Hell on Wheels (2011–2016)
1/10
Pointless Western
28 April 2024
Colm Meaney, the guy that made any Star Trek episode deadly boring, was the main villain on this show. Same charming lack of a human personality. The only thing missing was Odo as his wife. Meaney wants to be rich working for a railroad, and he is willing to kill anyone that gets in his way.

Anson Mount, another guy lacking in any charm or personality, is the good guy. He should have been cast as Colm Meaney's brother. They are the same person, and equally boring.

Add in Common, who is the only interesting actor. He represents normal people, and make choices that are usually the most interesting ones.

Finally there is the railroad town's escort server / barmaid. She has some tattoos on her face that designate her as the town public servant. Common is in love with her.

Not much going on in this show except for mostly boring characters making predictable choices and confrontations.
