Western

Livet i Colorados vildmark sätter familjen Macahan på hårda prov i den gripande andra säsongen av How the West Was Won - en av de mest episka TV-westerns genom tiderna. Äventyret fortsätter när den härdade Zeb (James Arness) hamnar mitt i ett krig mellan Sioux-stammen och den amerikanska armén, medan den äldste Macahan-sonen (och fortfarande på flykt) Luke (Bruce Boxleitner) hittar något farligare än de hämndlystna lagmän som jagar honom: ett dödligt gäng med före detta federala guldrånare. <br/><br/>Moster Molly Culhane (Emmy®-vinnaren Fionnula Flanagan) ansluter sig till familjen och ger Macahan-barnen och gården irländskt mod och ett öppet hjärta. År två av Macahan-sagan innehåller militära sammandrabbningar, boskapsdrivning, markövertagande och guldfeber, och är fylld av spänning och episka berättelser lika vidsträckta som den öppna gränsen.

I den tredje säsongen fortsätter Zeb Macahan (James Arness, Gunsmoke) att leda Familjen Macahan..

Hela första säsongen av Familjen Macahan i tre delar från 1977 + pilotavsnittet från 1976!<br/><br/>Året är 1861 och det amerikanska inbördeskriget kryper allt närmare.

De vill starta ett nytt liv långt bort från krigets fasor, och under farbror Zebs ledning börjar de sin färd, som kommer att bli både lång och farlig.<br/><br/>Westernfamiljen Macahans öden och äventyr fick svenska folket att bänka sig andaktigt framför TV-apparaterna på sjuttiotalet.<br/><br/>Dags att sadla på, sitta upp och följa med västerut med Zeb, Luke och de andra i FAMILJEN MACAHAN!

Nu släpps den omtalade filmen "Rust" - fyra år efter att en filmfotograf sköts ihjäl. Filmens huvudrollsinnehavare Alec Baldwin stod länge åtalad för "ofrivilligt dråp" efter dödsskjutningen men friades senare.<br/><br/>På 1880-talets Wyoming råkar den föräldralöse Lucas Hollister (Patrick Scott McDermott) döda en ranchägare och döms till hängning.

Kampen om Colorado handlar om utvecklingen av den fiktiva staden Centennial i Colorado, med början från 1700-talet fram till 1970-talet. Historien börjar i mitten av 1700-talet, då Arapahoindianer i det som skulle bli norra Colorado för första gången stöter på vita pälsjägare (trappers). En av dessa trappers är Pasquinel, en fransk-kanadensare som har kommit till området för byteshandel med bäverskinn.
