starts on Wednesday. Really hope this lives up to the hype and does a good job of telling the story accurately while being entertaining.

Really looking forward to this. And just FYI, it's airing on the Paramount Network, which is formerly Spike as of last week.

This looks really good... between this and the news about Yellowstone, gotta say things are looking impressive for the Paramount Network.

False flag. FBI burned that sh*t to the ground.

Like the Israeli/LBJ bombing of the USS Liberty, and the CIA/mafia assassinations of JFK and RFK, the murders of Waco are an outrageous example of Deep State malevolence.

Do I have this network? Did it change names? Need to look it up.

My original post. First reply. The Paramount Network is formerly Spike, which I'm pretty sure was part of most standard cable packages.

~sigh!~

Lost for words.

The Messiah? More like, the Anti-Christ.

This is why part of being a believer is admitting to having sinned; being born a sinner and repenting of sins.

And people blindly followed him.

Thanks, I figured it had to be something fairly obvious, with the Paramount name attached.

Really enjoyed the premiere, think I'll stick around for this mini series
CNN is an enemy of the state and should be treated as such.

Really liked it as well. Taylor Kitsch is really really good as Koresh.

I'm not sure if this is the place to debate accuracy but there are some things that don't line up with what I've seen and read on the subject. But I'll leave that alone for now.

Enjoyed it and looks to be a solid watch.

I won't go over my friend that died in the raid and what his friends told me, but so far it seems to line up very well. Certainly enjoyable so far, though I never expect accuracy from a movie- but again, so far, pretty close.

Looks more like the damn panhandle! When is Hollywood going to figure out that all of Texas doesn't look like the damn panhandle!

WTF! This is another thing pissing me off all these shows about Texas getting filmed in New Mexico

I agree with the rope in principal, but I've been to the site and the show wasn't WAY off visually.

I really enjoyed it. Michael Shannon will always be George Mueller so his character makes sense. I thought Kitsch was really good as Koresh. You could see why people would follow him.

I love Paul Sparks. I feel like he is on the verge of being heavy hitter.

Any time there is a Culkin Im also intrigued.

Also I can't wait to see more of Leguizamo. He's great in pretty much everything he does.

New Mexico voters apparently approve of their state government giving huge tax subsidies and incentives to TV and film productions. It's the reason Breaking Bad ended up being set there.

I enjoyed the first episode and I'm really looking forward to the rest of the series.
It'd be cool if they would've filmed it in Texas but I'm with the poster above, that's pretty much what the landscape looks like out there.

Really enjoyed the first episode. Really wish I could watch all 6 episodes now. Netflix has ruined me

I really enjoyed this, I just had a hard time not hearing Tim Riggins every time Koresh talked.

No, the answer is a simple no.

I'm happy that they included Ruby Ridge. You don't get Waco without it. Also if you're ever ok with someone having sex with your wife, you might be in a cult.

Well he did take on the "burden of sex" for the whole community.

Yeah, same deal for Hell or High Water.

The depiction of Ruby Ridge was BS. They made it seem like a random shot from the FBI sniper killed the mother inside the house. She was outside the house when he executed her.
