Not a traditional happy ending

I binged watched this series and enjoyed it quite a bit. There are several characters in the mix that have some serious arcs throughout the 8 episodes. Some of it predictable, some of it new-especially to an American audience.

Want strong women? They are here, and not forced as they are in Hollywood. The female lead is great and while integral to the story, gets supported by the rest of the cast. She may be the most stunningly beautiful woman I have seen on television.

I would give this series a watch, as an American I don't have experience with colonialism (other than we were once a colony) and this series gave an informative explanation without the Hollywood preachiness or pretension that permeates its core.

Which may be why we are seeking entertainment elsewhere...
