Broken Trail is great, Old Henry is great, and Silverado is awesome, I remember watching Silverado with my father when it came out, brought back great memories of my Dad, thank you.
Big thank you to everybody that commented on my original video and support the channel in general, this video is for you guys. Also, do let me know below if you have any underrated Western TV show suggestions for a possible follow-up video!
One of my favorite T.V. Westerns was the life and times of Grizzly Adams with Dan Haggerty. Not a traditional western but had a great feel. Enjoyed this and Little House on the Prairie a lot when I was growing up.
The best part of “ My Name Is Nobody “ is when Terrence Hill goes to Boot Hill and among the gravestones is the name “ Sam Peckinpaw “ to which Hill proclaims “ sound good in Navaho “, lol
Westward the Women, The Last Hunt (56), Vera Cruz, Jeremiah Johnson, The Unforgiven (60), A Man in the Wilderness, Yellow Sky, The Alamo (60), Red Sun, Lonely Are the Brave and Last Train From Gun Hill are great westerns. Nowadays almost nobody seems to know these films.
Big thumbs up for Westward The Women and Yellow Sky - two flicks that most know nothing about. The Unforgiven - though not perfect - is well worth the watching; written by the same man who wrote The Searchers, it reverses the story by having the Native Americans wanting back a young woman who was taken from them and raised by settlers. With Burt Lancaster, Audrey Hepburn, Lillian Gish. Directed by John Huston. Two more older forgotten gems: Hell's Heroes and Miracle In The Sand (aka, The Three Godfathers) - both versions of The Three Godfathers that put John Ford's film to shame.
Seriously, my thoughts exactly. I have a feeling a lot of the people who gave these suggestions are on a young side with a somewhat limited knowledge of popular film history.
It's so funny how in the original "underrated" video people were saying that author should have added silverado and now people are complaining that it's on the list
_The Homesman_ is truly one of the most undeservedly overlooked westerns. It's a brutal kick in the guts with its stark realism, and the suffering of its characters. In spite of a dismayingly tragic climax, the conclusion was validating and somewhat uplifting. I think I'll have to get this (again) someday; it's still worth it in spite of the climax. *A modest recommendation:* _The Dead Don't Hurt,_ starring Viggo Mortensen. It came out around Memorial DAy this year. Pretty slow-moving, but I thought it was gritty and realistic, holding fast to western tropes.
Really not a fan of Kevin Costner, but recently stumbled across "open range" and absolutely loved it - I think for every cliche it offered something a bit different. Also Absolutely love The Proposition! Great list, couple on there I need to check out. Grew up with Grizzly Adams & Little house on the prairie - love those for not being fun toting tropes. But best series I've seen of late is "Godless".
Old Henry is fantastic! Open Range is one of my favs...as is The Assassination of Jesse James. check out News of the World...and Kevin Costner's Wyatt Earp. i like much more than Tombstone.
Most of them films I have heard people mention at one time of another but Hang Em High would get my vote. People mention so many Clint Eastwood westerns, but for me I believe this is one of the most underrated of them all and of the entire Western Genre. I love this film, the opening pre-credits sequence was tense, the score was great, the acting, the very different views of justice held by Clint Eastwood's & Pat Hingle's Characters in the film, the romantic subplot with Inger Stevens was well handled, and the tense ending.
Fine list. One not included is called Posse, starring Bruce Dern and Kirk Douglas. It's a wonderful morality play. Virtually impossible to find, though.
lonesome dove: the outlaw years was an incredible gritty show. to see newt call transformed into a dangerous outlaw is really something. 15 years ahead of its time in my opinion. good luck finding it though.
@@staggerlee7301 It’s phenomenal. The acting by the entire ensemble is extraordinary. I hope Hillcoat brings this same A-game to Blood Meridian and reunited with Guy Pearce
Well add them to my list haha, great video, for shows, I really enjoyed, Wild Wild West at 5, Hell on Wheels as a 4, Bonanza as a 3, Little house on the prairie if you count it as a western as 2, and Deadwood as my favorite Western show, but I need to see the rifleman and lonesome dove before I can know for sure haha
Lonesome Dove was fantastic by I think the short series Hell on Wheels, Deadwood (the follow up movie included) were just the best westerns modern day had to offer.
