YouTube - FOX's Lonestar Trailer

Another "Texas" sitcom. It's about a guy that lives a double life. Half the time he is in Houston with his wife. The other half he is in Midland with a girlfriend. I don't know much about the show... but there have been a number of movies & television shows filmed in Texas in recent years.

So we got oil, Midland, and John Voight? That sounds pretty good to me, I'll be sure to watch. It will be interesting to see how Midland is portrayed. And does this mean that the oil business is sexy again? YeeHaw!

Looks boring and I hope we don't have to hear that annoying exaggerated Texan accent that the media is known for doing.

I've only seen one trailer for this so I'll at least check it out and see if it's any good.

They filmed most of it in the Dallas area.

We will check it out.

I read that they chose to shoot in Dallas since it could stand in for both Houston and Midland.

Hopefully will have a disgruntled girlfriend shoot the main character, a "dream" season ending with a shower, and of course cheating, killing, robbing, over-extravagance, incest, and thievery.

Just like the old days!

Ugh...tell me about it. I watch the Good Guys on Fox, which is filmed here in Dallas, and half of the people on the show sound like they're from rural Alabama. It's so bad that it's actually distracting.

I saw a teaser for Lone Star the other night and noticed the exaggerated drawl. I'm sure copious boots, cowboy hats and pick-up trucks will be involved as well.

Pass. Looks like another series that's capitalizing on barely-existent Texas stereotypes.

People from rural AL sound nothing like that, trust me.

The actors are non native Texans trying to imitate an Texas accent and as usual, fail.
