I watched the first episode. I liked it. Very well done. Good actor and the scenery and costumes are first rate.
Looking forward to the next episode.

Yep, episode one looked good. Only vaguely remember the original and the book now.
See how 2 goes tonight.

First two episodes dropped today. Colour me impressed

Is that a REPLACEMENTS reference?

No. No idea what you’re on about

Just watched the first two episodes, excellent all around!

Love it so far! So far not that many teppo though? They've been mentioned so I hope we see them in use and not 100% bows like in The Last Samurai..

And now, I wait two months and then see if I can get a free trial week promo to watch it...

Enjoying it

Rewatching the first two eps and one thing is annoying me more and more; the use, in interior scenes, of extreme wide angle lenses, coupled with a very narrow depth of field leading to curvature and edge distortion. I know why they've done it; it makes the sets look much bigger than they are and allows natural light to be used but, christ, it's bugging me.

Watched the first half of episode 1, so far very good. I missed the apple though, it was a nice touch in the book albeit not critical to any translation to screen.

Having no idea about the source material I watched the first 2 episodes and really enjoyed them. Looking forward to the remaining season.

What's your take on the blue filter? I know this was filmed in Canada, but does everything have to look so drab?

Some are claiming the filter is a tribute to pre-digital film making, but I don't recall the 1980 series looking so dull. Ten to Chi to aka Heaven and Earth was also filmed in Canada and that was a riot of color in comparison.

Really loving this so far, Ep 3 was great

It's airing on FX, too, so you can see it if you don't have Hulu...for now.

Been watching it on FX, and am enjoying it.

I watched the three first episodes and I like it a lot! Just placed an order for "Test of Honour" and started to dig out those Dixon and Citadel miniatures I have in the Leadpile
