Joe Pickett is my choice for best Neo-western. I am a big Yellowstone fan, but I have never felt like the characters capture the essence of the old western protagonist. Unlike Yellowstone, Joe Pickett has the same great character qualities of characters like Ben Cartwright and Marshall Dillon. I like that Joe is a underestimated hero throughout the show. I also love his smart and level headed wife, Mary Beth. They make a lovable couple and team. I like that they both grew up in bad situations and the show often shows them overcoming past trauma. I like that Joe is clearly the good guy of this story and I really rooted for him the whole time. The only complaint I have is the CGI elk. Why do they look like that?
