One of my favorite aspects of "Reacher" is its sense of humor. The show, which recently premiered its third season on the 2025 TV schedule, knows how to laugh at itself, and I always love to see it. One of the best examples of that this season comes by way of a running gag about Alan Ritchson’s character trying and failing to get sleep. Turns out, the actor behind the titular character has a personal tie to the bit too, and he told me why he’s been having fun with this ongoing joke.
Let’s face it, "Reacher" doesn’t have time for sleep, especially this season. He’s a man on a mission, and he and his team are working really hard to find Teresa and figure out what’s going on with Beck’s business. So, sadly, sleep isn’t a luxury he can afford, even though he makes it very clear he would like some.
