Quoting Deadman: Quote:
The correct order would be
Dead Man's Walk
Comanche Moon
Lonesome Dove
Streets of Laredo
Their is also Return to Lonesome Dove and The Lonesome Dove tv series, but the creater of LD Larry McMurtry does not endorse these (and has said in interviews they were made only to cash in on the success of the original Lonesome Dove mini-series) Of course you're right about Return and the tv series not being approved/endorsed by Larry McMurtry. But I think even Larry McMurtry can't argue that Streets of Laredo and the two prequels were made with no intent to "cash in" on the original. Having said that, in case anyone is interested the full chronology would be: Dead Man's Walk (aired 1996) Comanche Moon (aired 2008) Lonesome Dove (aired 1990) Return to Lonesome Dove (aired 1993) Lonesome Dove, The Series (aired 1994) Lonesome Dove, The Outlaw Years (aired 1995) Streets of Laredo (aired 1995) I agree that the non-McMurtry efforts pale by comparison to the "official" sequel/prequels. But even those "official" ones weren't as good as the original (at least IMHO). |
