I must have done because I found Shogun one of the most tedious shows I have ever had to endure. You know a show is good when the time flies by and the episode is over before you realise it, well the exact opposite happened with Shogun. By the time I reached the end I felt I had climbed Mount Everest barefoot and blindfolded. The first 2 episodes are interesting enough with Blackthorne becoming stranded in medieval Japan and having to find his way through an alien land, all fair enough.
Then the reming 8 episodes gets bogged down in intricate and tedious political manuvers of Japans feudal lords with endless loooong winded scenes of people sitting about yapping endlessly as the subtitles flies by. The translator girl was so gloomy with her endless whining about wanting to die I literally yelled with joy when she finally got her wish towards the end. If you have insomnia I can't reconnect Shogun enough, it will put you to sleep quick smart.
