People might treat Taylor Sheridan whatever way they please, but one thing can’t be denied - the man single handedly brought back westerns to TV, making people watch heroic cowboys and saloon shootouts like it’s 1950’s again.
The success of Sheridan’s tenure as the de-facto creative director of Paramount + can’t be overstated, as fans began to look for similar tv westerns similar to “Lawnen: Bass Reeves”, paying more attention to the genre that Hollywood did for the last two decades.
Here’s 11 western shows to stream right now:
We decided to include only the best of the best for this list, not even including Sheridan's "Yellowstone, " because at some point during its five-season run, that show devolved into a soap opera, which will not sit well with fans of the genre, where emotion always took a back seat to gunplay and horseback riding.
However, we chose not to focus solely on period dramas for this list, as the Western genre became something much bigger than just a faithful recreation of the American frontier, becoming a quintessential trough genre, with strong men and women in the lead roles trying to make their American dreams come true.
