hes been in numerous movies...hell on wheels is not his first acting role

i mean the show looks brutal to begin with...then theres the fact that i cant imagine a show exists that you love that i would not hate....so by this many times proven theorum i pretty much can calculate that it sucks

but hey if you enjoy it more power to you....you aint gotta get salty chief

been re-watching fringe on netflix - just started the 4th season which i didnt see originally because the series moved to friaday nights.

I thought the Wire was some of the best tv ever so your logic is a little flawed. Really though, you should give it a chance. It's not your corny John Wayne type western.

You motherfargers watch entirely too much tv, and that shtein is rotting your brains. I couldn't do that without it cutting into my 18 hours of daily youtube videos.

I'm completely indifferent to it.

I disliked it. To hell with you and your ideas, IGY!

MDS, you know more about tv and whats on than anyone here and you've never watched Hell on Wheels not even once? Why?

because it looks boring and zesty

and also i dont watch that much tv anymore. my standards are too high...i cant watch B level shows. it needs to be grade A shtein or i am OUT

I watch Hell on Wheel and I really like it...but I enjoy "modern" Westerns. Common is a terrible actor though.

shorebird · August 22, 2013, 06:59:34 AM

I don't see why people think Common isn't a good actor.

I guess you can call it a 'modern' western, I like to say that it's more authentic than anything else that's been on tv. Even the Colt that Bohannon uses is period correct.

When I'm paying for Directv, DVR, HDTV, and everything else that comes with it I'm gonna' do my best to enjoy it.

The Bridge isn't a bad show either.

ice grillin you · August 22, 2013, 07:22:02 AM

its lovely

By "modern" I really mean "any western made after like 1990" Young Guns or Tombstone, for example. John Wayne-type westerns get the gas face for not only being practically unwatchable, but for being as historically accurate as the bible.

And people think Common isn't a good actor because Common isn't a good actor. Not really much gray area with that one. Put it like this.....his role on Hell on Wheels is the best that I've seen from him and I'd say that he's still giving a below average performance. I like his character but I'm not a big fan of the way he's portraying it. He's just ok and was probably given the part because his name might help attract some younger viewers.

It helped a whole lot with Zune sales.

In random TV musings, Kevin Spacey: TV audiences 'want to binge'

Quote"Give people what they want, when they want it, in the form they want it in, at a reasonable price, and they'll more likely pay for it rather than steal it.

I kinda wish common sense didn't have to be news.
