10 Best TV Shows Set During the American Civil War

The American Civil War ended exactly 160 years ago, yet it remains one of the most discussed historical events. Hollywood directors are especially known for their penchant for digging into this particular conflict. From Glory to The Good, the Bad & the Ugly, there has been a shortage of movies set in the era (1861 – 1865). Television show creators, too, tap into the war (either as a backdrop or as a main canvas), and as is the case in the movies, Confederate-leaning characters are mostly depicted as villains.
