i dont understand why the rating is low. honestly, this was a great show and i enjoyed it a lot. everything ended satisfying, although not happy. the characters were compelling, it stayed really interesting all the way through and i really loved the realistic portray of what went down between the whites, mexicans and the comanche. a must watch!

I loved the show ,I hated "Pete" and the actor who played him.Zahn McClarnon and Sydney Lucas steal the show.I thought casting Jacob as the young Eli (Pierce Brosnan's character) was bad ,Jacob does a decent job but hes scrawny and shorter then Pierce.If you like Westerns you'll love the show.I also like that it ended and didn't drag on for 5 seasons .

The show was decent. Characters were not that good. The only relatable characters were Jeanie and Phineas. It was short and fun.

"The Son" (2017) is not created by Philippe Meyer. It was created by Philipp Meyer (no 'e' in Philipp); thus, his Trakt page and underlying sources are messed up. Philippe Meyer (with an 'e') is a German/French journalist and writer, among other things. Further confusing things, the Wikipedia page of the "creator" of "The Son" links to a completely separate Philippe Meyer (also with an 'e'), who is a Swiss former Olympic swimmer with zero film or media credits. There is a Trakt (sorta) correct page for Philipp Meyer, crediting him for authorship of the novel, "American Rust" (2021). However, the other Philippe Meyer page (with 'e') conflates all the wrong Phillippe(s).