the assasination of jesse james a master peice and arguably my favourite western film with its realistic feal and its real story its based on its a masterpiece
Although Gunsmoke is (to my knowledge) the longest running live action TV show in the US and seemed to be popular during its day. It is still totally underrated! Everything about this production is A+ (especially the first 10 seasons or so). Writing, Directon, Cinematography, Costumes, Music (Bernard Hermann, Jerry Goldsmith, etc.) It also features some of the greatest character actors of all time! (Strother Martin, Jack Elam, Dean Stanton, etc.) Later included breakout young actors like Harrison Ford and Jodie Foster, among others. It should be discussed among the greatest of any genre. If aspiring filmakers want to learn how to do it right on every level you can start and end here. In the history of all TV, some may come close but nothing beats it.
"They call me Trinity" may not have been a hit in the US But all over Europe it was HUGE, Bigger than any American western at the time. Same goes for the sequel "They Still call me Trinity".
@@BluesmanDizzy i figured it was seeing how they made so many crappy sequels not the my name is still Trinity one but the Trinity sees red revenge of Trinity ECT the fight before Christmas was really good but idk if it was considered a Trinity movie or not
Ed Harris in Riders Of The Purple Sage...a classic western novel brought to the film stage. Bill Pullman in The Virginian....you living under a rock, limey>
Joe Kidd is one of my favorites. Slow West is a great western that doesn’t get much attention but really should I’ve watched it twice and will again. That would have been my #1. Check it out!
Two I would add but not sure what list to put it on is (you probably covered these already).... "Valdez Is Coming" - 1971 is a western with the most unusual ending. And "The Professionals" - 1966 about a rescue attempt with Burt Lancaster, Lee Marvin, Woody Strode, Jack Palance, Robert Ryan and the beautiful Claudia Cardinale.
Most underrated TV Western? That's easy. Firefly. Yeah, there's spaceships and sci-fi trappings. But there's also a cagey, misunderstood outlaw, a hooker with a heart of gold, a loyal gan....ummm, crew. It's of a piece with Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. Oh, speaking of underrated Western TV....
In America the most underratd or better unknown Western is the Austrian-German Film "Das finstere Tal" or "The Dark Valley" as it is named internationally! A fantastic Movie set in Austria (NOT Australia!) but has the style of a true Western! A mysterious man arrives in a village deep in the Austrian Alps to have revenge upon the family that rules the whole valley. The setting is phenomenal but unfamiliar to a western what gives this movie its outstanding uniqueness! An absolute MUST WATCH for Western Fans...
"The Hired Hand", with Peter Fonda, and "Comes a Horseman", with Jane Fonda, James Caan and Jason Robards. Nothing really creative or great about them - except the performances, the spectacular scenery and cinematography of Comes a Horseman -, but I love these movies. (off topic commentary: I never saw Jeremiah Johnson cited in any of your videos. It's my pick for the greatest western movie ever...)
I can only give my impressions of which TV Westerns are underrated. I don't know if they actually were, whether critics panned them or not. "The Guns of Will Sonnett" starring Walter Brennan is an important one, IMHO. "Branded" starring Chuck Connors was one I liked. It was quite jarring at first since the role he played was so different than Lucas McCain on "The Rifleman" (which was also a good one, but hardly underrated). And I don't know if it qualifies as "underrated," but "Wanted: Dead or Alive" with Steve McQueen was good. Oh, and it may primarily be important to me because I'm a Texan, but "The Rebel," another series from my childhood. I can still hear the the theme song (Johnny Cash sang it).
Great list…Clint Eastwood should have directed Joe Kidd with nooooo bowler hat as it was a show wrecker from the get go…The Harder They Fall was a great western..,The Quick and the Dead was all eye candy with hardly any script..Old Henry was one of the best on the list with the classic My Name is Nobody..
Try Hombre, Ulzana's Raid, The Long Riders, The Furies, The Professionals, Yellow Sky, The Gunfighter, Heartland, Hell's Heroes and Three Godfathers (1936 - aka, The Miracle In The Sand - same story but much better than the John Ford movie).
I feel like there's a bit of a disconnect here when it comes to what "hidden" means culturally. Several of these films are immensely popular amongst Western fans and even general audiences and have been for decades, in spite of whatever the audience who voted for them seem to think. Silverado and The Quick and The Dead both come immediately to mind. I have a feeling, and I could be wrong, that a huge number of the the suggestions and recommendations for this particular entry came from people under like 40. Great list, mind you.
