Please tell me if The Son is going to get multiple excellent ratings. I'm really tired to seeing Pierce's name and image attached to poorly rated works as well as his works being under radar. This man deserves his third career (first and second being Steele and Bond, respectively).

This man deserves his third career (first and second being Steele and Bond, respectively). AMC has a huge following. Even tho these reviews weren't great, they weren't that bad, either. In my opinion, critics get paid to criticize. I have a feeling that the general public will respond better to the series than the critics. And unlike a movie where you have to pay to go see it, this is included in a subscription that many already have. So there is already a built in audience to tune into it without laying out any extra cash. The twitterverse seems to be eagerly anticipating this show.

I just HAVE HAD ENOUGH of seeing Pierce being put down, particularly with that disgusting Pan Bahar commercial. He deserves better a career better than his Bond career had given him as well as an audience beyond his fanbase, especially after Bond. Like Sean, I see Pierce as a classic type, and a classic deserves a classic.

movies.blog.austin360.com/2017/03/13/get-ready-the-son-might-be-the-next-great-texas-tv-series/Get ready: ‘The Son’ might be the next great Texas TV series Charles Ealy March 13, 2017 “The Son,” a new series based on the 2013 novel by Austin’s Philipp Meyer, premieres April 8 on AMC, and if you were a fan of the epic Texas novel about the McCullough family, then you’ll be a fan of the new show, too. Pierce Brosnan plays the family patriarch, Eli McCullough, who was kidnapped by the Comanches, only to thrive with them and go on to found a Texas empire after leaving. He’s an archetype, of course, but what a complex character, whom Brosnan fully captures in the first two episodes of the new season, which premiered at South by Southwest. The episodes go back and forth in time, with the initial attack on a Texas homestead, where the young Eli, played by Jacob Lofland, is kidnapped by the Comanches. He endures a lot of pain and suffering, but the first two episodes give you an inkling that he might be a survivor, and a “thriver,” rather than a victim. The patriarch version of Eli is no less interesting. In the first couple of episodes, we see a hard businessman realizing that the age of cattle is waning and that the age of oil is on the horizon. But there’s also much more going on. The episodes explore then tensions between the Anglos and the early Tejanos, who resent the arrival of the whites as much as the Indians did. There are attacks on the McCullough ranch, and you realize fairly quickly that McCullough isn’t one to respond nicely to attacks. There’s tension in the McCullough family, however. One of Eli’s sons, Pete, played by Henry Garrett, thinks negotiations might work. He has a wife and daughter, and he seems like a more modern version of his ruthless father. But guess what? Circumstances will test his mettle. What’s so great about the series? It captures the essence of the novel, with an inventive switching of time periods, between young and old Eli, while paying respects and giving voice to all of those who resent the rise of the McCullough dynasty. And you might want to watch out for a star in the making: Garrett, who plays Pete. He’s a Method actor, and he knows what he’s doing. Also, Lofland, who plays the young Eli, played Neckbone in Jeff Nichols’ “Mud,” and you’ll see why he’s one of the hottest young talents these days. Meyer, a former Michener fellow at the University of Texas, has been intimately involved with the development of the series, and showrunner Kevin Murphy and he seem to have developed a creative and intellectually hospitable relationship. The first 10 episodes are done. And Brosnan says he’s up for more, if AMC is willing. That looks likely, based on the first two episodes. But Brosnan says there’s one stipulation: He doesn’t want to film the Texas-shot series again in 105-degree weather during the summer. Meyer and Murphy say that’s a deal.

boomhowdy.com/boomnews/sxsw2017/amc-son/SXSW Review: Pierce Brosnan Returns to Television in AMC’s “The Son” Ben FordBEN FORDMARCH 14, 2017 After a 30 year absence, Pierce Brosnan marks his return to television in the only possible way, with a series of gunshots, chases, and a dynamite fueled explosion. The twist? The shots ring out from single-action six shooters and early model 1911’s, and the chases are performed on horseback. At SXSW 2017, AMC premiered their new western drama, The Son. With Brosnan starring as morally ambiguous cattle baron Eli McCullough, The Son is described as “A multi-generational epic telling of the story of America’s birth as a superpower through the bloody rise and fall of one Texas oil empire.“ Based on the novel of the same name written by Philipp Meyer, The Son divides its screen time between a young Eli McCullough (played by Jacob Lofland), captured by Apaches after witnessing the murder of his family in 1849, and Brosnan’s McCullough 60 years later, now a merciless cattle baron. Conflicts include those between Eli and a group of Mexicans hellbent on reclaiming his land, of which they believe is rightfully theirs, and conflict within, between Eli and his son Pete McCullough (Henry Garrett) regarding how best to handle the ranch’s enemies and who’s the man that truly runs it. The Son‘s first two episodes plays through the necessary roll call of plot & characters without breaking new ground, but now that that box is checked the show does indeed look very promising. Brosnan’s attachment to the project “at the 11th hour” as he described at a post-screening Q&A is all but unnoticeable (Actor Sam Neill was originally attached, but left for cited “personal reasons”), and we’re expecting a solid performance as he delves deeper and darker into his character. We’ll find out more about that character on the series premiere Saturday April 8th at 9/8 CST on AMC.
