About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a darker, more grounded period drama in the vein of The Forsyte Saga or War & Peace; Not for you if slow-building, emotionally heavy stories feel too grim.

Pros: rich character depth; emotionally powerful story; vivid period atmosphere | Cons: very bleak tone; uneven pacing; second series divisive
