Nueva vida en Ransom Canyon

Could've been good but something's off kilter.

The best episode was the rodeo (5?) one. And what happened to the 2nd bad ombré?

Had a few good twists but missing chemistry.

Good actors in it but maybe it's the writing...because something doesn't gel. Sadly it's supposed to be Texas but filmed elsewhere. Hard to believe some events, as in aftermath of tornado; dang, the town cleaned up fast.

Not enough dance hall scenes; only saw one act. Later scenes looked like it was just a large diner.

There was a lot of hype for this but the series didn't live up to it. Yellowstone meets Virgin River? Nah. Hallmark version of Virgin River.

Gorgeous cast and setting with surprisingly great romances and intriguing Texas small town drama. I have been a Josh Duhamel fan since he was Leo duPres on All My Children 25 years ago because he's such a tall handsome dreamy leading man. And I have been a fan of Minka's ever since Friday Night Lights. Their incredible chemistry and relationship is the heart of the series for sure. There's so much longing and love there. Josh and Minka truly are incredible. Can't wait for more Quinn and Staten.

Also loooved the relationship between Ellie and Yancey, and Lucas and Lauren. Seriously, the romances and relationships on this series are so good, there really isn't a weak link at all in the bunch. The show is so SO bingeable and rewatchable. I want S2 now Netflix!!

The thing I love about this so far is it is not trying to be Yellowstone or any similar spinoff. It is more family friendly than Yellowstone. The content is not so heavy and depressing to get through. It is just what I felt it would be, a more mellow, enjoyable story with good acting that has kept me wanting to come back for each episode.

The acting by Josh D is great for his character. I feel they could have lingered on the events in his life early on a bit longer for an emotional connection it.

The feel of the show has a mild flavor of something like Virgin River, but not nearly as Hallmark feeling as that. This show in my opinion is right down the road of what fans of a western drama are looking for. Don't go into this show looking for the grit, turmoil, intensity of Yellowstone. Come with an open mind for something enjoyable, and just a good watch.

It is quite slow at first, but it gets better. This show is one of them where you're not really sure at the beginning, but then it gets better as it goes on. I think it's trying to be like Yellowstone, but it's nothing like it. If you're looking for a country, cowboy vibe type of show, this isn't really for you. If you're looking for a drama with a little bit of country vibe, this is probably gonna be your new obsession. I'm not gonna spoil anything, but let's just say the first 35 mins of the 1st episode is a little bit of a snooze fest. But, i will say no more, this is a watchable series to binge.

So far, this series is much better than Virgin River. The writing, characters, and acting are all just better. The characters are flawed but likable. The actors are a higher quality and not as cheesy. The cinematography is beautiful (much like Virgin River.) And there's just a hint of the feel of "Friday Night Lights." I really enjoyed the first season. My only worry is that it has already showed some signs of repetitiveness with the same couples breaking up and getting back together over and again because of a "misunderstanding," So I'm hoping that won't happen too often next season. Looking forward to it!
