Each season of Lawmen will explore the stories of legendary lawmen and outlaws of the Wild West. The debut season follows Bass Reeves (Oyelowo), a frontier hero "who worked in the post-Reconstruction era as a federal peace officer in the Indian Territory, capturing over 3,000 of the most dangerous criminals without ever being wounded."
