I have been watching season one on netflix. It is not nearly as good as the books, but I keep watching because I liked the books so much. The predictable plots and hammy acting are harder for my wife to tolerate because she doesn't know the books.

We love Longmire. I bet it gets picked up somewhere. It was clearly a money maker.
Me too. I watched the very first episode, and haven't gone back. I found it very shallow......
If it was a money maker it likely wouldn't have been cancelled.

Bummer! We really enjoyed it here along with one of my co-workers. It was a nice change from all the fast paced-high tech-action packed stuff normally on. We'll be hoping it shows up elsewhere.
Neither.
It seems that the show appealed to the wrong demographic. They are looking for younger viewers - you know, the ones who spend their parents money on goofy stuff? Since us "over 50's" hang onto our money, we don't pay attention to the ads that sell the goofy stuff so those folks selling goofy stuff don't take out commercials on Longmire.
Ain't no money in catering to old folks...

We don't get A&E, but just started watching season 2 on Netflicks. It's one of my favorite shows. Hope Netflicks doesn't take too long before they pick up season 3!

Which means more idiotic "reality tv"
Most likely making fun of southerners
I don't know something like "Hillbilly TrailerPark Bigfoot Hunters Gone Wild!!"
Yeah, that will do it......

Ding, Ding, Ding, we have a winner
I read another article that said that "non scripted" TV is cheap to make, and you can vomit them out (my words).
You don't need a team of writers, you don't need trained actors. People will trip over themselves to be on TV. So even if fewer people watch, the profit's higher.

My feelings exactly. Got tired of Longmire being the only person capable of solving crime.
Naked ice road storage picker survival honey sucking boo boo pawn star housewives.
I'll fall back on ' Hell on Wheels '. Interesting characters on that one.

It would have been a success if Longmire had turned into a vampire.

It had to be a money issue.
Did you notice that the producers never could find the money to buy Vic a shirt that was not too small?

Unscripted means another ''reality show''. No thanks. Not for me..

Both Longmire's lead and Glades' lead actors are Australian. Clearly, A&E doesn't like Aussies! AMC does - witness the lead in their "Walking Dead".
A&E lost me...

I watched season 1 and 2 after the recommendations here. I thought that the stories were interesting, but the firearms handling and realism was atrocious. The person who was the armorer for the show knew little about firearms.
If you want to see proper 1911 handling, watch the Jesse Stone series on Netflix.
Longmire seemed to be one of the only current shows that tried to explain Indian culture, both good and bad. I don't know when Season 3 will be on Netflix.

This sucks I was a big fan of this show. Watched all three seasons. I hope they get picked up. Maybe TNT will pick it up to go with The Last Ship and Legends.

Actually, I think it's about par. Vicky was Philly, and maintains the Glock she had. Walt's a Viet Nam vet, and seems to prefer hammer-down, which the character might be very comfortable with. The bumbling fat deputy is forever cocking his revolver (LOL, drives me nuts). The enigma for me is the rich deputy that ran against Walt. Carrying a Sigma, of all choices! I would surely put a Sig in that character's hand! Or perhaps a nickel-plated, gold-engraved Smith revolver?
I very much like those insights into native culture. I finally learned what 'counting-coups' actually means, LOL.
I've given up on Netflix, and had good luck here, where you can catch the last season in-the-can..........

Not good news! I am behind a whole season too.

To which lead are you referring? Andrew Lincoln (who plays Rick Grimes) is from England, not Australia.

I enjoyed it too.
I always wanted to wear just my uniform shirt and then jeans and boots like those folks, but of course I'm on the wrong side of the Mississippi......
