Was bluegrass not in existence in the 1870s? Didn't know that.

I won't be watching it. It's too lilywhite - all the characters are white, as far as I've seen - and yes, I know lots of men wore moustaches then, but it's like Iraq in this series! The story is dull and slow, the script has tooth-on-edging historical inaccuracies in phrasing, the dull brown lighting so typical of American TV is a cliché, and there are few and stereotyped female characters. The whole thing reminds me of the games we used to have as children, making up cowboy stories as we went along and acting them out - no real sense of people in a gold rush staking their claims and working them, no sense of *real life*.
