Pierce Brosnan returns to the small screen, and we couldn't be more excited!
While he might not have the best Texas accent we've ever heard, Brosnan still delivers a powerful performance as the older Eli McCullough, who is at the center of this compelling new western drama.
The Son Season 1 Episode 1 and The Son Season 1 Episode 2 introduce us to McCullough in two separate timelines. In them, we learn how the young man who survived a Comanche Indian attack becomes a ruthless cattle baron later in life.
Jacob Lofland is just as powerful as young Eli, as the two timelines converge to give us a clear picture of a man who only wants to protect what's rightfully his.
We are first introduced to Eli as a young man hunting for food for his family while his father is out of town. The family comes under attack by Comanche Indians and his mother and sister are killed.

The last time we saw Pierce Brosnan on a television series was on Remington Steele. This time around instead of playing a detective, he plays the patriarch of the McCullough clan, a Texas family rich in the oil and cattle business.
The series is based on Philipp Meyer's 2013 novel of the same name. If focuses on Eli's life as a young boy growing up in 1849 and as an adult in 1915. It wasn't an easy road for Eli and he'll do anything to protect what he worked so hard and suffered for, no matter the consequences.
Like any television family saga, this epic western is full of drama and intrigue and should definitely be on your must-watch list. Plus, did we mention it stars Pierce Brosnan?
