The attack by the Indians was gruesome but Lily getting her revenge for Robert killer was impressive considering she was shot and Cullen only just finding out how his wife died but before he found out who did it Elam cut his throat for killing another worker Author: bala Time: 11-10-2011 09:43 Subject: Reply 3#3 codebreaker's post
i couldn't pay enough attention to the episode Author: codebreaker Time: 11-10-2011 10:24 Subject: Reply 4#4 bala's post
It did start of slow but i enjoyed the second half Author: codebreaker Time: 11-19-2011 14:13 Subject: 1x02 Immoral Mathematics
Cullen was lucky to break free from The Swede freight car jail and Lily stitching her wound with a makeshift needle and thread was impressive but she was lucky she finished before she fainted from the pain Author: codebreaker Time: 11-21-2011 03:56

Cullen coming across Lily on his search for the sergeant turned out to be a good thing for her when he let her go knowing there is a bounty on her head Author: codebreaker Time: 11-27-2011 22:54

That was an impressive shot but shame about the horse and Lily must know Durant has a hidden agenda while assisting in her recuperation, i would imagine the black powder explosion was a cover for the missing barrels Author: codebreaker Time: 12-9-2011 03:22 Subject: 1x05 Bread and Circuses
Lily has a tough decision to make about keeping the maps hidden and her husband dying without been know for getting the railroad through the mountain but i wouldn't trust Durant to honer his name if she gives him the maps but she might get the money he is owed and the way the Reverend treated his daughter when she arrived was strange Author: codebreaker Time: 12-15-2011 13:03 Subject: 1x06 Pride, Pomp and Circumstance
The Indian Chief wanting to race his horse against the train was amusing and I'm not surprise Lily was upset when one of the Indian ladies was wearing her husband's hat but i was surprised she gave Durant the maps Author: codebreaker Time: 12-20-2011 15:31 Subject: 1x07 Revelations
That was brave and stupid taking shovels to a gunfight and Elam was lucky when they tried to hang him thanks to Cullen but what he did and said to the Irishman who tried to hang him was awesome, Lily standing up for herself when the ladies were slagging her off was great Author: codebreaker Time: 1-3-2012 04:05 Subject: 1x08 Derailed
The Swede getting a taste of his own punishment after trying to hang Elam for sleeping with a white hooker was great and that Lieutenant Griggs was a piece of work bragging about killing so many when he actually arrived after the battle but shooting the kid was uncalled for Author: codebreaker Time: 1-8-2012 02:21
This has now been added to the Flash site Author: codebreaker Time: 1-8-2012 14:19 Subject: AMC's Hell On Wheels Renewed for Second Season
AMC’s newest period series, the period Western ‘Hell On Wheels,’ has been renewed for a second season, Deadline is reporting. The show’s renewal marks the fifth out of the six original scripted series aired by the cable network to be renewed for a sophomore season. ‘Hell On Wheels,’ which was developed by Endemol USA and produced by Entertainment One and Nomadic Pictures, debuted with 4.4 million viewers in November. While ‘Hell On Wheels’ is AMC’s second-highest-rated series premiere, behind ‘The Walking Dead,’ in total viewers and in the 18-49 and 25-54 demographics, the western has slipped during its season. But it continuously draws in more than two million viewers in
Lily doing the surveying to help the railroad meet the deadline was a surprise and managing to reach the 40 mile target was impressive but Elam taking the scalps of the Indians that killed Lily's husband was sick but not as bad as what the Reverend did Author: codebreaker Time: 1-18-2012 03:21 Subject: 1x10 God of Chaos
The Swede getting tarred and feathered looked painful but amusing and it looks like Cullen might of killed the wrong man for the rape and murder of his wife Author: codebreaker Time: 7-17-2012 14:35

Durant dispatching Elam to deal with a posse robbing his payroll was interesting considering Cullen was one of them as he was adjusting to life after hell on wheels and Lily making sure the whore had a proper burial was nice Author: codebreaker Time: 8-20-2012 13:19

Eva was lucky when the Indians burnt down her village but her returning to hell on wheels was a blessing in disguise with her asking Lily to do something about the person who killed the whore and Elam eventually taking the job was interesting as he has felling for Eva Author: codebreaker Time: 8-27-2012 21:55
That's disturbing feeding the pigs their own internal organs but as they said nothings wasted and what a moron bragging about killing a man that was killed by Elam for Lily but if the Swede hadn't been stirring things up the butcher would still be alive but feeding him to the pigs was ironic Author: codebreaker Time: 9-9-2012 11:30 Subject: 2x04 Scabs
I know Cullen was asked to do something about the man being tortured by the Indians and killing him was probable not what they expected but from that distance it was the only thing he could do, the way Cullen stopped the strike was was crafty and Eva's husband coming back knowing she's pregnant from another man was a surprise Author: codebreaker Time: 9-10-2012 14:06

