Review of Billy the Kid

Billy the Kid (2022– )
9/10
Well done
12 October 2023
My husband turned on the TV and asked me to watch a new western series with him. I rolled my eyes. I am not a fan of westerns but this was extremely well done. I also am not a fan of writers who play with real-life facts. For example, Billy's brother, Joe, didn't die of tuberculosis. He was a gambler who lived to be 73 years old.

Putting that aside, the series is well acted. Slow at first but they did this to develop Billy's character. Both Tom Blythe, as adult Billy, and Jonah Collier, as young Billy are extremely convincing. I always am drawn to actors and actresses who use their eyes and facial expressions and don't just recite their lines.

Check it out.
