I'd bet my money on that as well
I've been following Longmire since s1ep1. What a great show indeed. I really like Walt's character. Stubborn & grumpy , but likeable old school sheriff dealing with modern day crime in western setting. Yet the series so much more than a cop series with a twist. Longmire is heavily character driven show and there is huge backstory that goes on throughout the seasons.
You've convinced me to move this one up in the order of my Netflix queue. I started watching The Killing but it is not shaping up the way I had hoped so it may be put on a permanent hiatus. I'm surprised with The Killing being a Netflix original it is free of the usual non-network series staples (i.e. gratuitous sex, profanity and brutal violence a la Game of Thrones, True Detective or The Bridge). But I'm afraid with its subject matter that is a requirement for me.
While Longmire may not have those qualities either, it is at least a different take on the crime drama.
Speaking of The Bridge, how long can they continue to milk this whole deal of Marco & Sonya collaborating on every case? Yet I doubt the show would stand up were they no longer doing so. I have enjoyed season two, but wonder how much a future there is for this show.
