TV show description:
Set in Big Sky country, this thriller TV show is based on the Walt Longmire Mystery novels by best-selling author Craig Johnson.
Walt Longmire (Robert Taylor) is the charismatic, dedicated and unflappable sheriff of Absaroka County, Wyoming. Recently widowed, Longmire is a man who buries his pain behind a brave face and dry wit. He’s known for his manners, strength, and old-fashioned approach. His dedication to the law and his passion for the great West make him a desirable lawman.
Victoria ‘Vic’ Moretti (Katee Sackhoff) is the newest addition to the sheriff’s office. Leaving the homicide division in Philadelphia after five years, Vic is still adjusting to dealing with the locals in her new town. Her playful relationship with Longmire holds a deeper connection that allows her to be his most trusted deputy. Vic is out to prove she isn’t a rookie and to show she is capable and loyal.
Henry Standing Bear (Lou Diamond Phillips) is Walt’s lifelong best friend and a local bar owner. Henry is a handsome and charming Cheyenne who is fiercely protective of his tribe and serves as Walt’s go-between with the reservation. Being a business owner, he is comfortable with progress and modernity while maintaining a connection with his past, unlike his close friend.
Deputy Branch Connally (Bailey Chase) is a go-getter with blind confidence. He has political aspirations that often motivate him more than solving cases. His resentment toward Walt’s outdated approach further inspire him to run for sheriff, especially after feeling that he is picking up his boss’s slack. He wants to bring Absaroka County into the 21st century, and he longs to update the sheriff’s station with the technology that other law enforcement agencies use.
Another deputy, The Ferg (Adam Bartley), is a big guy with the heart of a puppy dog. He is loyal, sweet, well-meaning and eager to please. A gifted fly-fisherman who knows how to hunt and fix things, The Ferg has a long way to go as an investigator. Even though he may not be a perfect fit for the job, he is no coward.
Cady Longmire (Cassidy Freeman) is Walt’s only child and an attorney with dreams of the big city. After the death of her mother, Cady has taken it upon herself to help her father get his life back together. She is keenly aware of his imperfections and is the only one not afraid to point them out. Her straight talk and sense of humor connect this father-daughter duo even though they both tend to drive the other crazy.

What do you think? Are you a fan of the Longmire TV series? Do you think it should have ended or been renewed for a seventh season on Netflix?
this was an excellent show -good story lines and good cast. What a shame that
this was cancelled and garbage like “real housewives of ” is still on the air!
Please return Longmire to those of us who found it to be worthwhile viewing. This series appealed to many age groups. Why cancel something that is entertaining and made sense. Reconsider your decision and put it back on the schedule.
Disney & ABC should be ashamed of themselves 4 letting A&E cancel TVs Longmire . They have the power to bring Longmire back.s
I just submitted a post on A&E’s website asking why they cancelled the show , now I wonder if they will post it or even respond .
I cannot believe you are canceling Longmire….one of the best shows in a long time……shame on you….bring it back……please
How in the world this show was ever cancelled leaves doubts about the sanity of the people at A&E? Just saw the comment on age of the audience? What does that mean? This age group normally has more spendable discretionary funds than the “Other” groups. The story line was fantastic especially the last episode of season 3. How the father was willing to kill his son to carry on the family name the way he thought it should be.
What a total disappointment! This is one the few really great shows on these days. You really got a feel for the interaction with small town law enforcement and the native American reservation challenges. I am considering blocking A&E. If the reason is that the only audience was the the older fan base, who else can afford cable these days.
It is a shame that Longmire has been cancelled , I would love to know how these decisions are arrived at . This show crossed a lot of age lines based on the people that I know , in fact I was turned on to it by my nephew . Maybe if people stopped watching A&E altogether they will smarten up !
It seems to me A & E has forgot what their title means. They are now the home of the reality shows or reruns. Where is the Art in Art and Entertainment when they cancel a program like Longmire?.
Longmire has been one of the best shows put out by a network in years. The season finale was well done and the final scene gave me chills. Quality acting, plots, and characters. This show was gathering loyal viewers and was on the verge of being a ‘got to watch show’. If there are any SMART TV executives they would get this show on the air…..it is money in the bank
Great show. Too bad that it was cancelled due to age of audience !!
Too many shows go away because sponsors don’t like
The age of audience!!
There is not one show as good as Longmire. Shame on whoever made the decision to cancel this series
What ???!! You keep rerunning moronic programs because you want to believe the viewers only want predicable nonsense . I enjoyed the progress of the story from week to week.
Netflix is in negotiations to show Longmire. Cudos if it all works out. Let’s keep our fingers crossed.
Now we have to get “Perception “somewhere else now that TNT canceled it.
Best two shows they had now they have nothing. I am talking about Longmire & The Glades what is wrong with these people?
Please bring back Longmire! Best show on T V!!
Why would one of the best shows on TV be cancelled? It doesn’t make sense. There isn’t much else to watch. This is a really good show
