Forget Yellowstone, This Show Is The Most Accurate Western Ever Created 

Summary:

• Godless is a western drama released in 2017.
• The events of the series take place in the 1880s in the American West.
• The series is based on a true life story.

The genre of western had taken over the cinematic world a long time ago, but the TV industry also doesn’t sleep and keeps producing more and more worthy series for the fans of the genre.

Now, many of you are hooked on Taylor Sheridan 's creation, Yellowstone, and we understand why: the huge cast with so many flawed characters, the amazing landscapes, and the complicated stories of a dysfunctional family are what make the show so easy to watch.

But sometimes it’s good to look away from the thing everybody is talking about and go search for something else that you might like. And here we come to the rescue with our perfect western recommendation!

If you still haven’t seen it, it’s time to check out a 2017 western series called Godless. Set in the 1880s in the American West, the show gives us a dripping image or a criminal and outcast life.

Godless is a miniseries that only has 7 episodes, but even that is enough for the fans to fall in love with the unlikely story of a murderous outlaw gang leader Frank Griffin who tries to take revenge on his ex-protege Roy Goode.

Roy runs away and ends up in a small, female-run town called La Belle, where he meets Alice Fletcher and finds a home with her.

“Right off the top, the show looks stunning. The shots of New Mexico wilderness, especially the desert, are gorgeous.Next, the story is fantastic. Now, the show is a slow-burn, and the first few episodes are a little slow, but it picks up speed, and it all pays off in a phenomenal final episode,” Redditor mrmonster459 said.

It's important to note that the show is praised for its historical accuracy, and in fact became the most authentic Western show of all time.

The story itself is based on a true life story of La Belle in New Mexico, although with the help of fictional characters.

Godless is available to stream on Netflix.
