Buckshot Bear Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Anyone watch Joe Pickett? Saw the first episode last night, thought it was pretty OK. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14271652/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_1_nm_7_q_Joe%20Pickett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedalia Dave Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Season 1 was worth watching. I haven't started season 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 I like the show. I don’t like that Amazon is pretending to be a network and releasing an episode a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 I have read a number of the Joe Pickett series... enjoyable, all. This new TV series is pretty good. Not stellar, but pretty well done. I'm into the 2nd season. Good story, I think the writers might have combined 2 books for this. I hope they do a 3rd season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it’s a combination of “Blood Trail” & “Nowhere to Run.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chantry Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Read and liked all the books, but I'm still not going to pay for another streaming account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Sage, SASS #49891 Life Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 I too have read and enjoyed all the books....but I am not paying for any any computer downloads for movies. I live rural and my download speed is way to slow. I get lots of breaks so the computer can catchup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t read any of the books but sometimes “Joe” in the series really ticks me off when he doesn’t stand up for himself. He also needs to remember “reload!”.

Buckshot Bear Posted July 14 Author Share Posted July 14 Watched a few more, still enjoying it. Two major annoyances are his pea rifle and his hat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the books he can’t hit anything with a pistol and is a consummate “wing shot” with a shotgun. He doesn’t carry a rifle. He keeps a Remington Wingmaster, supposedly from his younger days, behind the drivers seat. The pistol is required by ‘Department Regulations’ and he barley qualifies during yearly re-qualifications. Don’t know about the hat. Uniform hats are not always a personal choice. I’ve read most of the Joe Pickett books. I guess I like them. Or I’m just bored with TV in general. I did watch the first season of the show. Not paying a premium to watch the second season. CJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 I have seen all of season one and up to episode 5 of season 2. He still wears that “Open Road” hat, which I call “the old timey con man hat” and he still carries his gun in a holster where the barrel sticks out. That’s an annoyance to me. (Yes, I know lots of people do it. It’s my pet peeve and I am sticking to it) Sounds like a bad rap song…. Without giving up anything in the plot I will say that Iin season 2 he’s not such a wimp, but still could use just a bit more machismo. I like the fact that the show is more realistic in regards to the main characters and the goings on of the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
