I think the indians have a slight british accent

I'm enjoying the show, but I don't know how long they can drag out the revenge plot. Seems like a good season one overarch, but they'll need more if they make it to a second season

I've watched the first two episodes, fairly entertaining show. It'll be interesting to see how it develops over the rest of the season

as a sucker for westerns i'm in on this 100%. There are some big issues with it, especially Colm Meaney, but it's a genre that's been missing from TV for too long so i'm just going to roll with it.

I am enjoying the show but the Irish brothers are awful

The Irish brothers aren't any flatter or more poorly developed than any of the other characters (save the Swede). I've been pretty disappointed with this show so far...it's passable but doesn't get my loins tingling like Deadwood.

^you're right on that one. i like the show, but i think they should have left Bohannon to be more of a mystery, and slowly peel away the layers during the season. we kind of know his thing now...he wants revenge, and he's tough? feels like they gave away too much of his persona too quickly, and that's really all there is to him...i hope something comes along that adds another dimension to his character.

it also seems like he's killed everyone related to Meridian except Harper, so if Revenge is the driving force behind the character what happens when he takes out the last guy? Settles down with goldilocks and bosses around some Negros to build a railroad?

I saw a commercial on AMC a bit ago that definitely had Command and Conquer music playing. bleh, hell march. Took me too long to figure that out.

Pretty cool, though. I'll start watching just because that music was used.

The main character reminds me of John Marston. I try and stay away from this thread because of spoilers, (I usually watch a week late).........but.......












what did the woman do with the survey plans after she arrived at the camp? I must have missed it somehow.

Either I missed it too, or we don't know yet.
Unless she buried them when she was digging around those burial plots on the edge of town. She likes to take walks it seems.

yeah definitely one of the better episodes of the show so far.

i've been waiting to either see a flashback or hear the story of exactly what happened to his wife/son/farm. it's hard to understand a character's revenge when you have not been exposed to the trigger of said revenge. it's about time they expounded on that part of the plot.

interesting to see how the swede plays out next season. he seems like a character meant for a one-off season appearance but was kept alive due to popularity.

he'll probably go all bounty hunter on cullen

also I imagine cullen finds out that the sergeant who was discharged was replaced with a new sergeant so he'll have one more person to hunt down

Random Q...how does the train turn around? Is there another Engine car on the tail end of the train they just never show?

I know turntables and track layouts exist to easily turn a train around, but this is just a single track.

haven't you seen the commercials for that "behind the scenes" thing... they clearly lift the train onto the tracks with some sort of crane.
