What a great show. At times very slow, but that also was necessary as a scene setter. I will put this series on equal footing to the series 1883, which I also rated highly. Ms. Emily Blunt is obviously not just an excellent actress, but as producer of this show, she is showing her talents in many other ways. In some ways this series actually surpass 1883, and is also a bit more believable in terms of the roles played by the respective main actresses. Although this show is regarded as a fiction western, in many ways it exposes the atrocities committed by many of the early settlers, and the harm done to the Indians, now of course called native Americans, which is an insult in itself.
