Taboo

I wish this show didn't just stop!l. Bring it back please! This was easily one of my favorite shows ever... not to mention the Tom Hardy eye candy. He is a great and versatile actor.

Finally, a different idea for a show. It exemplifies history with a mysterious twist. There's is no predictability and all of the actors play their roles splendidly. I couldn't wait until the next episode aired. This was before streaming. I ended up buying it so that I could rewatch it all together, without having to wait between episodes. I believe that it was written by Tom Hardy and his father. It was well written and just wish it would continue, so that is a satisfying ending... Or any ending.

Tom Hardy is one of the best actors on the planet...period. Besides maybe Leonardo DiCaprio he's my favorite actor and one of the handful of actors where I'd watch the movie/show knowing nothing more than that their in it! Taboo is another great performance for Hardy. It is thrilling from start to finish and can't wait until they finally make Season 2!

The first season of this show is excellently written and directed. Tom Hardy does an outstanding job. The historical material is an educator's dream, but the content is a school teacher's nightmare! Every taboo is broken, and in pre-Victorian England, that's a lot of taboos!

This TV show explores a part of history that is often glossed over. I definitely tried to research a little more about the war of 1812 while watching it. Some quite interesting things happened in that war. The British burned down Washington D.C.!

If I had one critique of this show, it would be that the color scheme is a little monotonous. I think they should take off the 19th century filter.

I definitely am looking forward to the next season. I really hope that the intricate plot development continues and becomes more historically interesting. It will be difficult, however, to live up to this outstanding first season. Please, give it a watch! Though not with children -

Its so original that we need the second season ASAP PLZZZZ

He encounters numerous enemies while he tries to build his company against the monopoly that is East India Company. Hardy is one of the best actors on the planet...period. Besides maybe Leonardo DiCaprio he's my favorite actor and one of the handful of actors where I'd watch the movie/show knowing nothing more than that they're in it. Taboo is another in a long line of great performances for Hardy. The show is thrilling from start to their are rumors that they plan on making another season. I hope that's true.
