Hell on Wheels Review

[@steakslapn9724]

Thor Gunderson was such a great villain. Well written and well acted.

He was.

Christopher Heyerdahl, is a phenomenal actor! I agree, he was a great character to have in the story.😉👍

I worked on this show as an assistant to Jim, the head wrangler. The horses got more breaks than the people. Anson Mount rode my personal horse for a shot (but when it switched to another camera he was riding another one. I honestly catch continuity errors all the time/should work on that aspect). Used Hazel in a couple of BG scenes too......

Good news is, there are other places to watch it. Most of them streaming services, though. You get enough of them and they are like having a cable bill!

[@ryanmedina5090]

It's not Netflix that is the problem its who owns the distribution rights. Each network has their own streaming service and they are pulling back all their popular shows to make them exclusive to their platform. Streaming has not turned into cable. You need 10 streaming services to see the shows you wanna watch and pay for a bunch you don't.

Hey Santee, I watched a behind the scenes video some time back, with Anson and the armorer for the show. They talked about & showed the Griz as well as the Remington. Anson said he preferred the Remington because of the balance and fit his hand better. I remember catching that scene you showed, using the '60 Army. Maybe the "extras" were playing with the Griswold out behind the set somewhere & they had to substitute :))

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

I heard they couldn't find one and didn't bother to change the script.

I myself enjoyed and looked forward to each episode of Hell On Wheels, especially since it contained all the essential western elements that combined with the known factual historical events of the time blended into a unique story line that will never be forgotten. Great job Santee 👏👏👏👏👏👏🐎🐎🐎🐎

Hey Santee! thanks for the review of this awesome series, i feel the need to point all though the fellar in the snap button vest looks like he walked off the set of 70s biker b movie the stitching pattern on the back of Cullen's is pretty similar to the stitching pattern on the back of a Confederate army issue Richmond Depot jacket, lore wise it's not wholly unfeasible he didn't goto a leather worker and say something akin to "hey heres my old old wornout uniform jacket, can you make me a vest patterned on the lines of this?"

And Samuel Colt made them equal" Having said that, all the best in the New Year to you all and your loved ones.

After completing a few contracts we ran out of jobs , so my employment lasted about seven months . We didn't refurb any steam locomotives , unfortunately. But we did rebuild an old diesel - electric into a replica of an Atchison , Topeka , and Santa Fe Super Chief . That is a nifty looking piece of rolling stock . I think there is still some pbotos of the rebuild on the website ' Motive Power and Equipment Solutions ' . Welp , see y'all down the trail .

I was not expecting this. Nice work. One little discrepancy regarding the other Railroad company. During the building of the Transcontinental Railroad the railroad building from west to east was known as the Central Pacific. It wasn't until 1885 that the Southern Pacific which had been formed in 1865 leased the Central Pacific. This lease lasted until 1959 when the two companies were finally merged however by that point most of the rolling stock and locomotives were labeled for the Southern Pacific. Also in the first episode as far as I know Anson does wield a Griswold and Gunnison replica. The discrepancy doesn't happen until episodes 2 and 3. Either way great review. You summed up this series quite nicely.

They interviewed a woman who worked at a theatre and she had to make an authentic Elizabethan leather jacket. She spent some time researching Elizabethan jackets and finally made one which looked fantastic. But she had to make it look more lived in so amongst other things she dragged it around a graveled car park. Once it was cleaned up, it would have looked right covered in gravel, it had the authenticity she wanted.

Very awesomely awesome cool video and review, I haven’t seen hell on wheels, but after I watched your review on it, I definitely want to watch it and get a lot of cool story ideas for my old West book. That actually closely ties in with another book I’m writing called the great battle for amarykhanta. That is a alternative history story of the American civil war . My main characters in that book, Arnamoun Sala-Al-Din who is a confederate soldier who lives in South Carolina with his wife Anamaria jordao And nine children on a plantation homestead

Cool! Keep writing.

@@ArizonaGhostriders thanks, I’m actually working on doing final editing and publishing my two books on Wattpad, web novel, inkitt and Commaful . Then one day I hope my two books would be made into either a short film or tv series some day. The idea for the old West book came to me in a dream and I decided to write a book about . As for the civil war book, i got the idea from one of my what if questions that was what if the American civil war ended in a draw and neither side won. So I started writing a book on just that

Ok I have a question, Between this show and others. Is the term Trail Justice which I assume is vigilante justice, A common phrase used in the 19th century?

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

The Pickens Sentinal in 1876 uses the term, so it was around. You see it in print more in the 1900s. BUT, it was used then.

[@abigaildeeks8328]

@@ArizonaGhostriders Yes it was used more in dime novels than in real life....

I never knew about the Hell on Wheels Town. British Navvies (Did the railroad builders have a specific name?) had travelling camps. The ususal reaction of the Fixed population was 'Lock up your daughters and get the dogs out!' Best wishes and Happy New Year from this side of the pond.

Thank you and glad you learned a little somethin'
