I'm binge watching Longmire

[left-of-center2012]

Just started season 3.
Already know I'll miss it when I've seen the whole thing.

Any suggestions of something comparable to watch afterwards?

Thanks

1. I would be interested too ! Longmire was great

2. I should give that series another try.

I originally could not make it through the first episode. And I live in NM, where it was filmed.

In fact, during the first season I was working on the information desk at the hospital in Santa Fe when a man came in, explained he was connected to that series (I forget what he told me his job was) and was wondering if he could get a newborn blanket to use in an episode. I told him to go upstairs to our maternity ward and tell them. A bit later he came back by, all smiles, with the blanket he needed.

And even though I never got into the series, I'm inclined to think well of it.

9. I live in NM, where it was filmed.

I live in Albuquerque.

I got a good laugh from one online review that said one "plus" about the show
is the beautiful Wyoming scenery where the show is filmed.

3. The cast rocks

Katee Sackhoff, Lou Diamond Phillips, Graham Greene, Gerald McRaney and Ally Walker to name a few.

4. There must be something

I can't think of a series that has such a strong cast that you can really get to care about. And the stories, while basically just crime dramas are still intelligent and have the added interest of the culture of the area etc. Hell on Wheels, while not really comparable, was decent but a lot more violent and sometimes got kind of 'soapy'. Some good acting in it though--Christopher Heyerdahl was excellent as a creepy villian.

Can't come up with another one done in the US, but maybe there is something from Britain. The old Lovejoy series was enjoyable but mostly on the silly side--con man art dealer outwits the real baddies etc. Ian McShane was good in that one.

Keeping fingers crossed that the Longmire production company can find someone to do a couple of movies. I semi follow some of the cast members on Instagram and most of the main characters have said they would love to do more. Watching Robt Taylor and Adam Bartley (Ferg) hang out in a Mexican restaurant in LA, while trying to figure out how to do a live podcast to fans via their phones was a hoot.

7. sometimes got kind of 'soapy'

It does, and has a lot of sub-plots.

5. Did you watch Justified (with Timothy Olyphant) which ended its run a couple years ago?

that might be the closest thing I can think of.

6. "Justified"

Thanks. I'll check it out.

10. Justified

I just checked Netflix and "Justified" is only available on DVD.

I just do the streaming, as some years ago I did the DVD plan and had so many problems getting the DVDs in a timely manner
and a couple times they did not get the ones I sent back to them.

12. I'll look into it

13. I just started Longmire as my workout show.

Watched the first episode. I liked the characters. Thought the resolution came pretty quickly and easily, but it was the pilot, so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt on that one.

14. I'm planning to rewatch Longmire - so many of the threads come together at the end

That I think I will watch the last two episodes before I watch it from the beginning. It's a pretty amazing show.

15. The killing was great

Didn't want it to end...

17. Never in a million years

Did I think I would ever watch it....but The Walking Dead. I got so hooked ....whoa. Netflix has them streaming up to season 8
