What to watch after 'American Primeval'

Western shows have been around pretty much since TV was invented, and although the genre has fallen out of vogue on the big screen, they’re currently enjoying something of a golden age on television.
The latest Western to grace our screens is the Netflix miniseries "American Primeval," which premiered Jan. 9. Set in the Utah Territory during the 1850s, the gritty drama is a far cry from the romanticized frontier tales we’ve seen in the past, "American Primeval" stars Taylor Kitsch and Betty Gilpin, and explores the often violent conflict between white settlers — predominantly Mormon — and the indigenous people they’re committed to displacing.
TG's Alix Blackburn already considers "American Primeval" one of her favorite shows of the year. After you finish watching it, you might crave more Western dramas. Here are five shows like "American Primeval" to stream now.

'Deadwood'

Set in a booming mining town in the Dakota Territory during the late 1800s, "Deadwood" is pretty much the gold standard when it comes to Western TV series of the modern era. Somehow, its cast is able to make the petty squabbles of the town’s leading citizens seem like Shakespeare, creating high drama in its finest form.
