This show looks sweet and it is set in Kentucky. Should be interesting.

Chip R · 03-16-2010, 03:11 PM

I am too. I realy grew to enjoy Tim Olyphant as Deadwood went on.

LoganBuck · 03-16-2010, 03:16 PM

I have heard it described as the yang to Sons of Anarchy's ying. Being that the guys of Samcro are 40% good/60% bad, Tim Olyphant's character is supposed to be 60/40 good, kind of like a small town Vic Mackey.

I really like FX programming and will be giving this one a shot. Thanks for the reminder!

Reds4Life · 03-16-2010, 03:58 PM

FX has some really good shows, so I will be watching this one as well to give it a shot. Archer on FX is hillarious.

Can't wait. The DVR is set.

Tom Servo · 03-16-2010, 11:09 PM

Loved it.

LoganBuck · 03-16-2010, 11:22 PM

Absolutely great!

So quotable. I will be watching that episode again.

A breathe of fresh air.

"Should I kill him or wing him?"

"He pulled first, so I shot him."

"Lysol is the best cleaning product ever."

I liked it quite a lot.

Timothy Olyphant is cool as ice. He did great in the Crazies too.

For a first episode it was pretty engaging. Some of the slower parts felt a bit too much like "talking heads" but hey it's the pilot, pace/energy should improve going forward. Definitely going to watch this every week.

Elmore Leonard's stamp is unmistakable. Love his characters.

Timothy Olyphant is a Clint Eastwood in the making down to the flinty stare.

I DVR'd this and looking forward to watching it. I am originally from the area where this takes place,Harlan County,KY. It will be interesting to see if its portrayed accurately. Does anyone know if they filmed any of the shows on site?

A little off topic, but you should take a listen to Kathy Mattea's Coal. Harlan County figures prominently.

Jack Burton · 03-17-2010, 11:56 AM

I thought it was great. The acting by Olyphant & Goggins was excellent. Definitely will continue to watch.

Funny you should mention that. In the recap for the pilot of Deadwood on Television Without Pity, the recapper said, "(H)e's got the squinty, low-talking, high noon thing going on to the extreme. To such an extreme that, if I were mean, I could call him Clench Eastwood."

I DVRed it too and I'm looking forward to watching it.
