Costner was also in a show on, I think, the Paramount network. It was only last year, but I’ve already forgotten the name of it. It was a modern day western in which he played the patriarch cowboy of a very large ranch somewhere out thar.

I watched several episodes. I didn’t think it was very good.

I’ve long thought he was an overrated actor. He had two really good vehicles with Dances with Wolves and Field of Dreams, but pretty boring and one-note as an actor.

He wasn’t too bad in Silverado, but that was more of an ensemble cast.

The show is Yellowstone. The missus and I enjoyed it quite a bit.

If you like modern western style shows, I recommend Longmire.

I agree with you. I think he directed or produced some of his better movies. Makes you wonder what happened to the guy.

I saw another B movie where he’s a Track Coach for some Latino HS in California, that I think is based on a true story.

It started out great, and I was getting into it, then it got so stereotypical and phony I turned it off.
