I was not expecting much from this series. I was about to read Falco's book but saw this and thought I would watch it first. I'm watching SOA at the same time BTW.
Wow this is just as good if not better. I think it beats SOA in portraying bikers gangs more realistically and less like the fantasy Robin Hood style that SOA does.
The acting is great and considering it is a Canadian production it is very slick. You really feel the danger and tension Falco was under. The bikers in this series are so close to real and often times frightening.
Although it derives its content from real events, which may have challenged its longevity due to lack of further material, a fictional continuation of the story could have worked. The acting and production was that good.
This one was a hidden gem that definitely leaves you wanting more.

I really do not know for sure why I enjoy this show but I do! I am not a Ashton Kutchner fan at all, but for some reason this show has grown on me. I do not watch many sitcoms either. I suppose it might be the setting, the show is not pretentious at all and feels very down home. Sure, it is very formula based, meaning the characters act somewhat cut outs of the typical TV sitcom, however, as the series goes on it gels together well. A lot of the humor can be crass, and being on Netlfix there is swearing. This just makes it more real feeling and less of your normal TV fare. For the most part everyone plays their part very well, but for some reason Debra Winger acts very stiff and ill fitted for the mom roll. I have not seen her in much for years, I remember her being a lot better, maybe this roll is not her. Either way I would not mind her continuing the role. It is one of those things I got used to. I finished watching the first season and I really hope they get renewed. For 10 days I got accustomed to sitting down at night and watching. I forgot how nice it was to turn your mind off and watch a half hour sitcom without stressing out about the news or some reality show drama. The Ranch can be funny and has some drama in it so it is not always light, but it has a perfect mix. It may no be the best thing to come along, but it is a welcome change from the same old TV. I am a fan of this show and hope for at least a few more seasons.
