The Pinkertons

Decent plots. Characters were relatable. I could envision multiple spins for future episodes. I really hate when a show ends on a cliffhanger. That's just poor management at the network.

I really like this show, it is entertaining, feel-good, beautiful and somewhat authentic. What comes to the costumes and props, spot-on.

But this is meant to be 19th century America! It is Victorian era for *cks sake! Non-married men and women do NOT sleep in the same tent! I would have like at least the characters to discuss over this and resort to the 'bundling' codex. meaning something between them to prevent intimacy. That was a missionary's daughter even! And none of the people are prunes, even when it was common practice at that time period.

I do understand, that for the modern era viewer you must represent people of color different and with respect on television. It kinda little bothers me, that John gets so little hardship from the people, even though he seems the only black person in town. Do not understand me wrong, I do not WANT to see racism represented on television. But it just bothers me, for authenticity sake.

I would have assumed at least the three white guys he was imprisoned with would have remarked more on his race.

But I can look between my fingers for them to decide for more modern morals. I just wish the characters acted more prune XD it would have caused entertaining tension!

Edit: and then I saw the episode with the colonel, makes my point on the race moot

As many shows my wife and i find interesting enough to watch past the first fifteen minutes this one is only one season long. At least that's all we can find. We really enjoy the characters ad the settings

Although this show doesn't have a excessive violence and has an actual plot without being simple It didn't seem to get a lot of publicity. We watch it closely and have enjoyed each episode. This show was starting to flesh out it characters and story lines before halfway through the season. Unfortunately to stay on TV you need lots of blood flying, stupid people and very simple plots so it's not hard to follow. This was a refreshing break and our only wish is more seasons.

I think this was one of the best shows in years. I wish they would put it back on. I keep checking. PLEASE bring it back... I not only like westerns, I like trains, and I like old detective shows. So with the combination, I really enjoyed this show. I watched every episode that season and am really disappointed that that did not continue it. It is hard to come up with 10 lines. Just please bring it back. Most shows out there on regular TV is garbage and I see why they are bringing back some of the older shows that has morals in them and just plan life. This show was great. We need more shows like this and even more western shows and movies. Please bring it back.

My husband and I have fallen in love with this show! It just keeps getting better with the plots and especially the mystery is getting really good. With so many reality shows and cheesy sitcoms, I had forgotten how much I enjoy a good mystery. The casting is well done, and the characters are pretty well defined and the story flow on each show is like a good book. This show treats the audience with intelligence rather than cheesy one liners or moments every 5 seconds that try to pull your chain for either to laugh or think about sex. It's so insulting! Really, we all have much more substance to us than that. This show has intrigue, its engaging, with enjoyable characters and not to mention the set, the beautiful scenery is pleasant. I would only like to see here and there a little more defining of the characters that gives us a clear picture of say why they are doing what they are doing and makes them tick. But honestly if they never did do that I would still enjoy this show tremendously.
