I don't know if it will catch on - westerns can be a hard sell - but it's another fine AMC choice.
People Weekly by Tom Gliatto
This drive for revenge is what makes the pilot spark, smoke and go chug-a-chug-chug. [14 Nov 2011, p.45]
Entertainment Weekly by Ken Tucker
It's a measure of how absorbing Hell on Wheels is that each of these characters has evolved into someone we know and, in varying degrees,m root for. [10 Aug 2012, p.65]
Newsday by Verne Gay
Solid cast, intriguing premise, and--best of all--the Old West. Should easily be another winner for AMC.

Where it diverges [from many trappings of a Western] is the lack of white hats and black hats. The axis of good and bad is constantly shifting, which is part of what makes the story intriguing.
Chicago Sun-Times by Lori Rackl
Co-creators Joe and Tony Gayton have turned out a solid series that got stronger with each of the five episodes I watched.
Uncle Barky by Ed Bark
Hell on Wheels is a big and ambitious stab at the genre, with a lot going on and much to recommend.
