Well, to be fair to Mr Hardy, I had no trouble understanding what he was saying.
Maybe I am just fluent in Mumblish.

Or maybe you're a young whippersnapper who still has working ears, damn it.....!

Ooooh missed this! Just off to download it.

[Lowtardog]

Thought it was great

I don't know guys I might have to disagree.
I watched the first episode last night. It was okay.
I guess I don't care for shows that are sooo dark and
everyone is an evil/bad person.

Just watched the trailer which looks very promising 

Just wonder if it is somehow possible to watch the series from outside the uk 

It is on FX in the United States. It premiered on Tuesday night.

So, overall thoughts?
I really enjoyed it and generally thought the main characters developed well (couple of exceptions) but more Period Adventure than Gothic Horror in the end. Last scenes on the dockside were very effective and dramatic, would make a good convention game for one of the rpg lite games like IHMN or Savage Worlds.

I predict one of the usual suspects will be plagiarising the IP before too long with a "not" Delaney, "not" Atticus and the others. Very identifiable characters.

We watched the first episode and got drawn in to the story, but after watching the second episode we've lost interest.  Very slow, too dark and didn't take to any of the characters, just not for us.

I loved the series. Tom Hardy was a force of nature and very impressive. I read that more series are planned. I do hope so.

Same hear however was gutted the Maori chap bought it as he would have been a great character to continue into another series

[Eric the Shed]

I thought the first seven episodes were great....but the eight and last part left me disappointed.

Costumes, Uniforms, Props and general sets superb.

I loved the Price Regent character !

[Hammers]

I thought epsioe 8 had some good action and also that applaudable premise that no character is safe.
