Anyone watching Hell on Wheels? Fascinating show on AMC. Set in the time period right after the civil war during the building of the transcontinental railroad. Pretty authentic I think... right down to the period correct slurs... Spot on for blacks, NA's and Chinese. If you can't handle slurs it's not a show for you to watch. Definitely not something for kids to watch. I was caught off guard during the first episode... they need to run a disclaimer at the start of that show.
Common is a pretty good actor. Hes playing a former house slave. It seems to have some pretty good writers who work the fine line of good and evil for pretty much all the characters.
