted a Dodge Magnum in the alley while Reacher had his shirt off. What can I say? The big man who punches things has taste. As for cars we actually get to see Reacher drive, he doubles down on his excellent taste by pulling up (presumably to save a couple of coppers who got themselves into trouble) in a good, old-fashioned people carrier. That said, while the trailer does specifically call out the cats, I would like to emphasise it features both cats and dogs. It's the little things, you know, big punch bloke?

If you've already read Lee Child's 2009 novel "Gone Tomorrow," you probably don't need to watch the new series of Reacher. But even if you exclusively watch British murder mysteries, tell me this series doesn't look like a cracking good time. Oh, and don't forget that Neagley gets her own spin-off this year, too.
