Godless is a women-led western that focuses on a group of widows who lost their husbands in a mine collapse and must protect their homes. The 7-episode

Is this the show which was named super Feminist only to turn out to have more males talking than female?

And thanks for reminding me to book my yearly riding trip.

I ride so irregularly that my legs can barely handle a two hour trip these days.

“Godless is a women-led western that focuses on a group of widows who lost their husbands in a mine collapse and must protect their homes.”

Literally the only thing accurate about this sentence is that it’s a Western. It is male-led and make-focused. The promise of it being female-focused is why I watched, and why I was disappointed. Get outta here with that bullshit.

Wasn’t going in on you, that is 100% how they advertised it.

I'm too scared to ride a horse.

I loved this so much. It was my favorite series of 2017.

I personally liked the balance of men and women and the perspective it took on women, but I guess it all depends on your expectations. Netflix prob shouldn't have marketed it as all women. People would be assessing it more fairly if they hadn't taken that approach I think

I miss riding horses. I think the last time was about three years ago - but I made it a good one - it was a 4 hour advanced trail riding deal in New Zealand and I felt like Arwen being chased by the Nine. It was excellent.
