Plus TNT would actually promote Longmire. Id call this an A+ episode even though all the loose ends surrounding Marthas and Miller Becks deaths werent tied up well enough. 1:34 pm. Walt hitting Vic made me gasp, but her causal reaction was funny as hell as were subsequent scenes with Vic, Walt and Henry in the Red Pony, and then Walt and Henry in cemetry. [b]PerilPress[/b], Ive always liked Gerald McRaney going way back to Simon & Simon and Im kinda hoping hes not mortally wounded and sticks around a little more to add spice to these exceptional storylines. Dog stated: Thank you, Mr. Grainger for your wonderful posts! Barlow needed the Casino in the county to further his business interests, so he has her killed. I concur everyone is entitled to their opinion. I did notice Cady eyeing them, when Vic naturally and caringly cleaned Walts wounds at the Red Pony. I like syfy but this is better than the walking dead. With that finale I am really looking forward to the next season. Of course, but not all different opinions are negative, some criticisms are constructive. Thoroughly enjoyed it. And Walts not going to kill anyone, especially not the wrong guy! First, can you tell us a little about your new series, Crossfire, on Britbox? 3:36 am. Heres my off the wall suggestion: this show needs a Clydesdale advertisement to demonstrate strength and determination right along side beauty and gentleness. Ron DeSantis signed a bill on Monday to take control of municipal services and development for the special zone encompassing Walt Disney . Like some of you have mentioned, I too have been a little unclear as to why David Ridges would come after Branch with such vengence. The owner of the company, Barlow Connally, paid Ridges to kill Martha Longmire. When key players do the deed, it is often the demise of the show. Those story arcs were part of the cause for so many Vic haters and strong feelings Walt and Vic should not get together. Skyler nearly killed herself for walt's actions too. Thus far, weve been treated to a relatively small cast, just a few major players, and only a few important families. I enjoy the show & look forward to a new season. I just love this series. Zahn McClarnon does a very good job with that character. We just started watching Longmire this year, this past May. We just let them rant. The part when Walt was spreading his wifes ashes was so sad. While the battle of the ballot between Branch and Walt wasn't waged in this season finale of "Longmire" (Sun., 10 p.m. As for the ending didnt Barlow have his shotgun open over his shoulder?

You never saw Branch actually die. [b]emsA2[/b], incessant wind of the high plains and the loneliness. Thats a thought-provoking tidbit that Ive never heard. I dont think coming in on season 3 and being lost in the story arcs is unique to Longmire. I laughed at Walt & Henrys grave robbing antics and cried when Walt let Martha go. Favorite line remains, If you do the job right, Walt, by the time you put down your sheriffs badge, youre a wanted man. Longmire picks up the lone wolf who has been out in the cold for a majority of this season, desperately trying to convince anyone whod listen that the White Warrior was alive. Branch then delivers his father up to Longmire (his alternate father figure). [url=http://deadline.com/2014/08/longmire-cancelled-by-ae-will-be-shopped-elsewhere-826379/]http://deadline.com/2014/08/longmire-cancelled-by-ae-will-be-shopped-elsewhere-826379/[/url]. It would be the same with a lot of other shows, coming in after several seasons. Barlow then revealed a knife and stabbed himself twice, further framing Walt for his murder right in front of him. Looking forward to Season 4! Didnt watch it until this season. This is such a great show. A&E had a very good section on their website last year with detailed plot summaries, lists of cast members, including even the small roles, and information about the music chosen for episodes. A red herring so to speak. We welcome analyzing in-depth. Why not kill Longmire himself? Very slim possibility I know but I dont see the Branch/Barlow relationship ending this way. This show always surprises me so I am certain that a Season 4 would continue that trend. This show has it all..even my husband,, who normally only watches sports, never misses an episode of Longmire. Cady clearly saw more than the wound. She is devoted to her job and justice and cares about the victims so it is not surprising that Walt is so close to Vic and has developed feelings for her. I hope Branch isnt dead, but it seems like he might be and sometimes great characters have to die to advance a story.of course it could be his father who was shot, so.. Cindy Pierce Warner actually films the show and sells it to A&E, as I understand it. Barlow had Walt's wife killed because she was leading the charge against a proposed Casino in the county. I have unfortunately read too many threads where if you didnt agree with the relationship or didnt particularly like the Vic characterization, you were termed as jealous or a hater. Thank you for the kind words, [b]egmiller[/b]! For me it worked in Bones both with Booth and Brennen and Hodges and Angela, worked in The Closer with Brenda and Fritz, and also so far has worked in Castle. 