Really enjoying this show after just completing the first season the other day. I really like the cast and actually enjoy a show that isn’t so gritty and full of cussing and nudity for a change.
I watched Longmire after binging Bosch. It took a bit to get used to each episode having a resolution, after being accustomed to the season long chase of Bosch.
Yeah that’s partially why I like Longmire I think. They actually do resolve pretty much every episode with only a bit of continuing story arc (at least thus far) with what happened to his wife.
We’ve been watching it. There are things about it that make me think, “WTEF?!?” We actually quit watching for awhile, then my brother convinced us to stick with it. The story lines are generally good. Most of the characters are pretty good. Still too many “Ahh-h nah-h” things—like Longmire’s private sun dance, tied to a 4” tree, but hey...

Read a lot of the books before the TV series came out. A couple of the characters in the series were not as they were depicted in the book. Just had to get used to it. Still an enjoyable series. Glad that Netflix kept it going for awhile.
The Longmire TV series is definitely one I enjoy revisiting, though overall I prefer the “universe” of the book series. The books can be both darkly serious and laugh-out-loud funny.

I don't particularly care about gritty and cussing, but I always enjoy female nudity. What show do you think is full of nudity? I might have to watch it.
This is an excellent series. I'm happy you can watch all of them on Netflix. I'm disappointed they picked it up and ran the last two seasons and killed show.
If it was on season 9 now I think we'd still be watching.
No cheat watching!!
Enjoy!

It reminds me of Justified a bit, which is maybe why I like it some as well. It’s growing on me to see the lead actor as an older middle aged man who can still hang with the best of them. He has wisdom and thinks methodically unlike some younger more hot shot leads in other shows I’ve seen.
