They were very well done. I like Jane Seymour better as Natalie than Ali McGraw and glad they made the switch.

That being said, War and Remembrance won the emmy that year for best mini-series. The emmy should have gone to Lonesome Dove.

'Lonesome Dove' was a masterpiece, much better than McMurtry's other stuff. It was glorious and sad, ribald and sombre, featuring people often ridiculous, brave, likable, and resilient at the same time, many with obvious and disappointing weaknesses. It was a magnificent display of the beauty and bitterness of life.
