Having watched 6 eps of season 2 I have to say it's good but season 1 was better. I hate when shows show you something fantastic and then pull out "5 months prior" shyt because it means the storyteller has a lack of faith in the story.

We in this for Season 2.

It's a slow paced show, similar to 'Mad Men'. Nothing "happens" per se, like in Mad Men. Look at this show as a story set in time.

Very well shot, good costume design and very high production value.

They need to give Princess Margret more play. Her storyline with the captain is what carried the show. I give this a 4 out of 5. I started watching it with my girl and stopped after one episode....thought it was boring. One day I got a tooth abscess and was miserable and binge watched the rest. The visuals are great and the acting is very good. If you can get over the fact that these people and their families raped, pillaged and slaughtered millions to achieve this level of wealth and opulence and just watch objectively, you might like it.
