1923

I absolutely love 1923! It's right up there with Yellowstone and 1883. If you're a fan of those two then you'll be a fan of this to. It takes the best of both of those shows and combine it for this one. This is definitely a show for adults with all the violence and language it that's what makes it so good. It's not for children. At this point Taylor Sheridan can do no wrong. He hits home run after home run. I love everything about this show...the acting, writing, directing, production, cinematography, etc, etc. Are all excellent. I mean this stars Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren for crying out loud. For those two A-list actors to do a tv show you know it had to be good. I know those two are going to get all the attention, and rightfully so, but there are just so many other great actors in this. Too many to even name. I can't wait to see more of this series and where it goes.

I generally like Sheridan's because they present multiple viewpoints, we don't necessarily have to agree with. 1883 was a knockout, for story-telling, history, and character development.

1923 would have been even better than 1883 if not for the gratuitous snuff porn. I'm not talking about the usual sexual violence women face from day to day, as reasonably portrayed in this series, but about Whitman's appetites specifically.

We already know Whitman is a sociopath without any boundaries or redeeming features. Negatives about any character are easy to portray offscreen (assuming they are even necessary). Filming the snuff-porn and giving viewers no option to view a less offensive version does absolutely nothing to advance the plot, or improve the Sheridan brand.

I could stop by just putting this title, needless to say that this series had everything to be excellent just as 1883 BUT the appeal to sex and violence scenes in this movie is just unbearable.

I finished watching this series with a sense of frustration and disappointment.

Having loved 1883 I looked forward to 1923 being another great series.

1883 was superb, with great scripts, great plots and great production.

Apart from a promising cast, 1923 has non of these., 1923 does not fit in with 1883 and makes no sense.

It's really really bad, so fragmented. I mean really poor, so poor that it could be just cancelled to give space to a better job.

1923 is the next prequel to Yellowstone after 1883 and like those two shows this is just as incredible! As a huge fan of those two shows I was really looking forward to this and it did not disappoint! It continues to follow the Dutton family and show how they created the Yellowstone ranch. This obviously takes place in 1923 during prohibition and the Great Depression. It's another gritty western from Taylor Sheridan. Sheridan is one of the best things going on television right now, everything he touches turns to gold. Just look at his resume (Yellowstone, 1883, Mayor of Kingstown, Tulsa King, Sicario, Hell or High Water, etc.). Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren lead an amazing cast who are all at their best here. I can't wait until Season 2 comes out and I'd be shocked if this show doesn't end up winning numerous awards.

Dame Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford. Sounds like a winning recipe. And it is. The Duttons are once again struggeling to keep their way of farmlife in Montana. The patriarch, (Harrison Ford) Jacob Dutton, is fighting pretty much the same battles as John Dutton (Costner) did in Yellowstone. Very entertaining.

There are two other very interesting archs to the story. One is Spencer Dutton. A disillusioned WW1 veteran. Now a hunter in Africa. Spencer meets an english girl whom he liked. Suddenly those two learned that they had to travel from Mogadishu in Somalia to Montana. Should be easy...

The second arch is told from a school where native American girls are abused by catholic priests and nuns. That part was highly unpleasant to watch. There was a bit of revenge going on there that made it somewhat watchable...

I normally rate TV shows after 1 season. Not this time. I did not like the last episode. Explaining why would meen spoiling. But I'm going to watch season two. I have to...
