Reception
Variety said "The range is strewn with oaters that just don’t float, but Hallmark Channel gets it right with Johnson County War. Clocking in at four hours, the miniseries-that-isn’t — it’s airing on one night — does its best to revive the small-screen Western, a genre that hasn’t seen a classic in some time... pic has enough machismo sunsets and gunplay to keep viewers hooked despite its extended running time. The problem, however, is that Hallmark just doesn’t draw ’em in."[1]
