Considerably darker than most, nearly any, episodic Westerns you'll see. Closest comparison is Deadwood, without the Shakespearean word play, the dialog is more straightforward, as are the characters. 1883 is a great, darker and more realistic, take on a traditional Western. Tim Mcgraw and Sam Elliott are wonderful, but the standout is the radiant Isabel May. She could work on the Appalachian accent, either way, she is going to be a star.
Yellowstone was a bit too "Soapy" for me, I made it through two seasons and haven't picked it back up. 1883 ain't that, at least through the first two episodes. Looking forward to this series, off to a fantastic start.
