Awesome, wholesome family drama

I was so totally involved in this drama,couldn't wait to see what would happen next.Just finished watching 18 episodes and totally loved it. We need more shows of this caliber. Happy to have viewed it but not being aware it was an abruptly canceled show with an incomplete ending was aggravating. What kind of inconsiderate, irresponsible network drops a series prior to a decent conclusion.

Legacy is a family western drama led by patriarch/widower Ned Logan (Brett Cullen)running a prestigious Kentucky horse farm who has a legacy to uphold no matter the obstacles,his son's failed engagement,a devastating barn fire, the addition of an orphan but he is a very honorable man determined to defend the family name. He believes in a solid foundation of love/support and helping others less fortunate. They are a proud,close knit family working to maintain their values among a society driven by power,greed,self-centered neighbors who only pretend to have integrity.

Ned's eldest son Sean (Grayson McCough,) handsome, charismatic with a promising future. Clay (Jeremy Garrett,), passionate, hot-headed son. Alice (Lea Moreno) a mature conflicted teenager very willing to accept the responsibility of running the household and Lexy (Sarah Rayne,) the youngest, who is mature beyond her years. All are prime examples of the best parenting.

This is an excellent, wholesome TV series, with exceptional actors/actresses. There is plenty happening to keep a viewers interest and anticipation to what may happen next. Although evil is around every corner the series is minus violence and killing,maybe that is one reason it was canceled. Go figure today's audiences. The most violent movies create best box office.

Agree, with a previous reviewer regarding giving almost anything to find out if the "wicked stepmother" got what she deserved.
