Shogun is a GROUNDBREAKING masterwork of gorgeous visuals and unforgettable performances that is sure to be one of the best series of 2024.


quote:

Shogun is riveting. It’s gorgeous. It’s the TV equivalent of a page-turner.


quote:

Gorgeous and immersive from the very first frame, the new 'Shogun' is a stunning epic that never lets big-budget set pieces overshadow the human drama at its core.


quote:

FX’s updated, sumptuous version of James Clavell’s sweeping novel blends an intoxicating combination of action, romance and political intrigue, majestically spread over 10 parts that, unlike most limited series, sustain that weight and then some.


quote:

Shogun is television at its best, using its budget to create a gorgeous, immersive world but never letting spectacle detract from its emphasis on complex character arcs.


quote:

Shogun is a rare one-of-a-kind show that comes along to prove the power of television.


quote:

‘SHOGUN’ is Certified Fresh at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Described as the “most transportive TV epic since ‘Game of Thrones’.”

Is this more woke shite?






Just kidding. I fired up Hulu to catch Sons of Anarchy and saw this. I am a sucker for period pieces in other countries.

O man that's what I like to hear.

Going to start it tonight. One of the shows I've been looking forward to the most. Didn't realize it was just a mini-series, was hoping it would be a multiple season show.

I made it 3/4ths of the way before tapping out.

I love the subject matter and visuals but not the execution. Dialogue with subtitles, and score got tiresome quickly for me.
