    I opened up Netflix and saw this sitting at #1. Once I checked RT and saw the audience score was 25% higher than the critics (88% vs. 63%), it's automatic for me to give it shot when I like the genre.

    Very good IMO.

    It's a western based in Utah with some very unique historical aspects I had not considered before.

    Went down a rabbit hole a bit reading about the history this show is based on. Looks interesting.

    It’s pretty brutal. I’m enjoying it.

    He's been in some good stuff, but If anyone should've been cancelled...

    EDIT: Oops, I was thinking Emile Hirsch.

    Will definitely watch at some point.

    Thought it was decent. Fair amount of action, and not too many episodes.

    I loved that movie and actually bought it on DVD.

    Hirsch had a few drinks then violently attacked a woman after she brushed him off.

    Seems strange to me that other celebs have been completely ostracized for less but he's still acting. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Hope he's turned his life around...

    Being a 35-year-old intern is time-consuming

    "Blood and Thunder" is a good one...it's a great book all-around. "Oh What A Slaughter" is a great Larry McMurtry history about that and things of that nature....oh and my old friend Gwynne's "Empire of the Summer Moon"

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_and_Thunder_(book)

    If you (this is the universal "you") like historical fiction about Texas, and consider yourself a Texan, you should read "The Son" and "Gates of the Alamo"

    About halfway through.... pretty enjoyable and definitely has that Revenant movie vibe to it.

    It's from Peter Berg the Friday Night Lights guy, hence the Tim Riggins connection.