If you haven’t watched old Henry don’t read any spoilers just watch it and thank me later. Once you see the end you’ll have to pick your jaw up. My grandfather and I loved every minute of it ESPECIALLY THE END.
I will probable be the only person to mention this film, but I really thought the movie " Alone Yet Not Alone " (2013) was a refreshingly good movie, and one of a few Christian movies (and only Western) to get my attention as being far above par. Low budget but outperforms in most categories. P.S. I enjoyed your previous list in the first video... three of them were good watches for me that I had not seen before.
I'm surprised about the absence of "Blackthorn"! The Manhunt through the Uyuni Salt Flats is magnificent because of the setting in Bolivia. As i mention Bolivia you can simply guess that the man with the name Blackthorn is a surviving Butch Cassidy. Great Movie... And where is "Wind River"? Imho the best contemporary Western. Or was it not so hidden in the US? But if you got Silverado in the list, Wind River is defnitely more a hidden gem...
Really a fan of Open Range. It's has slow start to take in the grandeur of West which was probably off putting for some. But I enjoyed that aspect immensely . But the missing element, where the film really finds its stride, is when Annette Bening makes her appearance. You wouldn't think that the romantic element mattered. But it does. It fits the definition of an Under Appreciated Western as the IMDB score was nothing special. You would think that all the viewers of Yellowstone would go back to check out this movie. It would really scratch that itch while Yellowstone is still on a long hiatus.

Love The Proposition. I seem to recollect that Nick Cave did the soundtrack to The Assassination of Jesse James too.😊
He did, him and Warren Ellis, along with quite few other good films. He also wrote the script for The Proposition
For Westerns on TV; Godless, The English, and Lonesome Dove were all outstanding. As good as almost any movie Western.
Lonesome dove has the most incredible casting I have ever seen in a film from a book
Lonesome Dove is hands down the best western I've ever seen. Mini Series or not. Haven't any western on it's level
Hateful Eight is more of a gore fest than a western, it is QT though
Broken Trail, a miniseries from 2006 with Robert Duvall and Thomas Hayden Church, is my definite pick for a "newer" hidden gem.
Broken Trail is great, Old Henry is great, and Silverado is awesome, I remember watching Silverado with my father when it came out, brought back great memories of my Dad, thank you.
Big thank you to everybody that commented on my original video and support the channel in general, this video is for you guys. Also, do let me know below if you have any underrated Western TV show suggestions for a possible follow-up video!
And if you missed it, here is the original video of my Top 10 MOST Underrated Western Movies Ever Made: ua-cam.com/video/wC2eyho_eL4/v-deo.html
Silverado is a great western and a classic from the 80's . I have seen him in the cinema and love him from day one. Greetings from the Netherlands
Really like Open Range.
The Proposition is the greatest western of the 21st century.
What about "Missing" with Tommy Lee Jones and Kate Blanchet.
Rough Riders is another one I loved watching.
One of my favorite T.V. Westerns was the life and times of Grizzly Adams with Dan Haggerty. Not a traditional western but had a great feel. Enjoyed this and Little House on the Prairie a lot when I was growing up.
The Proposition has some of the most impressive Irish accents from actors who weren't actually Irish
The best part of “ My Name Is Nobody “ is when Terrence Hill goes to Boot Hill and among the gravestones is the name “ Sam Peckinpaw “ to which Hill proclaims “ sound good in Navaho “, lol
The Sacketts
2 part mini series, based on two Louis L'amour books, The Daybreakers and Sackett
Westward the Women, The Last Hunt (56), Vera Cruz, Jeremiah Johnson, The Unforgiven (60), A Man in the Wilderness, Yellow Sky, The Alamo (60), Red Sun, Lonely Are the Brave and Last Train From Gun Hill are great westerns. Nowadays almost nobody seems to know these films.
Big thumbs up for Westward The Women and Yellow Sky - two flicks that most know nothing about.
The Unforgiven - though not perfect - is well worth the watching; written by the same man who wrote The Searchers, it reverses the story by having the Native Americans wanting back a young woman who was taken from them and raised by settlers. With Burt Lancaster, Audrey Hepburn, Lillian Gish. Directed by John Huston.
