This is a follow up video to a previous one I did featuring classic scenes from Lonesome Dove. I hope you enjoy these unforgettable scenes from the terrific western TV mini series.

Anyone that likes Westerns and have not seen Lonesome Dove have in my opinion missed the best Western ever made. The only thing I disagreed with and if I had been Gus I'd never let Clare slip from my hand nor sight. She was without a doubt the most beautiful and desirable woman I've ever seen. Neither man nor beast could have ran me from Ogallala long as she was there. By God Id marry her myself if possible. As long as Clare was there , Id go no where I swear. ❤❤

When my wife and i were dating back in the fall of 2004. We sat at her parents house and watched this one day. It was instantly my favorite of all time. Well not instantly...its a long movie. But the whole way through i was just glued to the TV. I grew up watching Westerns with my grandpa, in my early years sitting on his lap and watching them. Eastwood, and Wayne were my heros as a young boy. Lol.."biscuts and whores" as Augustus would say...good day boys and girls and thank you for what you do with these videos sir!! THANK YOU

It was just amazing how Robert Duvall brought Gus McRae to life. It made Larry McMurtry’s story so much more impactful and anchored all the other performances. Some other actors were right-on and some don’t quite hit the mark for anyone who started with the book, but, because they were playing off the perfect Gus, it was magical.

The tv series was one of the few adaptations that was worthy of the novel it was based on. The McMurtry novel was by far and away the best Western I have ever read, and I was sure the televised version wouldn't live up to it, but it did. And that because of Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duvall. They fitted their roles impossibly well, and are such great actors. What a book. What a series.

Robert Duvall is hands down an actor that brings reality to whatever movie or character he plays.I believe. He can sell me on any roll he plays. from the godfather.to the surfing officer in appoc Now.His body of work got even bigger after lonesome dove.all the westerns since. he was so freaking good in the latest movie,the judge.Robert downey jr.was also so fantastic.That was a verry well acted and complete movie. I would love to see him,and clint eastwood,live to be 110.I truly believe that this country is a better place because of them.He has a gift.He can for two hours at a time distract me. he is a true artist.

I watched the show for the first time, went thru to many boxes of tissues. Bought the CD and listen to it while traveling on long trips. I still find my self watching this show. Couldn't tell you how many times, know most of the lines. But still, THE best ever "Western". That's the way it is.

I knew that there was a movie and it had just recently come out, but I stumbled upon the book and read the book before watching the movie. It was an experience that I will remember for the rest of my life. It was the most mesmerizing experience of entertainment that I have ever had in my whole life. The book was a really good read and had all of the action, reality of the time and there was a great deal of humor and education of humanity in it's content. The movie was a complete transformation of the long story. It was truly a story come to life and the characters that were portrayed were truly as realistic as you could possibly accomplish. If you have seen the movie you should read the book, it gives you another chance to enjoy such a great and wonderful story. The best western novel and movie I have ever had the pleasure of enjoying.
