Hind sight is always better,
I have just finsihed watching and saying good-bye to this series. I am ashmaed to say that I didn’t watch it that much when it came out in 1998. That is why such a fine series died, it didn’t find its audience. The second season really drives home how well this series would have been if it had been allowed to go on. The stories are better and the characters are given more to do and allow to develope as full people. In the second season each is given time in each story to build their character. The last show on the disc where Chris finally finds his wife killer was one that you wouldn’t expect to find in a tv western. It was showed the back groud of Chris. Buck learned what true beauty was and Josiah explains golf so that all can understand it. Yes it is a sad farewell, it is ashamed that tv can create something that is wonderfull, kill it off, and give us crap. However the real villian is all of us who didn’t support this show and shows like it.

|Greatest Television Series Ever!,
The Magnificent Seven is the greatest television series ever, period. It only lasted two seasons, but it could have gone ten if TV series were renewed on quality rather than ratings.
Start with seven men who seemed to be born to play these roles. Whether they were a gunfighter, a bounty hunter, a gambler, a healer, a holy man, a womanizer, or a kid wanna-be, these guys were all perfectly cast. Add in the striking blonde Laurie Holden as Mary Travis and Robert Vaughn as Judge Travis and the regular characters are top-notch and perfect. The sexual tension between Chris Larabee (Michael Biehn) and Mary Travis added to the enjoyment of every episode.
I also have to throw in a kudo to one of my old acting coaches, Karen Hensel, who appears from time-to-time in this series as a storekeeper. The sets and costuming were always authentic. The stories were consistent with what we want to believe about the old west. Each episode of this series is a one-hour vacation into a time past, where we all want to go from time to time.
We have seen these men cast in subsequent roles – such as Eric Close (One of my favorite actors, who plays Vin Tanner in this series) as an FBI investigator in “Without A Trace,” – and although they are all great talents, they will never again be cast in roles that so perfectly fit them.
I was ecstatic when I was able to buy the first season on DVD, and now that I own both seasons, I never have to worry about “not having anything to watch.”
I absolutely believe this is the greatest television series ever. I would be hard pressed to imagine a series would come along and be more enjoyable.

|Fun and unique,
It is about time the second season came out! It was an excellent show when it first aired, and it wears it’s additional years very well. It’s a perfect blend of drama and comedy, with the spice of the old west – there’s simply nothing like it on TV today!
