For anybody that enjoys a western, that being my genre, ever since I was knee high to a tumbleweed, I can't recommend the HBO series Deadwood highly enough. It's pretty old now, 2006 I think, but stands up to repeat viewings.
Any suggestions?

Although not strictly a western, how about a special request just for Calum " Deliverance " :guitar:

.
Here's something below for J.D. to help ease the pain while watching, not that I suggest for one moment John ever squeals like a pig! :oops:

Have you watched the series Firefly and the follow up movie Serenity (2005) Danny. It's basically cowboys in space. Watched it a few weeks ago, good fun.

Oh aye, Geoff, I enjoyed those myself. The new Disney channel/StarWars series The Mandalorian is basically cowboys in space, too. Mixed in with a bit of Baby Cart!

Essential cowboy movie Danny - The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. Really four short stories if you’ve not seen it and very dark humour!
Cheers

Definitely, Calum, a great watch. The Coen Bros seldom put a foot wrong. 3 Billboards Outside... , O Brother Where Art Thou, Fargo all fantastic IMHO. Oops, plum forgot True Grit!

I've even re-watched Silverado, Open Range and Unforgiven. My early exposure to Davy Crockett, The Lone Ranger and Range Rider obviously conditioned me to a hankering for a life in the saddle.
