    Watched the first episode last night after the hockey game was over. As I had read the book a few years ago I was able to fill in a few details for my wife as the story progressed. Not bad so far and we'll be watching more of it to see how well it progresses.

    I had to smile when I saw the "Comanche" from "Fargo".

    Here's what I posted on my FB page on 12/28:

    I wasn't going to give the upcoming AMC show "The Son" a chance because I don't like it when Hollywood has actors butcher Southern accents instead of just hiring an actor with a real Southern accent. I really don't like it when they use imported actors to do really bad Southern accents.
    Then I saw a promo for the show and realized the prop guy knocked it over the fence with a 1907 Winchester. Well played prop guy.
    I had an ER nurse in a class. I noticed she kept taking all head shots. Her response when asked why, "'I've seen too many people who have been shot in the chest putting up a fight in the ER." Point taken.

    I started to get serious with it but not a single character hooked me the way every character in Hell on Wheels did. But I am kind of keeping up with it mostly. Not sure when the Col switched to his 1911 but it's made it into the last two episodes anyway.

    I don't think I made it past the first episode of "Hell on Wheels".

    I enjoyed the first few seasons of Hell on Wheels, but it eventually lost me.
