Summary:
As introduced by "The Old Ranger, " the eighteen episodes within Season One present dramatic and powerful narratives based on true events. This grounded approach would set it apart from the more stylized presentations that were more common amongst the series' contemporaries. Top-notch writing, acting, and direction combine to present a vision that respects both the actual men and women who lived in and fought for the glorious Old West.
