Walt, Vic, and Ferg set out to search for Branch, after finding a disturbing typewritten note on his home computer. But I would record the Jon Tenney spinoff and still watch Longmire. They also are weak in their other programming and it seems generally incompatible with the Longmire viewer type so they are unlikely to stumble upon it. Ill take it one step further. Getting sick of their lack of information and promotion for Longmire. This show always surprises me so I am certain that a Season 4 would continue that trend. Later he made a video to announce and show his suicide, but afterwards he made a reappearance in the life of Deputy Branch Connally, who was after him for hurting Cady. The owl seemed to guide Walt to a cabin and that was essential to him surviving and going on. [38] By June, the interior scenes had been filmed at Garson Studios; location photography was underway in various New Mexico locations including Santa Fe, Las Vegas, Valles Caldera, Pecos, and other sites in the northern part of the state. . Longmires now officially on Netflix, and its begun filming Season 4. I think Henry took the jar with requests for Hectors services because he is going to take over the role of providing justice to the Cheyenne when they cant get it anyplace else. Another indication of people not liking storyline or direction ( not necessarily regarding Walt/Vic) is the decline in viewership. The scene of Vic, Ruby, and Ferg staring out the window at displaced, disturbed Deputy Branch is one of my all time favorite images for this show. Couldn't catch him in the act though. David Midthunder as David Ridges a Cheyenne man who shoots Branch and becomes a fugitive (seasons 2-3). Walt and Donna continue their relationship. And thank you. [50] A 21-disc Blu-ray set titled Longmire: The Complete Series will release on February 14, 2023 from Warner Bros.[51], Longmire debuted as A&E's number-one original-series premiere with 4.1 million total viewers. The Prescott Fire Department's Granite Mountain Hotshots assisted in preventing the destruction of the area around where Walt's house is filmed. Its the embodiment of Martha, the symbolism for her. That was written when seven episodes of season 1 had been filmed. I think TNT should pick it up, put it on Monday at 10pm eastern after Major Crimes and match the number of episodes with Major Crimes. But that is about to change, and change drastically. Walt ends his relationship with Donna. I also agree with[b] emsA2[/b], it is going to take a lot for Walt and Cady to overcome Branchs problemshis insanity (however temporary) and most of all, how does one overlook the fact that your deputy/lovers father had your mom killed or at least, framed Walt; and was willing to let The Bear pay for it? [15][16] Another "Hector" appears, running Jacob and Henry off the road. Sheriff Longmire's longtime friend Henry Standing Bear (Lou Diamond Phillips), a Cheyenne, provides insight to and sometimes aids in dealing with tribal police. Then in the Red Pony Henry says to Vic I think you are spending too much time with Walt you are picking up his speech patterns. I kept watching the clock as the minutes were dwindling down, wondering what surprises were left in store. "[63] At the same point in the series, Mike Hale of The New York Times also filed a favorable review, with particular praise for actor Robert Taylor, described as a "modern-day Gary Cooper or Joel McCrea". Katee SackhoffVic cant help lovin that man WaltKatee amazingly portrays Vics tough-tender personavivid and vulnerable, Ruby and Fergthe icing on the cakecant have this cake without the icing, Peter Weller and Gerald McRaneyI am longtime fans of both actors, and they are terrific counterpoints to Robert Taylor, Robert Taylor has such a wonderfully, subtly expressive face and eyes that say so muchyet he is physically imposingthat man can really clear a tablealso a deskand that voiceyessireevote for Longmire, A year is an awful long time to wait for Season 4I vote for Season 3.5. In the opening scene, Longmire hunts down Branch Connally (Bailey Chase) in the woods. I do. Vic encounters Ed Gorski (Lee Tergesen), a retired cop from Philadelphia. If either he or Walt had killed Beck, the body would never have been found. Those story arcs were part of the cause for so many Vic haters and strong feelings Walt and Vic should not get together. I really want to see Walt, Vic, Lucien and Henry work a case with banter between all 4 of them. We just let them rant. Very good points, [b]Penny[/b]. The director was T.J. Scott and the producers included Hunt Baldwin, John Coveny, Greer Shephard, and Michael M. The character, described as a "rock steady agent of change," was a retired lawman and Cheyenne elder who helped Vic find her sense of self when she moved to Absaroka County. Archie (The Ferg) begins a relationship with a local nurse. Walt Longmire (Robert Taylor) is the sheriff of fictional Absaroka County. First, Id like to raise. The Closer and Major Crimes yes. But, sure, its a possibility. document.