    If you're not American it's about a famous fued in American history. Pretty much the redneck version of the Capulets and Montagues

    Looks pretty awesome.

    I was shocked aliens didnt beam down to the planet in Nazi stormtrooper uniforms to take out both the Hatfields and McCoys....

    If History channel starts producing HBO styled, albeit slightly family friendlier I'm all over it like white on rice. Hopefully this is a glimpse of what's to come.
    And judging how well it has done hopefully we indeed see more of it.

    Sure I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is Im not. I honestly feel that America is the best country and all other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

    Yeah, but it still ties into the redneck thing they seem to love so much now (ex. Axemen, Swamp People)

    Yes. History Channel wouldn't confuse me by flashing boobs all over the screen then randomly throwing cocks flopping around and getting cut off in between.

    Looking forward to seeing if this is good.

    Also, 'Hillbillies' would better describe these guys rather than just "Rednecks". Rednecks can refer to a great range of people (informally), where as Hillbillies is more specific, mountain folk (most prominently from the Appellation mountains). Although the term is considered offensive it does mark these people as different from the average "redneck".

    Not really a subject I'm interested in, but production value seems fairly high. Willing to give it a look.

    Can someone tell me why the hell are they filming this in Romania? I've been to eastern Kentucky/WV. Romania doesn't look anything like this area. They did the same thing with Cold Mountain and it showed.