Two more older forgotten gems: Hell's Heroes and Miracle In The Sand (aka, The Three Godfathers) - both versions of The Three Godfathers that put John Ford's film to shame.
If Silverado, The Quick and the Dead and Open Range is a hidden western gem. Star Wars and Star Trek is a hidden sci-fi gem
That's what I was thinking. Silverado is one of the best known westerns from the 80's, a decade that doesn't have a lot of competitors.
Yeah Costner is western hero today, and he made his career stealing scenes in Silverado.
Seriously, my thoughts exactly. I have a feeling a lot of the people who gave these suggestions are on a young side with a somewhat limited knowledge of popular film history.
Exactly what I was thinking when I was watching this video. Using this logic, The Avengers is the most hidden and underappreciated super hero film.
It's so funny how in the original "underrated" video people were saying that author should have added silverado and now people are complaining that it's on the list
The Culpepper cattle company is a hidden gem...
I'm amazed it's not more well known .It's a superb movie and really deserves more recognition.
Yes, that's a great movie. And very realistic for it's time.
Outlaw Josey Wales & The Long Riders are both incredible old weaterns
Agree 100% . Many of my Montana friends see The Outlaw Josey Wales as the best western ever.
_The Homesman_ is truly one of the most undeservedly overlooked westerns. It's a brutal kick in the guts with its stark realism, and the suffering of its characters. In spite of a dismayingly tragic climax, the conclusion was validating and somewhat uplifting. I think I'll have to get this (again) someday; it's still worth it in spite of the climax. *A modest recommendation:* _The Dead Don't Hurt,_ starring Viggo Mortensen. It came out around Memorial DAy this year. Pretty slow-moving, but I thought it was gritty and realistic, holding fast to western tropes.
Finally someone including Nobody on a list like this.
Really not a fan of Kevin Costner, but recently stumbled across "open range" and absolutely loved it - I think for every cliche it offered something a bit different. Also Absolutely love The Proposition!
Great list, couple on there I need to check out.
Grew up with Grizzly Adams & Little house on the prairie - love those for not being fun toting tropes. But best series I've seen of late is "Godless".
Godless was great. I am an old fan of westerns and i enjoyed it thoroughly. I never missed an episode of Grizzly Adams.
Great choices! Just watched Silverado again the other day. Totally agree it is a gem!
How can I send a PM to you?
Very good list, though I would definitely put Dead Man in there somewhere.
Wow. 2 of my favourite westerns. Open range and Silverado. Absolutely on my top 10.
Old Henry is fantastic! Open Range is one of my favs...as is The Assassination of Jesse James. check out News of the World...and Kevin Costner's Wyatt Earp. i like much more than Tombstone.
Most of them films I have heard people mention at one time of another but Hang Em High would get my vote.

I can't believe these were on the afterthought list.
Most of these are on my top westerns list.
Maybe it's my age.
I think that's part of it. A bunch of these are EXTREMELY well-known and are fondly remembered as classics by many.
As far as Tv westerners go I loved Paradise the 1988-1990 series starring Lee Horsley and Sigrid Thorton.
That show is really good and the intro is LEGENDARY.
Never heard of that one. Is it set in Australia? I figured if it stars Sigrid Thornton, it must be Aussie.
@@matthalpin1981 American setting, you'll find the entire seasons on youtube if you search for Guns of Paradise.
@@matthalpin1981
I believe it was a a US production. I had a major crush on Sigrid!
Fine list. One not included is called Posse, starring Bruce Dern and Kirk Douglas. It's a wonderful morality play. Virtually impossible to find, though.
lonesome dove: the outlaw years was an incredible gritty show. to see newt call transformed into a dangerous outlaw is really something. 15 years ahead of its time in my opinion. good luck finding it though.
Oldman Hendy was the best movie of that year. Absolute fabulous !
The Proposition is one of my favorite films of the past 20 years
It has aged really well as well
great film - as is sweet country
It's one of the top ten films of the 21st century, maybe top 5.
