While I didn’t exactly love Netflix’s American Primeval, my penchant to be more forgiving for gritty westerns nonetheless resulted in me enjoying it well enough despite a few nitpicks, the most egregious of which is Sara’s (Betty Gilpin) annoying, Karen-esque self-righteousness. That aside, the absolute brutality demonstrated on screen is surely accurate to the era, showcased through incredible cinematography and a production design so palpable that you can almost feel the blood on your face. It’s not always an easy watch, but at only six episodes, it’s probably one of the more authentic representations of the American West, which means it’s worth your time.
