I think this is your first time really getting a dose of the Chinese experience in a western. Chinese immigrants were a significant part of the old west landscape. Many Chinese immigrated to America and helped build the railroads from the west coast that would eventually find and connect with the railroads being built by Irish immigrants starting out from the east coast. The connecting of these railroads helped connect and unify the nation. Stereotypically Chinese in the old west were known for the occupations of building the railroads, Chinese laundry, and Opium Dens. Opium dens were Chinese operated business where people could lay and smoke opium in a safe environment. I think this is really your first time seeing this Chinese experience in a western Dawn, simply because classic Hollywood of so many decades ago didn’t really bother seeking out Chinese faces to cast in the western movies of the day. You would have seen many more Chinese faces in the real old west than you necessarily see in so many Hollywood western classics. There was a great TV show back in the 70s called “Kung Fu” A fascinating and unique take on the western. It was about a Shaolin monk from China who gets mixed up in some ugly business when his master is murdered. He is forced to flee China and immigrates to America in the 1870s old west. Back then TV was very formulaic and episodic. Every episode would consist of the Shaolin martial arts monk Caine wandering the old west looking for his half brother in America. As the show goes though, Caine wanders from town to town, meeting new friends and enemies, and getting mixed up in adventures. The show was extremely popular and is still very loved to this day. …. A remarkable thing about you Dawn is your unique exploration of the western genre. You’ve really dedicated yourself to doing things proper and watching the many classics that defined the genre. This is in contrast to every other movie reaction channel that just watch “Tombstone” and “Unforgiven”, both from the 90s, then never bother watching any other western again. You haven’t even touched any modern western yet Dawn, which in itself is extraordinarily! An essential MUST SEE classic western you got to check out “Once Upon A Time in the West” (1968) This is directed by Sergio Leone, the director of the Dollars trilogy. And it stars Charles Bronson. But when you are ready to move into the modern era of westerns, the place to begin is “Young Guns” (1988) Based on a true story, this is the film that brought the western genre back after it had been dead for many years. There would be many classic westerns from the modern era of westerns that were only ever even made because of the massive success of “Young Guns”

Bullock's brother was killed and common at the time the brother would take over their obligations in terms of family. He set out to deadwood to get established and now that things are working for him, he's ready to send for his brother's wife and son to join him there.

Al and Wu's conversations in Ep 10 were one of my favorite bits of the show.

The TV series “Hell on Wheels” is another excellent portrayal of the Chinese experience in the American West.

Yeah I think I only caught a couple random episodes of Hell on Wheels. Seemed like an exciting show. You know Hollywood’s all out of ideas and just obsessed with remakes now. I actually wouldn’t mind if someone good attempted an epic movie based on the Kung Fu series. Emphasis on “someone good”
