This is a poor caricature of "Lonesome Dove" - and Larry McMurtry.
I love your books, with "Lonesome Dove" among the top three. I have admired the way you view yourself, through your characters, with such unflinching honesty, balanced by never taking it all too seriously. I am, therefore, spoiled.
Why have you come to this?
"Comanche Moon" is not up to your standards. I see that you are credited with the screen-writing, but this is so unlike you, I prefer to think it is written by someone else.
The dialogue makes me claustrophobic, wishing someone would break out with a naturally stated sentence. The part about 'genius' was agonizing. McCrae was unrecognizable - chiefly because of the inane words coming out of his mouth.
Well, I miss Call, too.
The most important missing factors are Gus and Call and the men they are: their matter-of-fact courage; the underlying vein comprised of ethics and honesty; their lack of self delusion. Hard men leading hard lives with a certain undeniable grace.
Some blame has to attach to the labored direction here and throughout. All of the cast needed dialect AND dialogue coaching.
While I try to imagine Robert Duvall as McCrae, speaking this same dialogue, it comes off better - but not much. It tries to sound cowboy-of-few-words shy, sly-grin witty, but doesn't half succeed...
How can it be so different from "Lonesome Dove"? Can the writer have forgotten his characters? You have fooled some of the people, Mr. McMurtry - but not this one.

My husband and I sometimes play the wish list game of "the (many) TV series
that got canceled - and should not have been."
This was one of them. It was engaging, suspenseful.
One learned early on to care about the characters: Stephen Nichols' leather- jacketed character's mysterious return to town as the 'bad boy' looking for a "second chance" and Connie Sellecca's role as the now married "good girl"
drawn back to him; the pink Cadillac with the "2ND CHANCES" license plate. Yum.
We have since wondered who the actress was who played the delightful Latina
teenager, a young lady so beautiful, humorous and warm whose character was
reined in by her super protective father (played wonderfully by Pepe Serna).
We wondered why we had never seen her in anything since.
Today (Thanksgiving 2004) on an impulse, I looked up the series on IMDb. It
appears that the actress' name is JENNIFER LOPEZ.
Need I say much more about our embarrassed astonishment. I guess our
mystery actress has done a few things since after all...
