Wow. Wow. Wow. Who knew? Certainly NOT I. The infamous gunfight at the ‘O.K. Corral’ was a mere episode in a much more complex and complicated saga — involving the aftermath of the Civil War, U.S. railroads, ‘Wells Fargo‘, U.S Presidents and U.S. politics. This was a tour de force HISTORY LESSON. Kids should be shown this in school to get them hooked on history.

I was NOT expecting what I got from this miniseries. I thought it would just be a ‘bang-bang‘ ‘you-are-dead‘ cowboy series. There was so, so much more. I learnt so much. I was riveted.

Beautifully produced. Bravo. One of THE BEST. Must watch.

Netflix is known for producing good series, & this is one of their very best. WOW. Very well produced & put together. Awesome! That good. Must watch.

Yes, obviously a very topical & timely issue too.

I have lucked out. I have never needed opioids. I am GLAD & proud to say I never did drugs. Never felt the need. That said, I, ALAS, have first hand, V. PAINFUL, ONGOING experience of PRESCRIPTION, OPIOID DRUG ADDICTION. So, this really was close to home, for I.

The story, going back to the 1980s very well told. WOW. Most of you will learn from this. The betrayal. Amazing. GREED!
