jaimy_vannuil Best show ever! PLEASE let there be a season 2!! I will watch the ... out of it!

joeandsarita Really enjoyed the first season, it was one of those shows that really grows on you. Now at the end of the first season I'm hungry for more, please keep this awesome TV show alive!

bsant54 I thoroughly enjoyed this series. A SLEEPER.One thing about this show, you get to know the characters very well and fast - great writing and acting. Something you can rely on as the series progresses. Just finished it on Netflix. I only review titles I feel strongly about and this is definitely one of them.Basically, a cowboy Western cast in 30s USA Iowa with the required shoot outs, corrupt law enforcers, salt of the Earth country folk fighting for their rights and livelihoods, evil industrialists and your requisite group of evil doers...the show had a bit of everything from that genre and made it all come together in fine style.They assembled a very good group of actors for this show. Logan Marshall-Green brought a ruggedness and vulnerability to his character, playing the brother of Killian Scott's character - his acting and character grow on you as the series progresses. Scott's character was destined to fail redemption and zeal, in your face by Killian. One running away from his past, trying to reinvent himself and with the past catching up to him while the other embracing that past. They were both wonderful. The supporting cast were just as memorable and well acted by the likes of Christopher Heyerdahl, self interested Sheriff at the outset that does good in the end, Gabriel Mann was as slick and slimy as could be as the front man for an evil industrialist and Melinda Page Hamilton played the frightening, of one mind and yet predictable/unpredictable Connie...I will not spoil that gem of a performance for you. They were all very good. Just a few standouts for me where all the characters were memorable...too many to talk about here.Netflix or whomever created Damnation, bring us Season 2.

cmcnaul I enjoy this show. And that says a lot when I really despise Depression Era movies and all. But I did enjoy Road to Perdition too, and I will add Damnation to my list of likes. But I have one exception: Being a "Sod-Buster's Daughter" from Iowa, born and raised, and will never despise my humble beginnings.......Just WHERE did you folks find pine forests in Iowa? Hmmmm? I was taken back just a bit at that creek and bridge shot that looked an awfully lot like Wyoming or Colorado and the like. But we (Iowa) do have areas near the Mississippi River areas, Loesse Hills, Muscatine (major river valley areas of the state of Iowa). There were some personalities in characters that did not pull of that "Iowa" charm. I have serious doubts about AA farmers. Even to this day there are lots of Iowa towns that rarely see people of color. However there were the coal towns that were called "black" towns. (not my words nor of my upbringing. I was in my 30's when I moved to a big city, sat in an arena of believers worshiping God in unity from all colors of the world, I bawled my eyes out.So don't make the mistake of me being a racist). Many of those towns dried up and disappeared when the recession of the 1880's. My point is the show is great, but your portrayal of Iowans............sad..........just...sad! And I still have to make time to research this "farmers protest stuff". I have never heard of such a thing, nor do I recall the elders speak of such things happening. But I'm open to correction and re-education. Did anyone even like...ask an Iowan about Iowa? just wonderin'....
