Between Netflix’s slew of new releases and season three of The White Lotus on Max, my watchlist has never been longer. But there’s one more series from Netflix that I just added to my ever-growing list, and if you’re a fan of Virgin River, Friday Night Lights or Yellowstone, you will, too.
It’s rare when a show truly has me hooked from the trailer alone. But with Josh Duhamel playing a rugged cowboy rancher, an intense will-they-won't-they love story and some obvious small-town tension, how can I resist? In case you missed it, Netflix is releasing their own Yellowstone-esque romantic drama, Ransom Canyon, slated to hit the platform in mid-April. Per Netflix, the show "charts the intersecting lives of three ranching families, all set against the rugged expanse of Texas Hill Country." Sound familiar?
Duhamel's character, Staten Kirkland, is the "owner and sole occupant of the sprawling Double K Ranch, reeling from the loss of his wife. Staten leads the charge to resist the outside forces threatening his way of life and the land that he loves," writes Netflix.
