Reviews

Osmiumos 3 episodes in and this show is rubbish. Poorly written, paper thin characters and plot. Clichés do not make a story, and a wet and muddy set and facial stubble does not make "gritty" or believable characters.So disappointing.The only believable character is the mud... It obviously requires considerable expense to establish such sets and to film in snow and cold. The writing simply does not do justice to the story concept or the natural environment.Can anyone believe the horses breaking away from the cart as a plausible plot device in episode 3? That could have been written by a 6 year old.Casting Sam Shepard and Tim Roth caught my attention, i was curious to see what Roth would do after Lie to Me.Unfortunately this show compares poorly to Hell on Wheels, which compared poorly to the exceptional Deadwood.I am astonished at the high ratings shown for this series. What are other reviewers seeing?I am done this series, it is an insult to my intelligence as a viewer.

qormi Very down-to-earth. Unpretentious, intelligent...pulls no punches. The re-creation of the boom town known as Dawson....the lawlessness, the dog- eat-dog mentality, the toiling and tedium as mud and rocks are shoveled as miners stake claims side-by-side in the ice-cold, slippery muck. The con men, prostitutes, thieves, murderers. Jack London depicted as a bright young man with a drinking problem. From the very first episode, you get the feeling that anything can happen...nobody is safe and there are layers to each character. The dialog seems very real...the conditions unrelenting.Dawson is an evil town...its inhabitants never at ease and stalked by disease and people driven by desperation to lie, steal, and kill.

wolfbarkley After reading over some of the over reviews, there seemed to be a few negative criticisms. When I heard Ridley Scott had a part in the making of this "show", I expected a masterpiece. I admit I was not mesmerized but I was also not disappointed.After reading some of the reviews criticizing the poor historical detail, one must remember that in order to keep the viewer watching some Hollywood drama needs to be manifested. After all, who wants to sit through six hours of a cinematic encyclopedia? In conclusion, if you are expecting a university lecture in History 101 with facts that are 100 percent accurate, then you will easy find a lot of things to criticize. If you enjoy western drama's then would recommended you watch the show. You may not get an authentic feel of the real gold rush, so just watch the show not expecting a history lesson.Please remember this is a fictional story loosely based on historical times in that Era, don't expect accuracy. It has a Good Storyline with very respectable acting and exceptional visuals. A good Watch.

angie-korb I lived in Alaska for many years. This show was disappointing. It was overly dramatic and very unrealistic. A man who falls in the Yukon would have frozen. My music teacher got his feet wet and died of hypothermia, the guy on the show was fully immersed and never built a fire afterward. Wolves don't attack people!!! My dad saw only one wolf the entire 16 years he lived, hunted and trapped in the bush and only because it was upwind. As soon as he clapped his hands it was gone in an instant. They're elusive. It seemed really similar to Game of Thrones, but I accept that show is unrealistic...it has dragons after all. I was hoping for more historical accuracy with this show.