@@TheGreatestVoice1958 It would definitely be in my top 5
@@staggerlee7301 It’s phenomenal. The acting by the entire ensemble is extraordinary. I hope Hillcoat brings this same A-game to Blood Meridian and reunited with Guy Pearce
I really enjoyed the Magnificent Seven as TV series. It's one of my comfort shows to watch 🙂
I have the dvd set
Watched them all they’re all brilliant
Well add them to my list haha, great video, for shows, I really enjoyed, Wild Wild West at 5, Hell on Wheels as a 4, Bonanza as a 3, Little house on the prairie if you count it as a western as 2, and Deadwood as my favorite Western show, but I need to see the rifleman and lonesome dove before I can know for sure haha
Quiggley my favorite ❤should be here...Silverado #1 absolutely 💯
Lonesome Dove was fantastic by I think the short series Hell on Wheels, Deadwood (the follow up movie included) were just the best westerns modern day had to offer.
👍🏻Hell on Wheels Series & Billy The Kid Series👌
the assasination of jesse james a master peice and arguably my favourite western film with its realistic feal and its real story its based on its a masterpiece
I’d also add Lee Van Cleef’s Sabata. Really like that film
Appaloosa is one of the most under-the-radar westerns.
Although Gunsmoke is (to my knowledge) the longest running live action TV show in the US and seemed to be popular during its day. It is still totally underrated! Everything about this production is A+ (especially the first 10 seasons or so). Writing, Directon, Cinematography, Costumes, Music (Bernard Hermann, Jerry Goldsmith, etc.) It also features some of the greatest character actors of all time!

If aspiring filmakers want to learn how to do it right on every level you can start and end here. In the history of all TV, some may come close but nothing beats it.
The missing from 2003 is underrated in my opinion.
One's I'd recommend are hombre 1967 the last hard men 1976 ride the high country 1962 and bite the bullet 1975
My Name is Nobody may be my favorite western of all time.
I was surprized Bone Tomahawk wasn't on the list.
The Gunfighter and The Big Country would be a good addition.
Late to the game but I always loved the TV series Alias Smith & Jones.
Another very underrated western was Ride with the Devil.
The Assassination of Jesse James truly is a masterpiece.
I would recommend "Dead Man" by Jim Jarmusch starring Johnny Depp and "Barbarosa" starring Willie Nelson & Gary Busey. Both very underrated.
SERAPHIM FALLS is an AMAZING tale of magnanimous quality !!
Absolutely Joe Kidd, one of my very favorites.
Old Henry is brilliant 👍
Can’t argue with Silverado at 1.
A hidden gem western tv series was 'Wild Boys'. Terrible name but a great show which lasted only one season and was set in the Australian 1880s.
The most underrated western gem is without a doubt they call me Trinity number 2 is Frank and Jessie lots of big actors but nobody ever talks of it
"They call me Trinity" may not have been a hit in the US But all over Europe it was HUGE, Bigger than any American western at the time. Same goes for the sequel "They Still call me Trinity".
@@BluesmanDizzy i figured it was seeing how they made so many crappy sequels not the my name is still Trinity one but the Trinity sees red revenge of Trinity ECT the fight before Christmas was really good but idk if it was considered a Trinity movie or not

"Valdez Is Coming" - 1971 is a western with the most unusual ending.
And "The Professionals" - 1966 about a rescue attempt with Burt Lancaster, Lee Marvin, Woody Strode, Jack Palance, Robert Ryan and the beautiful Claudia Cardinale.
Underrated western TV shows:
Alias Smith and Jones
Dick Powell's Zane Grey Theater
Most underrated TV Western? That's easy.
Firefly.
Yeah, there's spaceships and sci-fi trappings. But there's also a cagey, misunderstood outlaw, a hooker with a heart of gold, a loyal gan....ummm, crew. It's of a piece with Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. Oh, speaking of underrated Western TV....
open range is not a hidden gem it is one of the best westerns ever
The quick and the dead with Sam Elliott is the gem
I enjoyed all those film with one expection Assasination of Jesse James due to not watching it yet.
A few more gems are both versions of Monte Walsh, Cross Fire Trail, and Broken Trail. Conager and The Quick and the Dead, Sam Elliott version.
