Normally we have to wait for weddings for this type of, Remember last week when I praised House of the Dragon for not holding our hands while it zoomed through the story? In a heartfelt, moving scene, they move Hector . The season finale was funny, exciting, and heartbreaking. For me it worked in Bones both with Booth and Brennen and Hodges and Angela, worked in The Closer with Brenda and Fritz, and also so far has worked in Castle. [b]Edward[/b], I meant Branch no longer in the Sheriffs office, but remaining on the show as Walts nemesis as mayor or running his fathers company. Longmire received a pilot order on December 14, 2010. [29] The second season's finale honored them in the closing credits. Monaghan and Walt are attacked in his home, Walt is injured and she is kidnapped, Walt conducts an intense search for the person who kidnapped Donna after the home invasion and seriously wounded him. On tonight's episode called "Wanted Man," Walt attempts to narrow the field of suspects in his wife's murder. Quailty program has become an endangered species. Pretty sick, right? What a hoot (owl pun intended). this show has been great and has kept you interested with each show. If you tried to ask about the season 1 DVD or when it would show up on Netflix you got no answers and Netflix hadnt even heard about it. [50] The Blu-ray releases of the series were handled by the Warner Archive Collection. To characterize some viewers as haters or trolls because they have different view about characters or storylines is a bit harsh and unfair. After last week's outstanding episode, "Wanted Man" where Walt, Branch, and Vic finally located Hector, then the dying man identified a photo of extremist David Ridges as his attackerI expected to see Ridges back from the dead (especially with an episode titled "Reports of My Death"), and it didn't happen! I have no problem with that and felt Sean should have been (as in the books) gotten rid of in season one and the entire Gorski plodding plot was unnecessary and/or WAY too long. Branch investigates, leading to a confrontation with members of the local Cheyenne reservation, in which Branch is severely injured and calls Walt for help. Plus TNT would actually promote Longmire. Sorry for the length. Seasons 4-6 were picked up by Netflix. Lou Diamond Phillips is the epitome of elegance and eloquence. David Midthunder David Ridges is a resident of the Cheyenne Reservation.

[12] Chance (Peter Stormare) tells Vic where to find a murder weapon so that he can get the death sentence, but Vic gets assaulted recovering it. A red herring so to speak. The department investigates the rape of a Cheyenne girl named Gabriella (Julia Jones) by a group of oil rig workers, but is unable to do anything. He taught adult religion and Know Your Religion classes for BYU Continuing Education and spoke at BYU Campus Education Week for many years. There's a recorded conversation between himself and David Ridges that clears him of violating their agreement and of setting up Longmire for an ambush. [49] The first three seasons were added to Netflix in the United States in June 2015. I had suspected Malachi (Graham Greene), and to a lesser degree Jacob Nighthorse, just as Longmire seemed to believe at the end of this episode. Henry tells Walt that he killed the murderer because Walt was unable to do so. Jacob testifies to the collusion between Tucker Baggett and Barlow so that Walt's land can be taken and used for a golf course, revealing that despite their differences, he has a great deal of respect for Walt. Although there was not any close interaction between Vic and Walt appropriately so it was really sweet to see Vic take care of Walts bloody ear in the bar What a total dirtbag Barlow turned out to be, not that we didnt think he was pretty slimy, but to turn against Branch like that pretty powerful! David Midthunder as David Ridges a Cheyenne man who shoots Branch and becomes a fugitive (seasons 2-3). Quality programming takes yet another hit in favor of more trash TV. Shortly after, I laughed out loud when Vic and Longmire walk into the Red Pony and Henry (Lou Diamond Phillips) asks what happened. The season ends with the sound of a gunshot. Gorski blames Vic for his partner's death and begins to stalk her. I tought The Red Pony was sburned down in s3.09?

[24], On August 26, 2011, A&E picked up the series for a 10-episode first season. As a result of emails that Jacob makes available, all charges in the civil suit are dropped. PBS is doing the same thing with the final three episodes of Poirot. When Barlow was talking about how the Connallys settled Absaroka County I wondered how nuts Branchs grandfather/great-grandfather might have been. I am sure that Branch shot his father because this is not the kind of show where the main characters die so I dont find the ending suspenseful. And why was Ridges going after Branch so adamantly? Sam Poteet and a group of Cheyenne folks dressed as white warriors take Ridge's corpse to perform a burial but are stopped by Walt. Of course he has some serious apologizing to Vic. Its been a lot of fun reviewing the show each week and meeting so many other fans of the show. I just love this series. [citation needed], On October 30, 2015, Netflix announced that Longmire would return for a fifth season. Branch could have given a warning shot to tell Barlow to stay put. It is unfortunate that the writers are unlikely to consider having Branch kicked off completely. I was stunned by the anti-Vic wing. Not a dry eye in the house! Walt asks him why he was protecting David and lying about his death. [22], Casting announcements began in February 2011, with Robert Taylor cast first in the lead role of Sheriff Walt Longmire. A future possibility of a relationship with Vic is suggested as they acknowledge their feelings toward each other. I read that Longmire DVDs and Blu-Ray sell well on Amazon and elsewhere but then do those buyers find it on TV? Walt, Vic, and Ferg set out to search for Branch, after finding a disturbing typewritten note on his home computer. The part when Walt was spreading his wifes ashes was so sad. Henry gets released on bail and sets out to prove his innocence. [1] The series is based on the Walt Longmire Mysteries series of novels by Craig Johnson. With David Ridges dead, his white warrior ash still smudged on Walt's clothes, Walt goes about keeping Branch out of the office and for good measure puts in motion the paperwork for his suspension. Isnt that what Netflix, etc. Walt wins the election. [4] Warner Horizon Television offered it to other networks[5] and Netflix picked it up, starting with season four. [23] Katee Sackhoff, Bailey Chase, Cassidy Freeman, and Lou Diamond Phillips followed, with Sackhoff cast in the role of Victoria "Vic" Moretti, Chase cast as Branch Connally, Freeman cast as Cady Longmire, and Phillips cast as Henry Standing Bear. Longmire, Vic (Katee Sackhoff), and Ferg (Adam Bartley) search for Branch and eventually find his body in a river, an apparent suicide, based on the angle of the shotgun. Everyone is entitled to an opinion. I think the jar of notes were NEW requests since Hector passed. He really has the upper edge even though he was distracted. I dont think Jacob is squeaky clean either. David Ridges is a Longmire character, played by David Midthunder. It was a right between the eyes message to the viewers: look at this, if you didnt get it before this is a man of huge passions who keeps them tightly reigned. Longmires been sheriff a long time, must have gotten in Barlow Connallys way many times over the years. There's promise here.

When Branch asks what he has to do to earn his way back in, Longmire replies he doesnt know. Which happens frequently in the real world. We hear the shotgun blast as we see Longmire looking concerned while scanning the landscape, as if he heard it, too. By the way, the horned owl(s) they have used are really beautiful birds, dont look onimous to me and I have always been struck by how soulful the eyes are and how they look as if they are personally connecting to Walt. DrewOFB, A very quick check says the song was Lawdy by The Vespers. As Henry gives a ride home to a presumably drunk woman, Malachi and his men kidnap him. Now, how long do we have to wait for season 4? . [b]emsA2[/b], incessant wind of the high plains and the loneliness. Thats a thought-provoking tidbit that Ive never heard.
