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 His resentment toward Walt’s outdated approach further inspire him to run for sheriff, especially after feeling that he is picking up his boss’s slack.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?
Why on earth would A&E cancel Longmire–have they there minds? It’s one of the few shows I look at on the station, You have very few good shows left, FOR HEAVEN SAKE RENEW LONGMIRE. tHE SHOW HAS AN EXCELLENT STORY LINE, GREAT CASR MEMBERS AND IT HAS A CONCISE STORY LINE. IF ANYTHING SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE AIR IT SHOULD BE DUCK DYNASTY. DON’T TOUCH LONGMIRE IT’S ONE OF THE REASONS I WATCH THE STATION. BRING THE SHOW BACK. PLEASE I HAVE MY OLDER BROTHER WATCHING THE SHOW AND HE’S HOOKED.
This is awful, such a good program being cancelled. It is a show with feeling & love. That I would let my grandsons watch, Longmire has direction without the violence most shows nowadays. Each show leaves with answers & askes other questions to encourage us to retune each week. I will greatly miss the wonderful show w/exceptional actors.
I will no longer watch A&E. Greedily they want nothing but reality TV, which is obviously cheap to produce. Good bye A&E!
A & E what a mistake .Longmire is great T V show. Don’t let another channel steal tis how from you.
Hate this decision hopefully another network will make a better decision and pick it up! Why??????
Because it’s all about the money. “Reality” shows supposedly are cheap to make. Thus, quality gets tossed in the garbage heap. I’m sick, very upset and angry about this decision. AMC or someone at a network with a brain ought to snatch this show up. I hope A&E NEVER has another hit. I will NEVER watch another thing on that network. If they would have promoted Longmire like they did their other sh*t — like Big Smo, Cement Heads (what?), and the new tattoo show — this might not have happened. Quality TV has no place in today’s wasteland of… Read more »
Warner Brothers I believe is the actual owner of the program… please write them to support efforts to sell to another network
I was updating our Shaw cable tv programing and the update did not include A&E well my husband flipped as that is the only tv show he likes Longmire. I was actually checking out the site to see if he could watch it on his tablet. Was I relieved to see it was cancelled. Don’t get me wrong I really like the show myself so I hope another channel picks it up one we will have on our cable I also agree with everyone way too many reality shows . I guess we will just have to wait and see… Read more »
What kind of IDIOTS do they have running the A & E Network. First they cancelled The Glades & now they have cancelled Longmire. I am really hoping the people start boycotting this channel. I will never watch another show on A & E.
Whose bright idea was this, they finally get some good TV, then they cancel it and leave the really stupid reality shows. Guess I’ll be watching a different channel. Who could we write to and complain?
Why is it every time we find a great show to watch you cancel it and put something stupid in its place. Someone please pick this show up and put it back on. A&E should fire the executive that pulled the plug.
So they can put on crap like the duck dynasty.
I can remember when NBC cancelled JAG. CBS picked it up and it ran for how many more seasons plus 3 spinoff series..What were the People in charge thinking !!!! I don’t know how they come up with the numbers for who watches the shows, but I DVR a lot of shows and watch them at a later time.
This was one of the best shows on TV in recent years and I hope another network picks it up. I still am not over the end of the show The Unit.
What is A&E thinking when they cancel Longmire? It is the best show this year. It is the closest thing to a modern Western and they want to cancel it? Please re-think this horrible decision and keep it on. The fans are angry.
Long ire is the best I can’t wait for season 4
I just read Longmire has been canceled! It’s sad to think we are “only the public” and not the ones who make the major decisions to cancel certain shows. I can’t tell you how many programs our family have watched, loved and enjoyed and then BOOM they are cancelled. These programs get good rating, have fantastic casts, great story lines and we wait for the next season to begin so we can continue on with the next anticipated episode. There are many shows that are plan stupid, vulgar, insult one’s intellegence and I could go on, but they seem to… Read more »
Can not understand why they cancelled Longmire – really thought it was one of the better shows on TV!! And what a cliff hanger the last episode was!!! If enough fans complain maybe an even better channel will pick up the series.
Terrible decision…this is such a great show
LOVED THE SHOW, I’AM REALLY MAD
