This series is the beginning of the Yellowstone saga which follows the Dutton family into the Northwest. It is followed by 1923, and Yellowstone. It has a good script and is well done. Sam Elliott and Tim McGraw are outstanding. If you can stand the violence and a of bit of deviation from reality then you may find this entertaining. 24 wagons start the trip and they are down 4 when they reach Montana. 18 year old attractive girls did not ride around the prairie hearding cattle in the middle summer in sleeveless blouses and dresses flirting with every cowboy and Indian to come along. And the likelihood of two adults and a teenage girl on foot taking down 12 armed bandits on horseback is a real stretch of the imagination. However, even with it's flaws, I found the series worth watching, particularly if you plan to continue the saga.
