Lonesome Dove: The Outlaw Years

Love nearly everything about this mini-series as well as the first one. I believe, as others do, that Eric McCormack as Colonel Clay Mosby is the most interesting character in these two mini-series!

I like Scott Bairstow, but, the action scenes using a stuntman who acts like he's hiding from something are crappy. I have to deduct a couple stars for continuity/stunt quality. I'm pretty sure that these are not low budget productions so I'm just disappointed in the overall result.

this show deserved a 5 year run. It almost has a NYPD BLUE feel to it for grittiness and the way some of it is shot. A good honest feeling western, it truly picks up where the mini series left. Bairstow seems to have studied the characters from each mini series created and eloquently brought his own version to the screen. He himself is good actor if given the right role in the right show. Watching him in other shows and movies, he knows how play dark characters. If the show had progressed i think some of the episodes written later in outlaw years would have become more consistent, i think it would have also ended more coherently. Still, Any lonesome dove is worth owning

4 out 5 stars

This is one of my favorite shows. I recently started watching it on the Odyssey channel and I love it! I usually don't watch a lot of western based shows but thanks to Dr. Quinn and such, they're probably my favorite now. Eric McCormack, Paul Johansson and Paul Le Mat are my favorites on this one. They play Mosby, Austin and Josiah to perfection, esp. Eric. It's too bad it had to be cancelled after 2 seasons but I guess all good things must come to an end. Hopefully they'll start showing episodes from "Lonesome Dove: The Series" (I've only see the first 3 episodes) so I can see how the characters were before "The Outlaw Years". From what I've seen so far everyone's changed a lot so it would be very interesting.

Lonesome Dove: The Outlaw Years is the continuation of "Lonesome Dove: The Series". It is a much deeper story than it's predecessor, and is rich with character development as it follows young Newt Call. The Series is comparable to Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, while the Outlaw Years take a darker turn - one that really makes you think. Every aspect of the show is superb - so watch it already! Late nights on Odyssey Channel!

I love the show back when it was new 22 years ago./until until lately when a cable station started running re runs of the show. and it is as good the second time around My favorite actor on the show is Mosbey. I did not like the outlaw years as much as the first year but the show, ( in my opinion) was very well made. You could almost believe it was of the time I did not like the ground always being wet when you could see out side of town the land

was very dry.. I wish it had stayed on for a few more years, I really missed the show as I am sure many other have also. It also show how hard a life many single females had it in that day...The Canada movie TV production seem to do a great job in producing and filming many of these show. I just wonder is there any chance of a new Lonesome dove series in the future. I would look forward to watching such a series, as I am sure many other
