i dont understand why the rating is low. honestly, this was a great show and i enjoyed it a lot. everything ended satisfying, although not happy. the characters were compelling, it stayed really interesting all the way through and i really loved the realistic portray of what went down between the whites, mexicans and the comanche. a must watch!

The show was decent. Characters were not that good. The only relatable characters were Jeanie and Phineas. It was short and fun.

"The Son" (2017 is not created by Philippe Meyer. It is created by Philipp Meyer (no 'e' in Philipp), and thus his Trakt page, plus underlying sources are messed up. Philippe Meyer (with an 'e') is a German/French journalist and writer among other things. Further confusing things, the Wikipedia lead to "creator" of "The Son" links to a completely separate Philippe Meyer (also with an'e') who is a Swiss former olympic swimmer, with zero film or media credits. There is a Trakt (sorta) correct page for Philipp Meyer, crediting him for authorship of the novel, "American Rust" (2021). However the other Philippe Meyer page (with 'e') conflates all the wrong Phillippe(s).