In America the most underratd or better unknown Western is the Austrian-German Film "Das finstere Tal" or "The Dark Valley" as it is named internationally! A fantastic Movie set in Austria (NOT Australia!) but has the style of a true Western! A mysterious man arrives in a village deep in the Austrian Alps to have revenge upon the family that rules the whole valley. The setting is phenomenal but unfamiliar to a western what gives this movie its outstanding uniqueness! An absolute MUST WATCH for Western Fans...
The Man From Snowy River!
"The Hired Hand", with Peter Fonda, and "Comes a Horseman", with Jane Fonda, James Caan and Jason Robards. Nothing really creative or great about them - except the performances, the spectacular scenery and cinematography of Comes a Horseman -, but I love these movies. (off topic commentary: I never saw Jeremiah Johnson cited in any of your videos. It's my pick for the greatest western movie ever...)

Lonesome dove and return to lonesome dove where my go to western series growing up.
Great list…Clint Eastwood should have directed Joe Kidd with nooooo bowler hat as it was a show wrecker from the get go…The Harder They Fall was a great western..,The Quick and the Dead was all eye candy with hardly any script..Old Henry was one of the best on the list with the classic My Name is Nobody..
Billy the kid is so good bro, its a MGM show PLEASE add it to the list.
For the underrated TV series, I vote for "Deadman's Gun."
I quite enjoyed the series called The Son, with Pierce Brosnan.
Open Range is simply great in every category of film making with acting and limited action at the top.
Try Hombre, Ulzana's Raid, The Long Riders, The Furies, The Professionals, Yellow Sky, The Gunfighter, Heartland, Hell's Heroes and Three Godfathers (1936 - aka, The Miracle In The Sand - same story but much better than the John Ford movie).
Hombre, and Tom Horn, along with Jeremiah Johnson should be on this list...
The Assassination of Jesse James is the equivalent to Blade Runner. It changed the genere forever but never got the recognition’s really deserves.
Silverado - Epic
I feel like there's a bit of a disconnect here when it comes to what "hidden" means culturally. Several of these films are immensely popular amongst Western fans and even general audiences and have been for decades, in spite of whatever the audience who voted for them seem to think. Silverado and The Quick and The Dead both come immediately to mind. I have a feeling, and I could be wrong, that a huge number of the the suggestions and recommendations for this particular entry came from people under like 40. Great list, mind you.

Slow West. No one mentioning this? Unbelievable!
Agreed...excellent flick!
If you haven’t watched old Henry don’t read any spoilers just watch it and thank me later. Once you see the end you’ll have to pick your jaw up. My grandfather and I loved every minute of it ESPECIALLY THE END.
I will probable be the only person to mention this film, but I really thought the movie " Alone Yet Not Alone " (2013) was a refreshingly good movie, and one of a few Christian movies (and only Western) to get my attention as being far above par. Low budget but outperforms in most categories.
P.S. I enjoyed your previous list in the first video... three of them were good watches for me that I had not seen before.
Joe Kidd
The Homesman
Old Henry
The Quick And The Dead
Open Range
Seraphim Falls
All good choices, but I was hoping someone would have considered Missouri Breaks in the "Hidden Gems."
Old henry was really good.
I'm surprised about the absence of "Blackthorn"! The Manhunt through the Uyuni Salt Flats is magnificent because of the setting in Bolivia. As i mention Bolivia you can simply guess that the man with the name Blackthorn is a surviving Butch Cassidy. Great Movie...
And where is "Wind River"? Imho the best contemporary Western. Or was it not so hidden in the US? But if you got Silverado in the list, Wind River is defnitely more a hidden gem...
Well seeing as how you asked for western series, Lonesome Dove, and Deadwood are the best, I think.
TV Westerns; The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. 1993
Open range a underrated? One of best modern westerns made.
Old henry takes place in my state Oklahoma
The Proposition is one of the best Westerns of all time. Just is.
Whispering Smith underrated tv show
I'll have to watch all these now. I shouldn't watch anymore of you're suggests 😅
Cimmaron Strip / Stuart Whitman
Old Henry the best since Unforgiven
Really a fan of Open Range. It's has slow start to take in the grandeur of West which was probably off putting for some. But I enjoyed that aspect immensely . But the missing element, where the film really finds its stride, is when Annette Bening makes her appearance. You wouldn't think that the romantic element mattered. But it does.

"Open Range", a western with heart, a great story and amazing chemistry between Boss (Duvall) and Charlie (Costner).
