1883 is one of the most beautifully written, filmed and acted works I have ever seen. And it's on TV.
I see a few (very few) critical reviews here and I guess that is to be expected. I, myself, cannot find very much to criticize in this work. It's also important to note this series was created, written, cast, filmed, etc. in an extremely short time frame.
Most important to me, however, is the writing of Taylor Sheridan. I appreciate really good writing and I now consider him to be a genius.
