Lonesome Dove
The epic film as big as the west.
On CBS
An elegiac Western miniseries about aging friends pursuing one final adventure, balancing the romance of the frontier with the weight of mortality and time.
A pair of longtime friends and former Texas Rangers crave one last adventure before hanging-up their spurs. After stealing over a thousand head of cattle from rustlers south of the border, they recruit an unlikely crew of hands to drive the herd 3,000 miles north to the grasslands of Montana.
