Walker: Independence

What a great start for Walker Independance I loved it. Each character gave us a little look into who they are and I felt invested to find out more about them and what they will bring to the show going forward. The backdrop and costumes are great and reminds me of the old western shows and films. Definitely can't wait to see them all develop as the series goes on especiall Abby, Hoyt, Calian and Augustus . All the cast were great. It was nice seeing another version of Hoyt Rawlins and Matt Barr does it so well. It was nice to see a guest starring role for Mark Shepherd, hope to see him in future episodes. Great start to the series, more please.

As a longtime fan of westerns, I was a prime candidate for Walker: Independence. It's visually beautiful, from the cinematography, to the costumes, to the cast. You get just enough of a taste of each character in the pilot to make you want to see more of each of their stories, and the chemistry between them all is there right off the bat.

The revenge plot is of course well-trod territory, but the mystery behind the motivations for Liam Collins' death present ample opportunity for exploration, especially considering the hints that are dropped in the pilot about certain other characters. It will be interesting to see how the relationships between everyone develop as more is revealed.

Dinged a star because I'm a purist and the modern music cues chaffed a little, but otherwise it was a very enjoyable romp and I'm looking forward to the next installment.

All the promo I'd seen had me already somewhat invested in this show, but now that I've seen the pilot I'm 100% hooked! I'm hooked on the plot, the cast of characters, and the town of Independence itself! It's all so well and beautifully done and you can tell everyone in front of and behind the scenes truly cares about the story and being authentic to the diverse history they're portraying. It's a prequel to Walker, about the start of the Walker family legacy, but is more than capable of standing alone. You don't need to be in love with Jared Padalecki's Cordell Walker to fall for the people of Walker Independence. I love it and can't wait for more!

I think that everyone involved with this has done a pretty great job. They way that it looks and is shot almost makes the show look like it came from a streaming service. The story is intriguing and the characters are all lively and are already getting fleshed out. It's not very often that i can feel attached to a character in a show so quickly, let alone attached to almost all of them. I can't wait wait to see where the story goes and where these characters will go in the future. I just hope that the show can keep up the quality and, if so, I think this could end up being a future classic western.

This new show is so very exciting. Loving all the authenticity they have included and cannot wait to follow the story of these incredible characters and how they are all going to interact as they work to solve the murder of Abby's husband. Hoyt is obviously a character with a lot of depth and a bit of a bad boy but with a good heart. Calian is all heart and torn between his Apache world and his friends. Kate is really a mystery and think her story has some potential twists and turns. Gus I think is trying to decide what is going on and working on the mystery. The new sheriff still appears to be the bad guy but is he? Mark Sheppard as Hagan is a really fun inclusion and look forward to finding out if he is good or bad.
