US Timeline : Longmire

[Peter_]

Has anyone had the misfortune to watch Longmire, its as dull as ditchwater cannot see it making a second series.

[Tezcatlipoca]

Nope.

It's on a network I've never heard of, and I don't know of any of the cast except for Lou Diamond Phillips and Katee Sackhoff.

[cimt]

You not watch The Glades? That's also on that network. I did watch a bit of the first episode of this but fell asleep.

I watched for Katie Sackoff but it was something to fall asleep to as Cimt did above.

What do you expect from a mid west modern day Sheriff show??? Laser fights and gruesome alien abductions ?????????...

Personally I thought that it set up some of the characters up quite well, the story basis was good and I can see lots of storyline being created with some real development of those characters..

It got a thumbup from me, but then again I don't expect all modern day shows to be purely action based like most people do..

I enjoy a story but found ths dull.

[Kymmy]

It's been one episode which wasn't even a feature length pilot... give it a chance

Personally I found that the first episode set up the main characters extremely well..

• Walt the estranged Sheriff who's only just getting his head back in the game after his wife died.
• Vic the ex-big city homocide detective trying to adjust to the slower pace.
• Cady the sheriffs daughter who might have a few secrets of her own.
• Branch who's the egotistical deputy who thinks he can be sheriff better than anyone else.

Along with a few good supporting characters such as LDP's Henry Standing Bear it should be a good series for those who want to watch a mid west police drama.

It won't be for everyone but to say that it'll probably get cancelled after watching 45 minutes is a bit ridiculous

[cimt]

I actually did fall asleep, just not had time to finish watching it yet. I'll try and get it finished today.

[Kymmy]

Watched #3 of this and it's turned out to be quite good.. Walt's character is every bit as stubborn and mysterious as you'd expect (reminds me of Gibbs from NCIS)

[alferret]

Watching this now.
It ain't that bad, only ep2 for now & shows a lot of promise.

[cimt]

I might have to watch the other episodes then cause I've only seen the first.

I take it you've never watched Smallville as you'll recognise one character (Walt's daughter)

I"ll be honest, I have not watched the show, so will not judge it, but the website does make a point of the show being action packed.

I'll give it a go at some point though. While I like action shows, I also like shows that are not necessarily action packed, but give a good story for the viewer to get their teeth into.

So you keep repeating.

Time to realise that some people actually expect a bit of action, not be bored to sleep.

Some people expect action in Big brother.. doesn't stop them watching it though
