Lonesome Dove

Return - S1-E4

Question: Gus was shot in the same leg with two arrows. Why would he need to have both legs removed?

Answer: They didn't have antibiotics to prevent infections from setting in. No sterilized equipment. No clean rooms to work in. Everything was dirty.

Return - S1-E4

Revealing mistake: When they arrived at Montana, the Captain said that this is where we will stop and build a ranch. There are two straight depressions in the ground converging together that would not have been there since this was virgin land.
