Ten underrated neo-Western TV series, ranked

Collider published a ranked list of the 10 most underrated neo‑Western TV shows.

The roundup names Dark Winds (2022–) as the top pick, calling it a neo‑Western and psychological thriller that follows three Navajo Tribal Police who patrol the Four Corners; the article lists Dark Winds’ June 12, 2022 release date and AMC as its network. Other entries include Australia’s Mystery Road (2018–2020), a TV bridge between Ivan Sen’s films centered on detective Jay Swan; Tulsa King (2022–), which stars Sylvester Stallone as a Mafia capo sent to Tulsa; Wynonna Earp (2016–2021), which blends neo‑Western tropes with dark fantasy; South Korea’s Song of the Bandits (2023), set in 1920s Gando; and Outer Range (2022–2024), a Wyoming ranch drama that introduces a mysterious black void and was cancelled after two seasons.

The list highlights a mix of miniseries and short‑run shows and stresses that several of these titles fly under the radar despite strong premises or distinctive genre blends. It notes specific formats and runs for some entries (for example, Mystery Road lasted two seasons and Godless is a 2017 miniseries) but does not provide comprehensive ratings or audience data; readers must consult individual series pages for further details.
