I barely made it through the first episode. I won't be watching the rest. I am a fan of historical shows and was looking forward to this one. But this is just trash. I would rather shows like this were not made than trash like this served up. No attempt has been made to any kind of authenticity; aside from period costumes and mud, this could be set in modern LA or NY. But worse, even if you accept that it is simply modern soap in costumes, the plot and characters are just unbelievable. Literally cardboard cutout boo-hiss characters and pretty women being oppressed.
I'm sure the writers did not intend it but all I saw were modern people in dress-up with put on accents and otherwise behaving like modern Hollywood types.
This show is not as advertised. It is not a historical drama, it is a modern poorly written and unbelievable soap opera with costumes and mud. It's not to be taken seriously, best only for daytime TV methinks.
