I didn’t think it was shit, I enjoyed it. Haven’t watched Yellowstone yet so not sure if it helps to have done so but wouldn’t have thought so with it being a prequel.I've not seen it yet but it's written by Taylor Sheridan, who wrote Sicario, Wind River and Hell or High Water which were all IMO very good and critically acclaimed, so it'd be a shame and a bit of a surprise if 1883 is shit.
Long stopped telling people what they should or shouldn’t like anymore when it comes to entertainment as it’s personal choice, though I tend to go the opposite of whatever @Bill Walker thinks is great… :-)
