Last night's (I'm gonna watch it today) was the last episode of this season. Next season is the last season, and the bastards are splitting it between 2015/2016.

The last couple of episodes this season, featuring Ruth, were freakin' intense and very well done.

We've had a whole thread on it. Have you caught Longmire too?

What season is Netflix on right now for Hell on Wheels? I'm waiting to renew my subscription....

I'm guessing Season 3, since Season 4 is on the air. I get HoW on Amazon, as I do Longmire and Justified, because I like them so much I wanted to both not wait for seasons to get on Netflix and also wanted to own them. I don't buy that many series, but those three are well worth it.

Sadly, this is also the last season of Justified, and the bastards cancelled Longmire. I read Longmire is being shopped to other networks.

I think I heard that Longmire had been picked up by Netflix.

Netflix actually seems to respond to the wishes of subscribers, vs the networks...

That's awesome. Go Netflix! Wish they would have been doing series when Firefly was cancelled.

Did anyone notice that the locomotive on Hell on Wheels is fake as he11? Not complaining, and I know it is difficult and expensive as he11 to get and use an authentic period locomotive.

Did you notice that you used "Hell" and/or "he11" 3 times in your post and the autocensor didn't pick up "Hell"?   :laugh:

LOL I've been binge watching and am halfway through season 4 now.  It didn't hurt that I was able to stream netflix at work last night on my laptop and watch several episodes.
