If you're looking for the perfect neo-Western binge while 'Yellowstone' is away, look no further than the far-superior 'Longmire.'
It's easy to attribute the recent success of the Western genre to a series like Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone. As one of the most-watched television shows of our day, not to mention the general hype surrounding the Dutton family, it's hard to ignore the real and lasting impact of the Paramount Network's flagship show. Though, unbeknownst to some, there was one neo-Western crime drama that ran on A&E before Yellowstone was even on our radar.
Walt Longmire Needs To Solve His Wife's Murder Along for the ride are Walt's lawyer daughter Cady and his best friend Henry Standing Bear , a member of the Cheyenne Nation. These two are the bedrock of Walt's life, paramount to getting him back in the world. You see, when the series starts, our hero is mourning the death of his wife, who supposedly died of cancer. But, in true mystery series fashion, it turns out that Martha was actually murdered, and Walt isn't sure by whom.
Take the Season 4 episode "Help Wanted," for instance. Aside from putting a handful of potential deputies through a rigorous training and testing process, Walt requires each of them to read John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men. The lawman's hope is that how each of them responds to the Depression-era classic's trademark ending might better reveal their character, and reveal any potential red flags. Only Walt Longmire would think of something like that.
Well-rounded characters like Mathias, Nighthorse, May Still Water , and Graham Greene's awful Malachi Strand only add to the series' mythos, refusing to allow caricatures and stereotypes to be the traditional representations of these people. Sure, Taylor Sheridan might have some interesting Native-led plotlines on Yellowstone , but Longmire tackled many of these issues long before. No wonder Longmire co-creator John Coveny was attached to the Paramount series' first two seasons.
