Has anybody been watching it? Missed the first part sunday night but caught it and the second part last night. The third part is tonight. It is on the History channel. always heard about the Hatfield's & McCoy's but never knew the story behind the feud. Now I know.
From what I understand ... the "tv movie" took some serious liberties with the "truth" about the whole thing. The book about it is more accurate. (& the real McCoys & Hatfields weren't anywhere close to the "good looks" of the TV actors :Doh:) RoflQuote:

Prolly all they had to drink back than! Unless they wanted to drink river water! Lol
I have them all set to record and watched the first part last night. Was not to bad. The wife even liked it. Will try and catch part two tonight after daughters T ball game.
Figured it would be good for spending 6 hours on a rainy day...If it ever rains again???Quote:

Compared to what else is on TV:rolleyes: I've enjoyed it so far. Looking forwards to part 3 tonite.:)
I have them recorded and look forward to watching them.
watching them now great show for sure
They have been worth watching so far! Will be ready for the final episode tonight! I looked on Historychannel.com today and you can buy trhe whole thing for $29.99.:popcorn
