Although the Western genre has struggled on the big screen for the past few years (well, decades), it’s never been more alive on television. Whether it’s a classic series set in the Old West or a modern reinterpretation, the Western is not just surviving — it’s thriving.
And nowhere is that more evident than in Netflix’s latest show, "The Abandons." Starring Lena Headey and Gillian Anderson as a pair of warring matriarchs, "The Abandons" is set in rural Oregon and centers on a bitter feud over a lucrative patch of land. With both established talent and promising newcomers, the show weaves a thrilling tale full of action, intrigue and high-stakes drama.
