This is the first time I’ve seen every episode of the Lonesome Dove Outlaw Years and The Series on one set. It’s $22–the same price as a 5 DVD set, and this one has 10 DVDs! I loved this series when it was on TV, and it’s great to see Echo Bridge put together an “ultimate collection” for a classic series that deserves more recognition than it gets! Clear quality and pure entertainment. Buy it if you’re a fan!

I am not particularly a western fan, but I do love Lonesome Dove the movie. Both “The Series” and “The Outlaw Years” were very engrossing and very enjoyable. For the most part, the stories and the characters carry you easily through spots of mediocre acting and directing and some, um, unusual filmmaking. The two series are quite different in tone and attitude. I let my seven year old watch “The Series”, but not “The Outlaw Years” because of the increase in violence and change in the general mood.
You don’t get to find out what happens at the end of “The Series” until the first episode of “The Outlaw Years”. It seems they intentionally left it open-ended to keep their options open.
Then “The Outlaw Years” doen’t ‘end’ at all. It just stops. Many developing threads are left hanging. It is as if it got cancelled mid-season.
Lastly, the DVD production is less than stellar. The navigation is strange and the numbering and labeling on the DVDs is inconsistent or non-existent, but nothing that can’t be worked out.
Bottom line: Sometimes odd in its production, but completely worth watching.

This is a GREAT western series, If you haven’t seen it
you are missing out on a wonderful series of movies.
The Lonesome Dove saga is a masterpiece of western life, and
the trials they endured. Watch it, you’ll LOVE it.!!

I watched all the Lonesome Dove movies and was really delighted when I found this set of Lonesome Dove television series episodes. I had never seen them when they were on TV. Now, almost every evening,my husband and I can’t wait to see the next episode of Newt Call and his life in what was still the wild west. Newt is married to Hannah, and they have their differences, but they are young and in love and everything seems to work out for them. Each episode has an exciting plot and leaves you wanting to see what happens next! The photography in this series is every well as fine as it is in the 4 movies (that I know of). Maybe there are more than 4 and I just don’t know about it! Highly recommended!!

The first 5 DVDs are acceptable but the stories cannot be compared with the other Lonesome Dove productions at all. The stories in the last 5 DVDs are very boring, and poorly written. Most stories are loosely linked and the characters within the stories are inconsistent. Especially with the “Outlaw Years” series in the last 5 DVDs, there were no more heroes in any episodes; just a group of disrespectful western frontiers, trying to survive. Very disappointing stories, and acting! I wish I had not bought this Ultimate Collection!
