This is a great movie that highlights westward expansion through the eyes of a few characters. The story is a great tool to show how the events such as cattle ranching and early trapping practices could have played a significant part in growing the country. Although probably fictional, the story holds great interest. Highly recommend.

Amazing array of well know actors. It was very entertaining and seemed like it was realistic of the times it covered--especially the very early days of the trappers & early settlers. Also, was interesting about the Indian tribes. Loved the DVD.

My headline says it all. Centennial is the greatest TV miniseries of all time. Highly engaging from the start with such memorable characters that when I think of the actors I always think of who they played in this miniseries. You can't go wrong with this series and having it missing from your collection is just flat out wrong.

This is one of the best series I have seen. Lots of great actors from the 70’s. It’s very engaging and entertaining. Great story line. Not really any "cons". The story goes from the 1700's to the 1970's (current times when the series was completed)

The miniseries was one of the best productions I ever remember seeing, even better than the Michener epic novel upon which it was based. The story is compelling, and the actors are superb. The emphasis toward the end upon ecological issues, including the draw-down of ground water in irrigated areas, was well ahead of its time (Remember that this fist showed on TV in 1979.). I don't remember any big-screen movies in recent years with so much star power.
