Is this to say you'd not seen it until recently? How can that be???

I have no idea. I read the book, but missed the miniseries and didn't pay attention when it got put on DVD I guess. I'm kinda glad I did, watching it on my big screen was much better than it would have been.

If you enjoyed Lonesome Dove, try Broken Trail! Hubby and I watch both of these every so often and like them just as much each time!!

I've never seen it, but I'd like to. I have a question though. There are some skeezy farriers that hang out at the MD State Fair, and on their sign it says something like "We don't shoe pigs" or something like that. I asked what it meant, and they told me to watch Lonesome Dove. What does it mean? Is this a stupid question?

I can't say enough bout that movie, I have never seen a movie that nailed the characters from the book so perfectly. Read the book, then kinda half heartedly started watching the mini-series, expecting the worst. It's probably the only movie/mini series that I have ever seen where I think it was better than the book, and in my book, thats damn near impossible to do.

I may be mistaken but I thought it was something like 'we don't rent pigs' think it was on the "Lonesome Dove" ranch sign.

I think you might be right.

Yep, it's "We Don't Rent Pigs". You can buy it on eBay!!

Here's a quote from the movie from Gus about the sign...

"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... he's hard to stop."

You should really see it! Great movie/series. I remember watching it when it was a kid and just fell in love w/ it. I need to pull it out and watch it again. You will not be disaapointed.

I fell asleep last night and didn't get to see the end. I think I recorded it.....I hope.

 

[JULZ]

Awesome movie! The kind you can watch over and over and never get tired of.

It's one of the few shows I could sit there and watch the whole thing.
