"The Dream Is Not Me" was a massive step up from some of the previous episodes, but the show is still struggling mightily. There is simply not enough drama and we're not going to get anything until Jamie starts enacting a plan, a plan that we know will fail and land him in an even worse spot than he usually is in.

But some of the dialogue was fine, I'll admit to laughing at the brr/bear bit, but this season continues to be more about showcasing the setting and beautiful exterior as opposed to actually giving us compelling television.

Hoping the rest of the season improves, but this was a step up.

Cowboying and people just having a good time. Where's the drama, the twist and/or shocker. Last 3 episodes of the season seem to be dragged and were quite boring. It felt like they were trying to make the cowboy life real as possible and let the audience know what it takes to be a cowboy? I sort of get the point but felt like it was dragged which I understood at first and was hoping it was gonna build up into the last episode and thought I was in for a surprise but the end was just Jamie building up case against his dad which I was expecting. The season started off well but ended weak. I am not really excited about watching the last part of the season but I guess I have no choice since it's coming to an end. Btw Kayce Duttons role got pretty lame in this season.

This show is fast becoming a cowboy version of America's Got Talent. More excuses for live bands, last one was the branding, this one is the fair. Incredibly poor writing, just all background story telling.

I guess they are trying to get everyone emotionally involved, lots of chatter with Beth and how Rip is her perfect match. So either Rip dies or Beth dies, not that hard to figure out. Build their story just so it makes it that more dramatic once it ends.

Ugh. This is for teens. The hippie chick keeps hanging around trying to be useful. Not much else is happening. Some tribe stuff, some politics and Jamie is making plans. Skip this one.

Season 5 Episode 7

Well, we got to see how two different women support their cowboys having to move south with the herd; one supportive, one 'I'm out of here'. Going to the fair was a nice diversion but holding the hat up for the kiss was kind of disappointing seeing how John is starting to fall for Summer. It was just embarrassing watching an offlander deal with cow health. Strange that the only really strong woman is the Senator. Beth can have eye of the hurricane moments with Rip, rediscovering the beauty of the ranch, Monica is a bit less pouty, the only successful female hand is ok as long as she's not traditionally feminine, but she grows on me. The governor's aide was given a peek into her love life. And Jamie...so easily duped by a female. I agree with someone earlier; I think John and Rainwater will team up for some sort of financial thing to save them both. Has anyone noticed that Walker resembles Festus? And that was a nice send off for Buck Taylor. I cried when John comforted his wife (yes, I know, previous episode). And I'm not a fan of Jimmy, am not looking forward to his spin off. I am in agreement with Costner that this should be the last season.
