Featured review
I didn't know what to expect when I first started watching the early morning reruns of this series on Talking Pictures TV, but after seeing a number of episodes, I am thoroughly impressed. At only 25 minutes, episodes are short, but the amount of story and intrigue is remarkably high for such a brief running time. The quality is extremely good in general, and many of the episodes are very tense. The acting is also very believable, with the interplay between Clay Culhane and the town Sheriff, who seem to have a slightly difficult relationship (evident in most episodes), being particularly interesting. I am now watching every weekday morning, and having to watch episodes I miss, which are fortunately on You Tube. Love it! Right, back to Red Dead Redemption 2...
