Taylor Sheridan’s Lawmen Could Focus on 1923’s Mamie Fossett

by

After the conclusion of Season 2 in 1923, there’s certainly a chance for more episodes of Taylor Sheridan’s underappreciated western series, Lawmen.

1923 currently finds itself in a challenging position, striving to maintain the Dutton Ranch and reassemble some beloved characters. However, it’s important to remember that Taylor Sheridan has a rich portfolio of television productions beyond this one.

One of the standout historical dramas is Lawmen, which debuted with its inaugural season, “Bass Reeves,” in 2023. Unlike a Yellowstone spinoff, this series was designed as an anthology (meaning it tells different stories each season). The first season centered around the renowned real-life U.S. Deputy Marshal Bass Reeves, who is believed to be the model for the Lone Ranger.

So far, there’s been no news regarding another season, but with the addition of a new character from 1923, we now have a clear idea about whom the upcoming story might revolve around.

In the second episode of season 2, I was introduced to the character of Mamie Fossett, brilliantly portrayed by Jennifer Carpenter. This role is based on a real-life U.S. Deputy Marshal who is as formidable as they come.

Initially, she encounters harsh words from Marshal Kent, expressing his doubt that a woman can handle the job. However, she swiftly silences him. In the third episode, she discovers the location of the Comanche camp that he had previously assaulted.

Moving forward, it seems that he might encounter her as an additional challenge in his quest for Teonna.

Her performance in the Yellowstone spinoff has made her one of the standout new characters, even raising speculation about her potential lead role in another Lawmen series. The story arc of her striving to earn a badge amidst a male-dominated Wild West would undoubtedly provide thrilling content, and it’s evident that viewers have already taken a liking to her character.

One Reddit user mentioned that TS followed in Bass Reeves’ footsteps, which sets a good example. I must say, I’m quite enjoying Jennifer Carpenter’s portrayal of Marshal Fossett so far. It’s been an unexpected delight for me regarding the show ‘1923’.

Another individual concurred, expressing, “Count me in. It appears she’s furious regarding the senseless slaughter of the indigenous people by the other marshal. I hope she encounters him for a confrontation.

I really like her now,” one user commented, expressing affection for the actress they admired in ‘Dexter.’ They expressed hope for her character receiving more screen time on the series or even a spin-off.