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value", ( new Date() ).getTime() ); Thanks so much for joining us! I dont think Branch was killed. [26] The network renewed it for a third season on November 25, 2013. It seemed to have old And I appreciate everyone that joined in the conversation over the past ten weeks. See the complete profile on LinkedIn and discover David's . But then it can be fun to think it about it anyway. I just dont see Branch getting into big business, he seems to really love law enforcement and digging into the truth of crimes, even if that truth exposed his father. Walt finds him dead in a river from what appears to be a self-inflicted shotgun wound. Another interesting storyline would be if Branch did go back to the sheriffs dept and his sibling assuming he has one taking up the reins and being just as devious and evil as Barlow. Great story, even with all the holes, but we thoroughly enjoyed the best of the Longmire storyline. In contrast to AETV, AMC has been running Hell on Wheels episodes from ALL the previous seasons continously prior to the new season starting. Its too darn good and too popular. They dont need these over the top long drawn out story arcs now that we got Walts wifes murder mostly tied up. If the show gets another season and the writers are going to put them together, they need to ease them into a relationship without any more over the top obstacles. Cant imagine any Deputy questioning a boss like she does. lou diamond is a good actor. It hums, each episode these three [sic] feeling more well-paced than the one before. Henry confesses to Walt that he hired Hector to kill Miller Beck, the murderer of Walt's wife, but Hector explains that he did not kill the murderer, but only beat him and took his teeth as trophies. I did like how it ended for Henry. PBS is doing the same thing with the final three episodes of Poirot. Hope we are all in place again next summer! Walt Longmire (Robert Taylor) finds Branch Connally (Bailey Chase) walking down the road, shotgun in hand. The season finale was a great episode with my favorite line of the series: Walt punched me. Despite his alcoholism frequently landing him in questionable situations, Bob is generally shown to have a good heart and occasionally helps Walt and the department with investigations. It is this unpredictability that contributes to the success of Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead. And how do Baldwin/Coveney, the producers, fit into the picture in terms of ownership and clout? David later assaults and shoots Branch Connally, after the deputy tries to investigate the faking of Ridges' death on sacred land, dressed as a Dog Soldier. Excellent comments ! I hope that next year will continue the humor in the interactions with the main characters. Malachi needs to go down for his corruption and treatment of Henry if nothing else. Longmire is an American modern Western crime drama television series that premiered on June 3, 2012 on the A&E network, developed by John Coveny and Hunt Baldwin. Snowdogmom, we have had discussions in other forums and I have always found your opinions insightful. Unless he felt it was so urgent he wouldnt get there fast enough or he was driving somewhere else but needed to tell Walt why? I read that Longmire DVDs and Blu-Ray sell well on Amazon and elsewhere but then do those buyers find it on TV? So heres something totally out of left fieldmaybe Ridges recently found out that he was Barlows bastard son/his mother had been abused and abandoned by Barlow and his hatred of Barlow and Branch led him to want them to suffer. I think Walt looked at that owl at the end of Ashes to Ashes with surprise and wondered why are you here when I just laid you to rest? Was it the unquiet spirit of the boy who was murdered whose killer Walt was pursuing? ! moments (insert voice of Annie Savoy, Susan Sarandans character in Bull Durham, responding to Crash Davis little speech about what he believes in in matters of the heart) Ive ever seen on TV. Crossfire is a series about three families who are staying in a holiday resort on a Spanish island when