Kevin Costner's The West [new] (9 and 10 pm, two
episodes, History Channel)
From Executive Producers Kevin Costner and Doris Kearns Goodwin, KEVIN COSTNER'S THE WEST provides a fresh look at the epic history of the
American West by delving into the desperate struggle for the land itself
and how it still shapes the America we know today. This new,
eight-part series takes viewers on a journey through the birth of the
American West, examining the relentless competition for land, power, and identity that forged our nation’s history. With legends born from
figures such as Lewis and Clark and Sacagawea, to the clashes between
lawmen and outlaws, the rise of cowboys and ranchers, the resilience of trailblazing women, and the fervor of fortune seekers and abolitionists,
this series spans a century of pivotal events. By presenting these
stories from diverse perspectives, the series illuminates both the
indelible contributions of the pioneers who shaped the dream of the
American West and the courageous resistance of Native American tribes
who valiantly defended their ancestral land.
Episode three airs on Tuesday at 8 pm. The remaining five episodes air
on Monday at 9 pm from June 2-30.
