    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Anson Mount played the video game Red Dead Redemption (2010) for about a month before his audition, and he has been often told that his character bears resemblance to John Marston, the protagonist of the game.
    • Goofs
      A lot of characters in the series use Remington 1858 New Army revolvers, however almost all of them have brass frames. The 1858 Remington was never made with brass frames, only modern unofficial replicas of the 1858 Remington have brass frames.

    BEautiful!!

    Just one word...Beautiful! I'm from the Netherlands and thanks to IMDb I started watching. And was hooked from the start. It reminds me of the comics Comanche, Durango and Blueberry of Flemish authors Greg and Hermann. The classic western tale not sparing us the harsh reality of racism, bloodshed for personal gain and 'immorality'. Even the cinematography is comicbooklike. Especially Cullen reminds of the character Red Dust in the comicbook Comanche. Very interesting characters all in all. My favourite (they're all my favourite, but i love this one) is the The Sweed. What a smooth yet chilling personalty!! They (casting) couldn't have done a better job with him.

    LOVE THIS SHOW and every week I wait with anticipation for the next episode. Thanks AMC. For those who are curious, just check it out, you won't be disappointed.
