Peacemakers

Don't know why this series was canceled as the characters are all very believable and I am extremely enjoying the show. I wasn't lucky enough to be able to get it off of HBO, but it is definitely a show I look forward to seeing each week. I hope that they will show all of its seasons. I don't know how many it had, but I guarantee you I will be watching it! The actors and actresses did a great job, and I, too, would like to thank CMT for giving us this opportunity to see such a great show. Even the outlaws are interesting. I personally think Tom Berenger, as the Marshall, is following in John Wayne's footsteps. I was a great John Wayne fan, and Berenger is the first man I have seen who makes me think of the Duke.

This is a welcome addition to Wednesday night programming, even if it is on so late that I have to record it and watch it on Thursday mornings with my coffee. A very nice way to start the day. Yes, this series is top notch in every respect. I have just finished watching the Aug. 20 episode which covered the racism and bigotry our country has shown (shows) toward the Native Americans. The evidence used to id the female corpse along with the other forensic techniques and traits of human nature show that we really haven't changed in the past 120 years, have we? My ONLY negative comment about this show is that Amy Carlson is third on the billing, following Peter DeMeara. Ms. Carlson has a much longer career and list of credits to her name than Mr. DeMeara, yet she is billed third. I hope this series is a keeper for a number of years. For those of us who grew up in the 50's and 60's, westerns are truly missed, especially quality ones.

This show is outstanding. It combines a little bit of "Law and Order", adds a dash of "CSI", and tops it all off with the flavor of "Gunsmoke." Don't let the whole western theme fool you or scare you. Whether you are a fan of westerns or not, if you like crime shows, this show is an excellent view each Wednesday.

When I was a small child it was the Age of Westerns. I remember many of the classics: Gunsmoke, Rawhide, Bonanza, Have Gun Will Travel, to name a few. In these days it is not exactly "cool" to admit you like the old shoot-em-ups, but I do.

Peacemakers satisfies that craving as well as my enjoyment of crime drama. The characters are interesting, the history is fascinating, and the atmosphere of the entire show invigorates and restores. It has been a long time since I found a series I never miss. There's been only one other in the last ten years.

The violence is not explicit (no blood packs exploding with gore everywhere), the situations realistically portrayed, the attitudes and prejudices of the times accurately shown, whether they are sympathetic to modern audiences or not. I recommend the show to everyone I know. It really is a fresh idea in a season where dullness abounds. Would I give it a ten? I wish the scale would go up to eleven!

Why is it that every time a good show comes around that it does'nt last?I was really looking forward to "Peacemakers" staying around for quite some time it has all ingredients of a good western Tom Berenger is Jared Stone and plays him to a tee Berenger really enjoys the part. The cast is good and the stories are enjoyable if not catchey as they seem to cover CSI "Western Style" I do hope its picked up for awhile as this is just good family viewing
