Doc Windshadow Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 http://www.amctv.com/hell-on-wheels/videos/amcs-first-look-at-hell-on-wheels this Sunday at 10/9c on AMC judging by the trailer (above link) this looks like it might be interesting this is from the PR blurb email I got about the show. Hell on Wheels is a contemporary Western that centers on former Confederate soldier Cullen Bohannon, portrayed by Anson Mount, whose quest for vengeance has led him to the Union Pacific Railroad's westward construction of the first transcontinental railroad. Developed by Endemol USA and produced by Entertainment One (eOne) and Nomadic Pictures, Hell on Wheels is created, written, and executive-produced by Joe and Tony Gayton (Faster, Uncommon Valor, The Salton Sea, Bulletproof). The series premieres Sun., Nov. 6 at 10/9c. Hell on Wheels underscores the network's commitment to the Western, following its first original mini-series event, Broken Trail. The mini-series premiere, in Jun. 2006, was the second-most-watched cable movie since 1995 and delivered the network record ratings, including an average 7.7 household rating and nearly 10 million total viewers over its two-night airing.* "AMC's commitment to the Western is long-standing, and the genre is an important part of our brand and history as a channel," said Charlie Collier, president of AMC. "In Hell on Wheels, AMC is creating another epic and enduring American story." the web site says it was shot in Alberta Canada and the still and video on the site indicate good production values... so we shall see on Sunday how the actual show holds up to the PR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
