Thoughts on Frontier?

It's solid. Seems kind of cheap in some respects. Story seems kind of predictable and without nuance or depth. Travel times seem kind of screwy. Like they set out to search for Declan out in the Frontier of wilderness and then after not even a day of travel they just run into him. Pretty contrived and doesn't make much sense. There's lots of things like this how they are out in the wilderness one moment then popping into town the next.

Don't want to see like I'm giving it too much shite. It is an OK show, but it is one of the lesser quality Netflix shows.

The story line is right in my wheelhouse, so I really enjoyed it, but this is all true.

If you like it so far, you'll enjoy the rest.

Very few people go by just 1 name in the show. I agree with what others have said but I really enjoyed it. I think part of the problem is they had to pack alot in 6 episodes. it felt like they needed to get to the point in the story that they're at now and were willing to do silly things like have Michael wonder up on Declan, and have them borrow little fingers teleporter. But overall it has the pieces to be a really good show

I just finished it and enjoyed the show. Wish it was more than 6 episodes

I thought the last 2 episodes showed some promise and look forward to season 2.

Did anybody else think that the American fur traders "muscle" looked exactly like Will Forte? I couldn't tell if he was a badass frontiersman or MacGruber.
