1883

Haven't seen Yellowstone yet. But started with this Mini-Series. I was emotionally blown away. It grabbed me and held me all night binge watching. This needs to be awarded Best Mini-Series at the Emmys for 2023. It also should give Isabel May Best Actress, Sam Elliott Best Actor, Faith Hill Best Supporting Actress, Tim McGraw or LaMonica Garrett as best Supporting Actor. The whole cast should be awarded Best Ensemble. The Writing should win as well as Direction. This Mini-Series was really nothing sort of a 10 - Total Perfection and realism. Very corse language, but that was how real life was back then. Violent? Yes. Gut Wrenching in parts? Yes, but again the trails going out west was not a joy ride, but an extreme challenge - I highly recommend this show and will continue on with 1923 and Yellowstone. To the Television Academy - Take notice for 2023. 1883 should do a sweep if you really do honor "Performances" instead of being "politically correct".

As a big Yellowstone fan I was really looking forward to 1883 and I was not disappointed! Taylor Sheridan has created another hit show! The cast was even better than I thought. I was a little worried about Tim McGraw and Faith Hill but they were both terrific. Sam Elliot was as great as always and Isabel May is a star in the making. For the people complaining about the language and violence...it's a show for adults so relax. I love everything about this show, the acting, writing, directing, production, cinematography, etc are all excellent!! If you're a fan of Yellowstone or even a western fan in general then this is a must watch!

This could have been fascinating history told in its raw form. Unfortunately, the show loses its identity at certain points through out the season. The show focuses on settlers emigrating the Oregon trail and challenges they face. It then, starts to mix in narrations by a teenage girl named Elsa and her teenage drama issues. At certain points in the show I'm getting confused at who the target audience is? I felt if the writing was a consistent story towards the emigration of settlers it would have been more successful. Instead we are plagued with a mixture of teenage drama issues which becomes tedious to watch at times.

Excellent writing, character development, story telling, and acting, particularly by Dawn Olivieri, the character of Claire, and the great Sam Elliot. Beautiful cinematography and score. I enjoyed the cameos by Billy Bob Thornton and Tom Hanks. The migration west after the Civil War is one of my favorite periods in history, and the brutality of the time period and lawlessness of the Wild West was accurately portrayed.

Just amazing! This group behind Yellowstone and 1883 are just so amazing I can't thank you all enough for putting out a series that we can really dig into and enjoy! I was so enthralled I never wanted it to end. I only wish I could binge the whole season RIGHT NOW. Please keep making series like these. Emotional, heartfelt, relatable, and with so much depth and character! Spectacular acting! I could go on and on! Just WOW thank you. These are the people who should be winning the awards for best series, best script/writing, best acting etc. Etc. A huge thank you.
