I love it!
19 July 2017
I LOVE this show! I am a sucker for period dramas. I wasn't expecting it to be Downton Abbey-level but I suppose that's why I wasn't disappointed. You can't out-British the British. That being said, I, personally, am able to suspend belief and play along with the diversity among family members especially considering the diversity within my own family. Your children are not always carbon copies of their parents, especially in interracial situations.

I enjoy the storyline as well as the twists and turns. I appreciate getting to know the characters and seeing how they handle difference situations. I hope this show sticks around long enough to people to a) hear about it and b) give it a chance. I had the fortune of watching the first few episodes in one day and I think that helped tremendously with holding my interest. Unfortunately, I have to DVR the episodes or watch them on Hulu because I simply cannot keep schedule of every show that I watch especially when it comes to adding in new shows. I think this show has a lot of potential if it were to be handled correctly. Moving the timeslot is not going to help at all. It may have performed better as a mini-series.