gunmen come into the premises and begin to shoot. When Walt sees an owl he is definitely seeing a real live bird. I think the whole Martha being killed story arc wasnt needed. Rather than try to hit all the plot points, here are some of the highlights I enjoyed, and I hope you will add your favorite moments in the comments. In case you dont know already the people behind The Closer are the mostly the same people behind Longmire. Longmire received a pilot order on December 14, 2010. It is unfortunate that the writers are unlikely to consider having Branch kicked off completely. They would watch for a while and become disinterested their reason -they had no clue what was going on with half the storylines. Ridges also then killed Beck for the same ass-covering reasons. Heres hoping for season 4 !! Very moody and evocative musical selections on this program. Im a latecomer to posting comments but Ive enjoyed reading the recaps and viewers comments. [b]Mates[/b], One of the best moments in television in a long time. It packed a wallop of an emotional punch for Longmire viewers from Henry being freed to Walts farewell to Martha to the Connally father and son confrontation. See also. We welcome analyzing in-depth. I loved that so many characters had to down a shot of whiskey in this episode because I needed one when it was over too. The season ends with the sound of a gunshot. [b]samanthajane[/b], That was a nice touch with Vic taking care of Walts ear in the bar. (The Indian reservation has its own police force, which has authority within the reservation boundaries, except for capital crimes.) That seems to be who the character is to me and I feel like he is lost without it. In the back of the sheriff's vehicle, David Ridges (David Midthunder) lies dead. Walt retires after convincing Cady to run for the job of Sheriff. If the arc is well done, like Ridges, I dont mind. As to Branch and his dad. I hate these reality shows . Of course, I was left asking: who set the wheels in motion for Miller Beck to kill Martha Longmire? Initially cancelled by A&E after its third season, the series was rescued by Netflix for a fourth season. However, the writers make some odd choices so I would not be surprised if suddenly they try to write them as some great romance, but I hope that Cady gets a new love interest. [67] Also in 2013, the series won the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum's Bronze Wrangler for Fictional Television Drama. I liked that Branch has discovered his father hired out the murder of Walts wife before Walt learned it. Walt and Branch are good while Beck and Barlow are bad, making race irrelevant. I think the jar of notes were NEW requests since Hector passed. They have such great chemistry! Was it concrete or cement rather than paint? [14] Based on the use of Jacob Nighthorse's wooden stakes in the Henry kidnapping, Walt still suspects Jacob of being behind Malachi but due to Jacob's fear of Malachi, Henry arranges a reconciliation with Walt. One of their guys skipped parole. But I wasn't disappointed with this I am going to catch up on the books before a new season begins (if it does, fingers crossed) and will try to review the first two tv seasons with the comments of all in mind. In a rather tepid action scene, Longmire rappels down the rocky cliff using rope and handcuffs, sees she's alive, and so, he pulls her up onto his back, wraps her arms around his neck, cuffing her wrists together. I imagine her as a very smart and independent woman who called Walt on his sh$t (maybe even used a curse word sometimes, not as much as Vic of course), kept him in line when he needed it, loved and supported him yes but also fought against the casino even when it might have made his job difficult. Unless they did pitch to TNT and were rejected. Besides, I would not want to give up that amazing scene in The Election where he just says what the hell, goes back in, throws off the hat and jacket, sweeps the table clear and proceeds to ravish Lizzie right there on it. Whether the producers/actors will let us know or not, who knows. [b]01whitty[/b], Im sure that was what Barlow was counting on but he was also taking a very big risk that Walt doesnt throw himself into his work to overcome his loss and work through the pain. Im going to go out on a shaky limb and say that there is the possibility Branch and Barlow did not shoot at one another. Maybe a little to soap-operish?!! I think Warner Horizon produces Dallas and Rizzoli and Isles but dont think Shepard/Robin/Baldwin/Coveny are invovled. Ive had the same problem with