I remember it well, like it was yesterday. Anyone caught this new series yet? First episode was very good and shows a refreshingly non-woke new series.

I'm not a huge fan of Westerns but I did quite like Deadwood and this feels a tad more gritty and violent version of that.

The part where the crowd catches and hangs a pickpocket within moments was shocking and you really felt the brutality of the era

There are a couple of episodes out so far and I am looking forward to more.

Silly question but have you watched Yellowstone yet of which this is the prequel?

Yeah I tried Yellowstone but could not get on with it. It was a little too "American" if you know what I mean. This is more wild west which I can escape into.

I didn't much past the first episode. Maybe I'll give it another whirl

Based on this, I watched the first episode of Yellowstone and nodded off in the last fifteen minutes.

It was like Dallas with cows.

I was the same lol. Maybe I'll try again but I doubt it.

Anyone else find watching this with Subtitles is a must? Half the stuff they say, particularly the old ones is unintelligible. Pop on the subtitles and it all makes much more sense.
