I've seen Lonesome Dove at least 10 times in my life. It's 6 hours long, 6 times 10 is 60. I've watched Lonesome Dove for at least 60 hours. I've also read the book twice. I'm 27 years old and have a lot of Lonesome Dove left in me. I'm looking forward to growing old and watching Lonesome Dove over and over until I eclipse the magic 200 hour mark and then I can finally get the t-shirt. The 200 Hour Lonesome Dove t-shirt.Watch this movie or read this book. Or do both at the same time and really dive in. I dove in so far, I got a job next spring herding cattle from Lonesome Dove, Texas to Montana.

The acting is superb, the story is a great one, and the cast is phenomenal. This is on my short list of a dozen or so things I watch once a year. The greatest. I am adding to this now because they require ten lines of text, so this is all addendum, but the list of outstanding character actors in this miniseries superb. Angelica Huston is great in the role of Gus' ex love, a warm and giving human being with some fire in her heart and tongue. Chris Cooper, is always outstanding in any role. Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duval are perfect.

... View MoreEveryone who has anything to do with current TV should watch this mini-series to see what is possible, to understand that not only does TV not need to be crap, but can be truly great. Epic, sweeping, tear-jerking, gritty and just utterly fantastic in every way. The writing is superb, the acting Oscar quality, the cinematography and locations are tremendous. The chemistry between the characters, especially between Tommy Lee Jones' Woodrow Call and Robert Duvall's Augustus McCrea is remarkable. It's one of those movies that you never really want to end. And when it does, it's as if your friends have moved away - You miss them. I set aside 6 hours at least once a year to watch this movie - and never ever get tired of it. I laugh in all the same places, and cry in all the same places. Call and Gus, Deets, Pea Eye, Newt and Lori, and all the Hat Creek gang are some of the best characters to ever, ever be seen on TV. LOVE it. Read the book too, it's just as great.
