After bland western prequels to his flagship drama “Yellowstone,” producer Taylor Sheridan finds marginally more fertile territory in “Lawmen: Bass Reeves,” a series that will devote each season to a different frontier lawman or outlaw.
While the pacing still has a hitch in its giddy-up, the subject matter and star, featuring David Oyelowo as the Black 19th-century US marshal, gives the show some historical kick. Capitalizing on the eight-episode format, the Paramount+ series opens with the jarring sight of Bass Reeves, an enslaved Black man, fighting in the Confederate Army, serving his borderline crazy master George Reeves .
What distinguishes the series, largely, is choosing Reeves to inaugurate the concept, bringing race and moral ambiguity into the formula in a way that enriches it, if only moderately so. The popularity of Sheridan’s brand has caused his Paramount portfolio to balloon to Dick Wolf-like proportions, including “1883,” “1923,” “Mayor of Kingstown,” “Tulsa King” and “Special Ops: Lioness.
