Beautifully shot, promising first episode
Okay first off before I say anything what's with all the politics? Seriously rating a show because it portrays Catholics spanking their children or such-and-such actor is too Republican or too Democrat?
It's sad that people can no longer enjoy a good TV show and need to voice their politics on a review thread.
With that said - the camera work on this show is just amazing. First episodes sets up potential plot points nicely, even has a few twists. Helen Mirren is a queen and it looks like she will shine in this role.
No prior knowledge of Yellowstone or 1883 is needed to enjoy the pilot, although there is a bit of an Easter egg in terms of showing what happened to Margaret Dutton from 1883.
Overall a promising first episode and I will definitely be back for the second episode. Sit back, open your mind, and enjoy a nice work of fiction and you'll be surprised how much better your evening will be.
