    Ahhh..my favourite mad Swede is back and God has now found him. With an axe. And a helpless family.
    Other than that, having the shows moral centre bringing the dead bloke for a drink was a nice touch. Pity it didn't put Colm Meaney off his meal.

    this season has been pretty good actually, its kept its balance between episodic problem of the week and the arc story as well as could be expected for a show that struggled a little, the most confusing thing were the irish brother personality swap, the promo for nexts looks great, its looks like the whole season pays off
    particularly now we see where the swede has ended up, as a religious leader in the moroms fort, fantastic

    Elam in the clutches of a bear. Brother Bohannon in the clutches of The Swede. :D

    Great season finale.

    Played more like a series finale than a season finale. Obviously they didn't know if the show was going to be renewed or not when they shot this episode.
    Hoping for better (and more Swede) in season 4. It is just a matter of time before his history catches up with him (probably in the form of that spur line that we saw the Mormons building).

    Yep, and AMC has not yet ordered a fourth season. It would be a real shame if they'd leave it at that.

    that was far less dramatic then i thought, i thought the boy would be brought into it and swede found out all in this episode :/

    to me that felt like mid season finale...

    As said above - still not renewed so you can't actually blame the writers for leaving doors open while tying shoelaces at the same time.

    This season rebooted the show in a good way. Be a shame to leave it at that.

    i hope if they'res next series that they have a character on the other side of the rockies, they were some criticism and the very start of the show that there was no chinsese labourers but of course they would be coming from the pacific rail side and could be shown next season

    Maybe you should watch episode 8 again, there was your "character on the other side of the rockies" (Mr Huntington) with plenty Chinese servants. Of course Huntington serves no other purpose than to satisfy the PC Gestapo. I mean, who really cares for Chinese labourers in Hell on Wheels?

    a character to follow for the whole season and es those criticism weren't justified because

    Well, he appeared in previous episodes, but seriously, he did serve no other purpose than showing a few Chinese slave workers in his personal entourage only to pacify the political correctness fascists. Which I find rather ridiculous as there were no Chinese workers involved in building the part of the railway which is the setting for Hell on Wheels.

    Working my way through the first season at the moment. Not very consistent but more ups than downs by my count. Quite enjoyable fare!

    I'm just watching the second episode of season 2.

    Cullen is telling Doc that he murdered an innocent man by strangling him.

    It has been ages since I saw season 1 but I don't remember this happening.

    Or is this something from the past that we learn more about later?

    No spoilers please ;)

    He's Norweigan :mad:

    :) I can't believe he didn't get the friendly Mormon to get a wanted posted for the Swede.

    Then again Bohannon isn't the smartest tool in the shed at times.

    I take it back. His tricking of Bishop Swede in episode 2 was great.

    Actually overall that episode was pretty strong. The newly arrived Gov'nor and his crew are not to be messed with.
