Here we go, started a BIG ONE!
Been meaning to for ages and it was finally pulled from the tv show hat that my roommate and I have. Three eps in, I like it. It truly is a who's who of character actors, garret dillahunt being my fav probably, I always love him
Excited to keep going | |

Through ep 2 now and DAMN Swearengen's a compelling character, I can see why he has so much hype
also I had no idea Olyphant was in this, I guess he's just the official TV western guy between this, Justified and ofc Bounty Law
Nick Offerman's guest appearance was great | |

man I'm really liking this. Through ep 7 now
|
BILL NOOOO :( I liked the way they did that scene, no time to even think about what was happening before he gets shot
also hey Liz Sarnoff wrote this one, that's a name I haven't thought about in a long time |
|
BOI O BOI did this ep feel oddly relevant. The way all the town leaders tried to tweak the language etc to downplay the 'plague' was so real. Wish they would've went even deeper into that tbh, like seeing more of the citizens' reactions |
|
get OUTTA there Alma!!!! I'm getting so nervous for her and Trixie, I'm sure this is gonna end badly for one of the two
The brother/sister arrival is interesting, with them apparently intentionally whoring out the sister on the DL. Curious what their angle is |

I'm so used to westerns having slower paces that this has felt p unique. I guess plot-wise this still moves fairly leisurely, but SCENE/dialogue-wise it feels p rapid fire. I feel like I miss a bit cuz I'll be soaking in what just happened in one scene and we're already diving headlong into another dialogue-heavy scene. AHHHH | |

also Calamity Jane is the best
They've done a good job filling the town with lots of colorful/distinct personalities. Not really a weak link in the bunch. I like Bullock and the Doc a lot too. And Swearengen is still stealing scenes obv | |

She better have a veryyyy strong ep 5-7!
She’s currently mine and my roommate’s least favorite character that we’ve seen in anything in a long time | |

Through ep 4
|
Bill's death was a bummer but they definitely broadcast it all episode so it wasn't a surprise. I had a feeling from ep 1 that he wasn't long for this series, probably partially because I didn't know Carradine was even in this show in the first place but on top of that you could just FEEEEL it coming. Really good ending, the music playing while Dillahunt was being chased through the town. Good stuff
And yeah Jane SUUUUUUUUCKS. We have hated her since her first moment. When the doc tried to watch after the little girl after they brought her to camp we joked about Jane drawing on him for no reason and yelling GET YER DAMN HANDS OFF OF HER! and one second later that is exactly what she did, it was so cringey. We audibly groan every time one of her scenes start. Her voice, walk, attitude..all so bad. Maybe she changes with Bill's death
Funniest character might be the hotel keeper, hes such a hilarious weasel |

This show is god damn great, I'm considering rewatching it so I know what the hell is going on when I watch the movie that came out last year. | |

done with S1, good shit. Definitely a slow burner but the characters make it worth it
|
JESUS that scene with the kids was brutal. Honestly that put Tolliver above Swearengen as far as villainry goes, they're both psychopaths but that was on another level (and at least Al has kinda, sorta been shown to have a softer side)
Kristen Bell was great in that part |
|
Poor Reverend :( His scenes post-tumor were so uncomfortable to watch, that "walk among friends" with Bullock was honestly the most (and one of the few) heartwarming moment of the whole season |
|
lol Bullock becoming Sheriff was telegraphed so hard, I dig it tho. He's for sure one of my favorites
also WHERE'S CALAMITY JANE! Did I miss something?? I think the last scene with her was Charlie scolding her for being drunk, then she just kinda disappeared |
I only looked at the cast listing afterwards, I had no idea Mrs. Garret wasn't played by Carrie Coon (: She looks so alike | |

I'll just watch Fargo S3 or Gone Girl again | |
