I have been watching previews about this show for a while now and am pretty skeptical about whether
it is going to be a winner or not. Premieres tonight so I will likely give it a chance. Here is a brief
description:

The series is set in a small town in Pennsylvania Amish country and features an enigmatic ex-con/martial arts expert posing as a murdered sheriff who imposes his own brand of justice while also cooking up plans that serve his own interests.

I have read mixed reviews on it but sounds like an awful lot of action so I am going to try it and make a decision after that. Starts at 9 CST for those interested.

Well I have to assume no one else checked this out. I thought it was alright. A lot of violence and T&A.
Acting isn't the greatest but I could see this being a pretty good show for at least a season. Special effects
aren't bad and the storyline moves right along even if it is pretty unbelievable. If you get this channel and
have an hour to kill I'd be interested to see what anyone else thinks.

DB, was that for the show or totally failed thread? ( my personal guess)

Just binge watched season 2. Pretty enjoyable show. Great t&A...note the small "t"...because they're all small and natural.

Lots of violence, great fight scenes.

The show definitely requires suspension of disbelief. I'm good with that.

I guess season 4 is the final season for the show...starts this week.
