    The first episode that has aired isn't a strong one, it's slow and at times dull, but the show does has potential. Many television shows have started out with not so good first episodes, but end up being surprisingly great. Optimistically hoping Texas Rising is one of them.

    Americans love and honor their history. Once again they managed аwesome mini-series! Great acting, interesting events, action, reality. This is not fantasy, but no worse licked all "Game of Thrones"))

    This is one of the most engrossing mini-series I have ever watched. I know some of the history wasn't quite right, but I think they did a really good job getting the personalities of the people onto the screen. LOVED Rob Morrow's portrayal of Fannin! And Deaf Smith! I really didn't know much about him going into the series, but believe me, I've done some research since. One of theThis is one of the most engrossing mini-series I have ever watched.

One of the best and highest functions of TV is that spark that leads you to search for more knowledge. This series did it for me.… Expand

    The action is so saddled with laughable dialogue and dreadful pacing that not even Paxton's always entertaining scene-chewing can make this inherently interesting tale pop as it should. [29 May/5 Jun 2015, p.98]

    The overall plotting is as disjointed as it is clichéd.

    Texas Rising is tonally challenged in a way that regularly undercuts its own inherent drama.