How stupid of the robber to have a run in with Ferguson and bring attention to them selves and to make things worse for them they knew Bohannon was also there but the Doc had the right idea to stay away, Durant was lucky to survive the gun shot Author: codebreaker Time: 9-23-2012 09:27 Subject: 2x06 Purged Away With Blood
So glad the Reverend trading guns with the Indians came back and bit him in the ass and the Doc willing to risk his own life to save Durant made a nice change but The Swede calling the Cavalry on the Doc is bound to put Bohannon on his trail especially after he was asked to execute him Author: codebreaker Time: 9-23-2012 09:28

After what happened to Durant I'm not surprised Lily and Cullen were struggling to maintain order and it didn't take Cullen long to figure out The Swede had something to do with the guns sold to the Indians Author: codebreaker Time: 10-8-2012 14:11
Author: codebreaker Time: 10-8-2012 14:48 Subject: 2x08 The Lord's Day
Durant,s wife returning with him is going to make things interesting especially with her knowing about Lily and her husband and it also looks like she might have an eye on Cullen who is now seeing Lily, rushing the bridge building was disastrous Author: codebreaker Time: 10-8-2012 14:49
Cullen was brave taking the engine across the bridge considering it collapsed on construction and I thought Eva's husband was going to kill Elam not himself but if that didn't cause Eva to loose the baby I wouldn't be surprised Author: codebreaker Time: 10-9-2012 02:33 Subject: 2x10 Blood Moon Rising
It's a good job Lily took precaution against Durant and her side deal with Elam when he was sent to kill her was impressive but The Swede being the one to kill her and jumping before the rope was tied was lousy end to the season Author: bala Time: 10-20-2012 11:21

Yes i couldn't believe risk going town to rob the payroll at least on train they could escape but in a town they really had no escape but the fact 2 guys take down whole crew was amusing.

Who would after all she been through she killed like that . Elam wooden cabin get burnt to the ground was rather sad as well. It was rather disappoint clifhanger with Durant walking off like he did in first season final ?. Author: codebreaker Time: 8-2-2013 22:58

Cullen managing to secure his positions on the rail-road while in New York was impressive and I can't believe they went to the trouble to send a telegram to Elam to say he's a father without telling him the sex of his child and from the look of the baby he might not be the father Author: codebreaker Time: 8-12-2013 09:29 Subject: 3x02 Eminent Domain
I cant believe Cullen abused the families trust be making out with one of the women but at leased he tried to save their farm and I cant believe he let his son take the fall for killing the sheriff, I'm sure the reporter will make things interesting Author: codebreaker Time: 8-14-2013 05:42

The last cattle rustler standing should of known better trying to run as he was warned but the fact the tried to make it look like Indians made it more interesting and the stranger's arrival threatening Elam's family saying his brother was the babies father isn't going to end well Author: codebreaker Time: 8-25-2013 06:25

Durant telling Louise about Cullen's past was predictable and it was obvious the babies uncle would take the baby sooner or later Author: codebreaker Time: 9-1-2013 04:45 Subject: 3x05 Searchers
Durant offering a reward for the babies return was a nice idea but it was obvious he had an ulterior motive and I was wrong about who took the baby Author: codebreaker Time: 9-1-2013 12:43
Author: codebreaker Time: 9-8-2013 00:39 Subject: 3x06 One Less Mule
What the Swede did in the river was diabolical especially as the boy was watching and what a dumb idiot telling Cullen he was there to kill him after he killed his brother especially as he was holding a gun to his head Author: codebreaker Time: 9-8-2013 12:39
Durant refusing to supply Cullen with fresh water before his workers die was the sort dirty low down trick you would expect from him but finding their own was great and Durant killing the man and giving Sean the gun was evil but using the cholera epidemic to burn the body with the others was clever Author: codebreaker Time: 9-22-2013 01:42 Subject: 3x08 It Happened In Boston
It was obvious the senator was going to be missed after Durant killed him and you can understand why Sean was worried as he was the last one to hold the gun that killed him but being shot in the back by Mickey to save his own ass was sad, Elam going off the rails after Eva gave the baby away was understandable Author: codebreaker Time: 9-29-2013 16:47

Considering Elam was drunk that was an impressive escape from the hotel but taking the boy as leverage was a little predictable Author: codebreaker Time: 10-7-2013 12:50 Subject: 3x10 Get Behind the Mule
Durant taking advantage of Cullen's misfortune by taking control of the rail-road construction was a little predictable and who would of thought Elam mounting a rescue attempt would have such a savage end but Cullen marrying the girl to save his neck was amusing Author: codebreaker Time: 8-2-2014 21:50
