The greatest movie ever
The greatest miniseries ever
The greatest character ever
From the greatest book ever
Came to life on tv�s across the country. I still tune in and watch it every time I see it on tv.



And Diane Lane was so hot. Would.

Greatness! And how.......

would too

You suck at video's Uncle Coyote

Meh

WE DON't RENT PIGS

I reckon I'm as American as anybody from Tennessee

$5 for a poke?

It was like Roots only better. But the best line in a movie ever was, " I love the smell of napalm in the morning " Thank you Robert for all the movies.

Great series

they say your a man of vision.

Woodrow has just buried Gus and puts up the grave marker made of the famous Hat Creek Cattle Company sign. Woodrow says: �I guess this�ll teach me to be careful about what I promise in the future.�

Lonesome Dove is the GOAT, so many iconic roles

�I hate rude behavior in a man. I won�t tolerate it.�

The last movie I saw was Jaws, so I won't comment.

What�s good for me ain�t necessarily good for the weak minded.

A man that wouldn't cheat for a poke don't want one bad enough.

My youngest son was so enamored with the movie he named his cow dog Woodrow. The scene where Gus lost his legs was heart wrenching for me. I was truly emotionally involved and that doesn't happen by just any movie. Great movie with great actors.

Excellent movie.

I had a dog named Woodrow, I currently have a dog named Lorrie, and had been saving the name Gus for in case I had a son, but since my daughter is a daughter, and my wife wouldn�t let me name her Gus (yes, that conversation took place), my next male dog will be named Gus.

Well we don't rent pigs and I figure it's better to say it right out front because a man that does like to rent pigs is... well he's hard to stop.

My favorite book and series of all time. I watch it every time it comes back on.

I believe this cold water shriveled my pod.

Remember when they had to hand Jake Spoon? God I hate that part every time it comes on. I know Jake messed up, but wish they�d have given him another chance.

I'd like to see the herd you and Jake would round up... A herd of whores maybe. - Captain woodrow F. Call to Gus McCray

Gus- "You know how it goes Jake. You ride with an outlaw you die with an outlaw. You crossed the the line."
Jake- "But I didn't see no line Gus."

Always tough to see Old Deets go out the way he did. That was a good man. Ever notice the size of his horse compared to all the others? It's huge

I need to find this movie...have never seen it.

are you saying that black men have bigger things between their legs?

Old Pea eyed Parker

Lol nah man. I'm talking bout his horse don't know what your talkin bout. Being a scout I guess it had to be a bigger faster horse than just a regular ranch horse.

I remember Friday nights, eating Pizza Hut and watching Lonesome Dove with my folks. We ate from TV trays, and it was the most exciting thing for the week. My childhood sucked.

I've never seen this flick, still time....
Maga

I�m not sure we can be friends anymore.

Yeah, I�m generally a starter friend anyway...was bound to happen.

Is a starter friend like a slump buster?

The Gus McCrae School of Bartending

Conceptually similar, but there�s a complete absence of wood.

Greatest ever, but holy cow I can�t believe that was 30 years ago. Where does the time go.

Sawhorse, read the book. Don�t post on here again until you do. You are not a complete man until you do so.

Then, read the others. Not quite as good, but still excellent.

You should be ashamed.

Calm down old man river.


It is a good show/book/all you mentioned thought.

D2 is 100% correct.

Also, The Border Trilogy by Cormac McCarthy should be required reading for all Texas students

Gus McCrae : I expected you to own a bank or at least a whorehouse by now Jake. It seems life has been a disappointment to both of us.

Greatest ever , read book then watch series , nothing will ever top it in my lifetime .

The next scene right after that buffalo chase got pretty exciting right quick if I remember.
I looked but can't find that next clip.

Just got it (book). See y�all back here after I finish it.

Little early in the mornin to go wigglin your bean, ain't it Jake

I suggest reading the book first and then watching Lonesome Dove.
i enjoyed all that series of books but Lonesome Dove was my favorite.
Most of the series movie sequels were good but no comparison to the original imo.
One of the movie series was a sort of a knockoff i guess you'd call it - Streets of Laredo maybe? It was OK but not great
That guy was one helluva writer. I read some of his other stuff and it was all good but Lonesome Dove set the bar at an untouchable notch far as I'm concerned.

Jon-

The knockoff that didn�t follow any of the Larry McMurtry books was Return To Lonesome Dove. It was horrible. Jon Voigt was in it.

Yeah, McMurtry had a bit of a tiff with the producers over insinuation that he was involved with that. They managed to get so much of the original cast back use some of the same sets but it was just a remake of the original with copycat characters.

From what I�ve heard of it, a bit of a tiff is putting it very mildly.
