I've been following it from the beginning. Pretty good.

I wonder when we will get to find out what happened to his wife. Looks like a shootout of some kind.

I like it too, except the episode where the deputy chick went to the strip club and stated pole dancing and stripping in her uniform to get information about the victim in that episode. Albeit an un-orthodox way of getting information, it was pretty hoaky and in the real world she would have been fired for this.

If I were the Sheriff I would be questionng the hiring of this chick (ex-philadelphia homicide detective) since before she arrived it was a quiet little county. Now they are having all these murders every week.

We like the show too. Reasonable plots for the area and good writing. The action scenes aren’t quite up to todays standards. I mean there is almost no believability in any real action. I’ll go on a bit. I know the show is not about action its about the character, the area and what goes on,,,,,,, so when an action scene comes along they kinda gloss over it to get on with the next scene.

And the wife thinks he’s kinda good looking. Oh, and he does a good job of erasing any accent.

Ive read all the Longire books and was rather leery about watching this series.
The books are great and I didn’t think the tv show could truly do them justice.
With all that said, I really do enjoy the series but about all the tv writers took from
the books are the characters and setting. I like Lou Diamond Phillips as an acter
but he doesn’t fit the book character. All the others do a
really good fit.

My wife and I also enjoy the show but what we really want to know is in which WY county is Longmire the sheriff, since we may be driving through WY later this year and want to avoid that area as much as possible. It's not just the incredibly high crime rate but it's also the nature of the crimes, especially murder.

Not to be picky, but doesn't the appellation Big Sky country apply to MT, not WY? Ok, I am being picky. Sue me.

Excellent show, and it’s already been renewed for a second season.

We like it and watch every episode but the sheriff needs to hold his head up and speak more clearly. He mumbles!

This is my new fave. I’m very impressed with this “new” Robert Taylor. I think he has captured his character not unlike Peter Falk did “Columbo.” I’ve never been one for “quirky” TV series, but this one is “quirky” without being over-the-top. As to the remarks about the girl deputy pole-dancing and the Cheyenne/Anglo strife...chill out, it’s a TV show.

I think the sheriff and I are the only two people on earth who don’t have cell phones.