getting new people to get interested in Longmire, though, that [b]Dog[/b] expressed. Are there trolls that exist online? Longmire is an American modern Western crime drama television series that premiered on June 3, 2012 on the A&E network, developed by John Coveny and Hunt Baldwin. One of the reasons characters question the Longmore character is so the audience will have an idea of what is going on, given that Longmire is supposed to be so un-communicative. Too many tv shows are lazy and predictable keeping on main characters that should be gone to shake up the show. Not too many folks are that willing to catch up with a new show. That is what drew me to the series: incredible writing and beautifully crafted, works-of-art level episodes that still haunt me like Dog Soldier. why f with a good show. Zahn McClarnon does a very good job with that character. Meanwhile, Branch is curious about a possible relationship between his father an After killing David Ridges, sheriff Longmire uncovers a clue that could prove that Ridges killed Miller Beck. All the tributes proved just how many people Hector had helped and how much he was missed. I caught up some via On Demand and this years AE pre-season but not until I bought Season 1/2 and binge watched it (highly recommended) did I get to see ALL of the previous episodes. Henry, meanwhile, takes up Hector's role as avenger. Walt saying goodbye to his wife was an unforgettable moment. Later, when Longmire and Henry lug Miller Becks coffin back to where David Ridgess body is being kept, they find out from Ferg that someone picked the lock and made off with Ridges. The exchange between Longmire and Henry as they navigate the cops into helping them out is a comical routine, Henry playing a grave robberwith two shovelswith lawman Longmire hot on his heels. Sorry, this is terribly long but like everybody else Ashes to Ashes left me with so many thoughts and questions. Any TV business experts around? To all Im really enjoying all your thoughts. Under the pen name of Edward A. Grainger, David Cranmer writes the continuing adventures of Cash Laramie and Gideon Miles. S3 was too much serial story. Not a dry eye in the house! How did David ridges die? Anyone else, would have been perfect. 10 episodes is pretty good for a season. Yes, fingers crossed for a season 4. [url=http://deadline.com/2014/08/longmire-cancelled-by-ae-will-be-shopped-elsewhere-826379/]http://deadline.com/2014/08/longmire-cancelled-by-ae-will-be-shopped-elsewhere-826379/[/url]. Working for Jacob Nighthorse he caused the flat tire that led Cady Longmire to be in an accident during the Sheriff Election. Your email address will not be published. Seasons 4-6 were picked up by Netflix. What I didnt see coming was Branchs father Barlow (Gerald McRaney) being the responsible party. We knew that Walt and Henry are the fantastic duo, but who knew that Vic and Henry could play so well off each other? Has the owl brought a message of peace for Walt from Marthaor has someone died? Its a writing tactic that allows the audience understanding of the plot point. I loved the humor. The cliffhanger left millions of fans breathless, and is one reason fans rallied with the Longmire Posse to help find the show a new home after the former network abruptly canceled it. He feels responsible for Hectors death, prelude to Henry storyline for season 4. emsA2 I wanted a like button fro your comments. It has been reported that A&E is contracturally obligated to make a renewal decision by August 31st. He had no idea about Barlow being involved. I just think the writers wont get it right and ruin the whole. Aha! Longmire became the "highest-rated original drama series" on A&E;[3] however, the network announced in August 2014 that it would not renew the series after the third season. Absarokapedia Wikia is a FANDOM TV Community. [b]Penny[/b], I also dont see Cady backtracking with Branch. [65], In 2013, the pilot episode of Longmire, whose teleplay was written by Hunt Baldwin and John Coveny, was nominated for an Edgar Award by the Mystery Writers of America. They only have three shows drawing any sizeable audience Longmire, Bates Hotel and DD (I have never watched either of the last two). I hope they do surprise me! She was never that into him in the first place. Free through late August. Barlow had a shotgun and to use this to shoot Branch he would have to standup and turn around. Lots more too about the Longmire books and TV show, glad I found it. David Ridges is a resident of the Cheyenne Reservation. Why did Ridges go after Branch? There's promise here.
