Wayy off topic, but I don't know where to put this.
I just finished watching 'Lonesome Dove', an American mini-series about a period of time in our 'Old West'. I'd heard about it for a long time and finally caught it over the last few days. I really liked it and recommend it to you all. I mention it because it's gotten me thinking - are there any well-done, well-acted mini-series like 'Lonesome Dove' produced in your countries? Something that tells a good story about interesting characters during an interesting time in your countries' pasts? If so, I'd like to know about them - I want to watch more productions like this (particularly if it's very well done - 'Lonesome Dove' won several awards over here, including a Golden Globe for one of the actors; LD showcased a lot of locations in the territories that formed the settings of different parts of the story; it was also six hours long, which I think is great for a good story).
If you have a recommendation for a show along these lines, let's hear about it!
