TV series can be extremely addictive, and it is no surprise if a particular story is well written with the right amount of pace injected into it. However, even the best of things will have to come to an end, and the same applies to any TV series. Netflix has been on a roll in recent years thanks to their partnership with Marvel, expanding the Marvel cinematic universe to the small screen in weekly doses with more and more characters getting their own series. However, that is not the only golden goose that Netflix has -- Longmire is another series that has garnered quite a strong following. In fact, on September 23rd, Longmire Season 5 was just aired on Netflix in a run of 10 serialized episodes.

The show itself has proven to be quite the huge hit for web fans. In fact, it managed to achieve a gathering of over six million people watching it via the web in a single day streaming, now how about that? Longmire Season 5 would ensure that the cliffhanger ending of Season 4 does not disappoint without any kind of resolution.

Right from the first episode in Season 5 itself, Sheriff Walt Longmire was shot by an unknown assailant. Apart from that, Dr. Donna has fallen into the wrong hands, literally, by being kidnapped. Absaroka, the fictional county created to cater for the Longmire series, is the ideal location for the whole story.

With many twists and turns of the events, you can be sure that the final episode in Season 5 will be another cliffhanger, as it comes with the title "The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of". Now we will certainly be able to think of so many different ways in which our imagination is tickled with such a title, and since Season 1 of Longmire kicked off, viewers have been able to enjoy 53 episodes.

What of Longmire Season 6 then? Will there be a renewal? It certainly looks like it, where in an interview with Katee Sackhoff and Lou Diamond Phillips which was shown on YouTube, both of the stars did offer a flashback of the Season 5 scenes. It is also of due importance that the two of them continued to praise Netflix who had given the nod of approval for Longmire Season 6.

As for what Longmire Season 6 has in store for the masses, that remains to be seen. One thing we do know is, keep this talented team together, and viewers will not be disappointed. May they be inspired to come up with richer episodes in Season 6 for fans of the Longmire series. In fact, Longmire writer John Craig has just unveiled his novella on the Longmire mysteries, which gives rise to hope that the series will continue entertaining folks in front of their computer monitors for one more season at the very least.

Are you one who simply cannot wait for one episode to arrive week after week, or you prefer to sit through the entire season in one or two sittings? I suppose a true blue fan would settle for both options, trying to catch things from different angles each time they view a particular episode.