11:08 pm. OnTheElk 3:54 pm, We truly enjoy this episode and think this show has the best cast on tv. I bet a lot of Longmire viewers watch Major Crimes. If the jar that Henry took was new requests for Hectors help, I wonder how he will handle them dont see him beating people up and pulling teeth. August 5, 2014 @ I thought maybe Bridges stole it just long enough to get to his horse. The finale had fewer viewers than the season premiere. The dying Barlow laughed, making Longmire realize the gun was empty. It would also be great to see he and Cady work their way back to each other. In case you dont know already the people behind The Closer are the mostly the same people behind Longmire. Several British stars have turned down the offer to help ring in King Charles III's coronation. I really hope it comes back for many seasons to come and I want 26 episodes per season! When it comes to Henrys case, we spent most of the 70 minutes basically convincing ourselves that the guy was going to go back to prison. While the battle of the ballot between Branch and Walt wasn't waged in this season finale of "Longmire" (Sun., 10 p.m. Loved the S3 finale, but the best part for us is that we had a family membered contacted by the film scouts to use their older home for a filming location for one of the S4 episodes ! I still feel like viewers arent being shown the entire picture, which is standard for mysteries but frustrating at the same time. Did you get that figure from the Longmire Posse group? Its been a lot of fun reviewing the show each week and meeting so many other fans of the show. Sean was out of town on business and Ed Goreski had just threatened Vic. Randy, I played the scene several times to see if by the shotguns empty cartridge I could tell because there was red and a silver casings and they show that final spent shell. But Vics Walt punched me leveled me. I wouldnt write him out until the divorce, although hes proven himself to be a coward in the face of dangernot Vics type. That character added tons this season but Im with you on Henry, Vic, and Walt interacting more. However, after Walt scatters his wife's ashes, he prepares to go after Nighthorse, believing him to still be involved. Longmire, Vic (Katee Sackhoff), and Ferg (Adam Bartley) search for Branch and eventually find his body in a river, an apparent suicide, based on the angle of the shotgun.. Who does Cady Longmire marry? Inside, Longmire commands Ferg (Adam Bartley) to clean out Branchs desk and take the man his belongings while the sheriff and Vic Moretti (Katee Sackhoff) set out to arrest Jacob Nighthorse. 7:20 pm. I just like this show regardless if people think some of the story arcs are unbelievable or have holes, Walt ignores jurisdiction, stretches the law, etc. I never watch A&E anymore, other than The Glades and Longmire. Finale did not disappoint. His son, Branch (The Connallys have some crazy names) , the sheriff's deputy, figured out that Barlow had Walt's wife killed. The anti Vic, anti Walt/Vic haters and trolls are just more vocal and use any opportunity to ignite the dialog to rant about their point of view. It had to be done before anything romantic could happen with Vic. Ive enjoyed Season 3 but in a Season 4 I would like to see a return to more episodes that are less the serial drama aspect of Longmire and more procedure/crime. Were we getting closer to the moment? Unless there is something business wise (contract negotiations going on?) And Branch turning his own father over to Walt will probably clear his way to return to his job. Id hate to see that here. Not at this point. There seems to me to be too much left undone if Barlow is eliminated, the money trail needs both Jacob and Dad Connally before the court of law to sort Casino land interests (What Martha knew), gun for hires, shell corporations, and find the Malachi (furlow) dirty connectionpowerful positions must have been utilized. Why does Barlow kill branch? Id love to see more of Peter Wellers character, Lucien Connally. Probably no chance though. Malachi needs to go down for his corruption and treatment of Henry if nothing else. I loved the humor. I did like the comment about it being the best thing that happened. Thanks for letting me vent. So, we wait and see if A&E is really about ENTERTAINMENT and renews Longmire. I could buy a Longmire soundtrack like they use to release for shows like Miami Vice. A really good show and we would hate to see this series end. If the arc is well done, like Ridges, I dont mind. Btw thank you for all your comments this past season. Who knows what A&E will do? Longmire made a HUGE move for a show with an uncertain future, exposing Barlow as the man responsible, but also not having Walt arrest him. Best episode yet! August 5, 2014 @ Of course, I was left asking: who set the wheels in motion for Miller Beck to kill Martha Longmire? Outside the office, Longmire bars Branch from going in. But if he did, he died redeemed. DrewOFB, A very quick check says the song was Lawdy by The Vespers. Walt refutes this, however, saying that he has never loved. Please be back with season 4 soon. This year, I recommended this show to a lot of people. I just loved it all and cried along with Walts throaty words. It may be its ultimate downfall which would be a shame. I really dont want to see Walt & Vic in a relationship. It is unfortunate that the writers are unlikely to consider having Branch kicked off completely. With the close relationship that all the Longmire executive producers have shared with TNT, Im surprised they took Longmire to A&E with their reputation with scripted dramas. . They recover the body, and Longmire gets to reach into the deceaseds seriously macabre-looking skeleton to pull out the featherthe main piece of evidence that finally clears Henry. Another controversy involving Branch was the killing of Walt's wife. Sorry for the length. Robert W. Hamlett kickyourace It has been reported that A&E is contracturally obligated to make a renewal decision by August 31st. Luckily, Walts daughter proved herself to be more than capable. I simply dont watch television, with the exception of Monday nights. Just leave it as she died of cancer like in the books