I guess I'm still confused about Cullen's whole purpose. He's obviously trying to get vengeance against a group of ex-Union soldiers, but have they revealed why? Wife murdered by them during the Civil War or something?

Yes this was revealed in the pilot. The circumstances surrounding it and the details haven't been addressed yet though.

Another good episode, I'm really enjoying this show.

I hope this doesn't take the hammy, predictable plotline of having the 'fair maiden' become his new love or something lame like that.

I didn't mind the tattoo on the whores chin... kinda gives you something to aim at.

I'm loving this show. The actor that plays Bohannan nails it with his don't-give-a-damn attitude. It's cool to see a western where the "good" guy shoots first and asks questions later.

Now that the much sought after maps are in town I wonder what chaos they will cause.

I'm interested to see if the two Irish brothers end up playing a larger part. The one brother was pretty fascinated with Durant. I wonder if he'll end up being Durant's lackey.

Bohannan is like an old West Jack Bauer, and I love it.
