Outsiders

Seriously cannot believe this show got cancelled!!! Bad decision!!! Somebody else please pick it up! There are so many storylines and ways to take it, already has a fan following, would be an easy moneymaker!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SOMEONE PICK THIS SHOW UP!!!

I'm not sure what other reviewers are taking this show as. It's not a documentary so stop trying to wrap your head around every little detail. There are some plot holes that could be filled in but I don't think every small nuance needs to be addressed. It's a TV show. It's fictional. Every movie or film has movie mistakes, deal with it. Many of these reviewers probably live in urban or suburban areas and couldn't figure out how to get things done without their iphones and credit cards. Think about the situation and you can probably fill the holes yourself, even if you don't see it on screen. Examples below.

• Power. Generators. probably bartered or stolen. - ATVs. A welder, hand tools, and junk parts can make it work. I've seen many Frankenstein vehicles that were operational. How do you think Cuba kept cars from the 1950/1960s running so long. They probably modified junk ATVs. Speaking of welder, they must have had one to make the cage. - Tools/instruments. Stolen/bartered. - The language. Small pocket dialect. Look up PA Dutch for example. - Fuel. Moonshine is ethanol. Ethanol is moonshine. People do convert vehicles to run on alternative fuels...bio fuels, wood alcohol, etc. Not a stretch to use ethanol in this case. Or rob locals, siphon cars, etc. - Trucks. Face if folks, they're driving old beaters that aren't worth much. Probably didn't take much to acquire one.

In any case, you can fill the plot holes with your own conclusions. Think outside the box but don't think too much because you'll ruin your viewing experience.

The actors do a good job acting. The setting is believable. The lifestyle is intriguing. Power struggles are entertaining. Character development is fun.

Just sit back and enjoy the show.

I cannot believe this show is canceled. It was a great show. It has a great premise and a great cast. I was actually trying to see when season 3 was starting. I'm absolutely shocked this was canceled. I hope somebody else picks this show up. Bad move by WGN, but then again, it's WGN... LOL. Hopefully they will get rid of this new CEO asap.

I came across this show on my Hulu suggestion feed and being all of my shows are on their mid season finales I had been trolling for something interesting to watch. This show had me hooked after the first episode!! Only to find it was cancelled after two seasons! It's one thing to cancel a show, but you could've gave the loyal viewers some closure on how it was abruptly ended and have left them hanging in suspense on the outcome of the family and the mountain!! Really!!So if this review is by chance read or even glanced by a producer, network executive, or intern, please give the show a "proper" ending

Awesome Show so far !!!! Great cast, interesting story, and lots of potential for the rest of the season. I' am expecting guerrilla fighting with a modern kick and hoping the drama wont over-extend the action and suspense. It's also interesting to note the story so far is not over-extending in terms of realism, but makes it quite believable. I hope it continues this way and we get 5 seasons at least. Keep an open mind and wait for more episodes before judging to harshly. For those that didn't recognize its Opie !! Ryan Hurst will make the show !! Has elements of other shows such as Justified in terms of the realism of the town and the people. I'm waiting to see more episodes before I can really judge how accurate they represent the mountain people, because I would expect them to be more ragged, using more basic tools, and stealing or killing whatever they can find. Right now it looks more like a cult or something rather then a family or tribe living in the mountain for the last 50 years.