and then whole Henry being charged and arrested would not be needed. In this storyline and others, they went against book canon. I, too, enjoyed the one-liners and am glad that Henry is now free of his charges and glad, too, that Fales had his come-uppance. I however have been on sites where people are downright nasty if you express you like the Vic character, or say she has some redeeming quailties, or she is the most reliable deputy, or disagree with their opinion at all and the same people post over and over and over and over again even when the topic may not be about Vic and they have already expressed their opinion. Celebrity. I loved how it tends to be fairly low key, relative to many other cop shows, and yet can still offer But as we both stated all are entitled to their opinion. Yes, I am reading them in order I do always like to do that. The interplay between Henry & Walt seems true to Craig Johnson books. Arcs settled. 3:59 am. Too many tv shows are lazy and predictable keeping on main characters that should be gone to shake up the show. LOVE THIS SHOW!! Instead we get the same cliffhanger of Branch in danger as last season. Keep it going!!!!!! He started asking about Ridges, once he put two-n-two together. I dont like the idea of Branch in any other job but with the sheriffs department. Please bring the Longmire BACK even if it re runs. One of only a handful of truly great drama and intelligent writing for adults. Martha was attacked by Miller Beck on the street after a chemo session in Denver. Did you hear his say that he cant make another fortune but he could make another son ? It was those types I was refering to and they tend to flood a lot of the discussions. It seemed to have old But all this begs the question, if Barlow Connally hired David Ridges to kill Martha Longmire, did Ridges do the deed himself, or did he outsource the murder by hiring Miller Beck? In tonights finale Walt was driving it like it was never stolen/borrowed. The sexual tension between Booth & Bones was great, having them marry was not. Everything is superb! Cheers for Season 4! There did not seem time for this without Branch taking some kind of action. Boom! Walt and Vic will ruin a perfect working relationship if they move to a personal relationship. Top of his game. This is the first time in three seasons that that has happened. But praying to the Corporate Gods cant hurt! Longmire fan 308 I have enjoyed reading the posts on this site this year, and thank you for providing an outlet for comments and opinions. PaulK, I feel after he spread Marthas ashes he was headed to confront Jacob Nighthorse. Stephanie Nolasco, Ashley Papa. I really want to see Walt, Vic, Lucien and Henry work a case with banter between all 4 of them. Was anyone curious who took off in Walts truck just prior to David Bridges attack in last weeks episode? Dog, I agree with your Walt/Vic comments, they have been encumbered by the story arcs. I was glad that the writers added some realism and had Walt suspend Branch although no doubt he will be back. Dog, I tried to read up on the Owl symbolism to American Indians and Cheyenne in particular but there is nuance to what is on the internet. I also agree that there seems to be more to Barlows malice toward Walt. It was only five minutes before the end of the episode when this happened, and we were still confused but only briefly. Not too many folks are that willing to catch up with a new show. @Kay Vics character was most definitely not on 24. In the back of the sheriffs vehicle, David Ridges (David Midthunder) lies dead. No, Walt does not find out that Barlow killed his wife. SEE ALSO: Of course, we're covering Season 4 of Longmire,starting with the premiere Down By the River! In Branchs tired, vacant stare at his would-be assassin, theres a mixture of disbelief that his ordeal is finally over, perhaps, wondering if, even now, the corpse wont come back alive for one more encounter. Also Ive finally come to accept the Walt & Vic relationship. But then it can be fun to think it about it anyway. BTW, as to Branch firing a warning shot Remember the Owl showed up the messenger of death. I think Henry took the jar with requests for Hectors services because he is going to take over the role of providing justice to the Cheyenne when they cant get it anyplace else. I doubt well get more. I went back to S1 and the S2 to catch up. The owl seemed to guide Walt to a cabin and that was essential to him surviving and going on. austinmoose He really has the upper edge even though he was distracted. I love that it can do case of the week episodes while still having small, multiple episode arcs, as well as season and series-long arcs. Walt Longmire's fictional biography. What was in the jar was Walts dead wife ashes! You saw Walt's reaction to hearing the gunfire, which proved that he is nearby and therefore capable of coming to the rescue. I agree with all of you. I feel like there is too much unresolved with Malachi and Nighthorse and more for us to discover there but I dont think Nighthorse intended for Walts wife to be murdered. August 5, 2014 @ The writers are doing a slow build-up and Im comfortable with that direction. Do that , then watch the ratings go UP UP and way UP! I also agree with[b] emsA2[/b], it is going to take a lot for Walt and Cady to overcome Branchs problemshis insanity (however temporary) and most of all, how does one overlook the fact that your deputy/lovers father had your mom killed or at least, framed Walt; and was willing to let The Bear pay for it? I agree with those that have commented about how it might be hard to join Longmire as a viewer Season 3 and beyond because you dont know what is going on with the characters stories. Grade: A-.
