History YMMV / Godless

* FridgeLogic: At the climax battle, one of the bad guys rides his horse inside a building and ''up the stairs'' to get to the roof where some snipers are at. While an awesome trick to see a horse run up a staircase, in reality the bad guy would have no way to get his horse back down again as it's physically impossible for a horse to walk ''down'' a staircase.

** Two words. '''Whitey Winn'''. The fact his actor is Creator/ThomasBrodieSangster (who was in ''Film/TheMazeRunnerSeries'' and ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'') and the insane amount of {{Adorkable}} badass just made him a fan favorite. [[spoiler:His death came off as a shocker and tear jerker]].

* BaseBreaker: ** Sheriff [=McNue=] can be this for some, due to his [[spoiler: lack of love for his daughter, who he blames for his wife's death]].

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Maggie, ''all the way''. Iyovi as well due to being a prime example of CoolOldLady.

* FanFicFuel: Since it's a "limited series", most people have gone up with writing sequels, such as [[spoiler: Roy going to California and reuniting with his brother]].

* JerkassWoobie: [[spoiler: '''Frank''' of all people, in particular when he [[spoiler:he runs into the household full of sick people from the small pox. He shows empathy and tries to help them, especially a poor sick girl and scolds the Devlin Twins for their lack of respect of the situation]]. When it's revealed [[spoiler: he provided them all a MercyKill, he seems completely solemn about it]].

* HilariousInHindsight: In-universe. At the end [[spoiler:Roy finally shoots Frank Griffin dead despite the latter's verbal protest of "I've seen the way I go, this ain' it!" Meaning that all of Frank's previous near-death encounters which he all calmly approached under this belief (being pointed at with a gun, interacting with deadly contagious people, being in the middle of crossfire etc.), were really all situations he had survived on pure luck and nothing else.]]

* MoralEventHorizon: Frank does this on a repeated basis, but the biggest MOE he's doing is [[spoiler: force the women of the Norwegian family into having sex with him after threatening to kill their children]], but if you wanna go further, [[spoiler: murdering an entire town could be one]].

* CompleteMonster: Frank Griffin is a ''utter'' remorseless killer and thief at that. [[FreudianExcuse Starting off with losing his family to the Native Americans]], Frank develops into a thief who adopts poor souls who have lost families or are just shells of their former selves into joining his gang. When [[TheHero Roy Goode]] decides to abandon the gang life and betrays Frank and steals their last loot, Frank retaliates by [[DisproportionateRetribution murdering an entire town]]. He continues to show dark actions on his willingness to come after Roy, including [[spoiler: scaring a poor group of Norwegians and even forcing the women into having sex with him]], [[spoiler: murdering Marshall Cook when he comes looking for him]], and eventually [[spoiler: murdering the town of Blackdom simply because they refused to join his side against the town of La Belle]]. His final act was attempting [[spoiler: to persuade Truckee to join him after Truckee was struggling to find Roy before he and Roy finally have their final battle]]. [[AffablyEvil Persuasive]], [[{{Determinator}} determined]], and also [[TheSociopath murderous]], Frank Griffin is willing to kill and harm others if it means to come after Roy, who he considers a true surrogate son.

* AwesomeMusic: The soundtrack is ''gorgeous''. Just listen to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeBVOd8qEyA the opening theme]] for one.

* TheScrappy: A.T. Grigg, for being a lecherous and arrogant reporter. [[spoiler: The fact he survives the final showdown makes it more grueling]].
