Growing up, one of my favorite movies was the 1988 film Young Guns, followed by the sequel Young Guns II in 1990. The film starred Emilio Estevez as Billy the Kid. 

What I loved about the film was it got me to want to learn more about the real-life characters and the history surrounding the Lincoln County War. Through the years, I’ve made four trips to visit various sites and final resting places of several key figures. 

When a series about Billy the Kid was announced starring Tom Blyth as Billy, I was immediately on board. Thankfully, I wasn’t disappointed as season one tells the story of young Henry McCarty, a.k.a. Billy the Kid. The second season, which is currently airing on MGM+, centers around the Lincoln County War. 

I absolutely love the series’ look, so who better to have on than the Set Designer for the show, Evan Spence? Having worked on projects like Fraggle Rock, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Fargo, and others, I was fascinated listening to him talk about what brought Billy the Kid to life.

I provide testosterone to the site. You won’t be reading about how nice a actress looks in a dress or how much of a hunk Matt Bomer is in my reviews. I describe colors using words like brown, not taupe. My twitter name is @staffaroadtrip because I love road trips and have done two different 48-state road trips since 2008. My favorite show is White Collar.
