I look forward to seeing this. Western is a huge love of mine. Some of the concept behind this one made me stall a bit though.

It's about a community populated almost entirely by women.

I was aware my comment could be interpreted that way, but I didn't mean it in an anti-feminine way or whatever. I love women.

Actually the series is now getting criticism from feminists, because the male characters are more fleshed out than the women. It's in the link I posted.

It's great.

Michelle Dockery is shockingly good. I didn't think she'd be able to pull off a frontier woman after seeing her in Downton Abbey, but she's great.

They try to mix racism and feminism into standard Western tropes and I think it works pretty well. Some people will probably find it a bit slow.
