 | | As the season wears on, especially after the departure of a major character, the show suffers from some of the same problems as "The Sopranos," in that the ongoing, by this point soap-opery conflicts have simmered too long without meaningful resolution. |
 | | The cast, including Keith Carradine, Tim Olymphant, Robin Weigert, William Sanderson, and Brad Dourif, is excellent, providing colorful characterizations without going over-the-top. |
 | | These are not morality tales, however, but ones about power, certainly an element of Old West mythology that generally goes overlooked. |
