"So good! Finished it in a few days. I want more."

" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"This is a spectacular miniseries. Jeff Daniels is so creepy as a vicious psychopath of a gang leader."

"Alright so, first off I am not a big Western fan but I heard good things about this show so I thought I'd give it a shot (pun intended). It is a good show, I enjoyed it. A couple of things bug me about it though. First and foremost the trailers and marketing lean pretty heavily into the "a western town full of only women" theme. So I went into this show expecting a story about a bunch of out-of-their-depth-but-scrappy ladies making it work somehow. To my surprise all the women in this show are only secondary characters who, in some cases sure are pretty scrappy or even awesome (looking at you grandma) but at the end really need the guys to set things right. That really stuck in my craw a bit. Second, the bad guys are a bit too mustachio-twirly bad for my taste, although they do try to give Griffin some layers which I appreciated but there seemed very little rhyme or reason to when he decided to be the benefactor or psychopath. So yeah, well done show, great production value, some good characters and queer and black representation but also some pretty tired old clichés and falling a bit short of what they actually advertise for. 8 out of 10."

"Top-notch modern western miniseries. One helluva shootout scene at the conclusion. Must watch."

"Powerful but good. A lot better than I thought it would be. Worth the watch. "

"I just finished this, and there are few things in media, both movies and music, that I call "perfect." This is one of those things. I think this is a perfect example of why miniseries are a good idea. What would be too much for a four-hour movie, or not enough for a 24-episode season, it fits perfectly in seven episodes. Like I said, I just finished this after starting it this morning, so maybe I'm missing something, but there's nothing that's wasted at all. I won't say too much, but I'll say this: I don't know if I should recommend that you ignore the "Western" label or if you should keep it in mind. My best guess is to say you should ignore it while watching, but consider it so in hindsight. I can't certainly say that the cinematography stands out, but that's only because I feel that it's so subtle. The only trace of its greatness is that, at various points throughout, it had me looking for meaning the frame. Sometimes I found it, sometimes I didn't, and sometimes, it left me only suspecting, with no definite answer; just a hunch. I'm no movie expert, but that's evidence enough for me. Lastly, I'll mention the romance. It realistic in giving you what the situations allow. It doesn't get too melodramatic, it cuts it short where humn nature naturally would, and where it gives, it gives only what's needed for you to feel and for it to stick. If you have half a day to get comfortable enough to watch this and let it sit a bit after, I say you choose this for you binge."

"This was well written and brilliantly executed"

"Riveting, sprawling western with a fabulous cast including Jeff Daniels as THE bad guy, a magnetic Scoot McNairy and a fierce Merritt Weaver. Watched all the way through 3x so far. Think I’ll start again."

"Pretty good. I would and should watch again"
