I highly recommend watching shogun by the way. the new one, not the 80s one

What's wrong with the 80s one? I loved that show

just clarified what version I meant😄 but I aldo read that it's not as accurate to the book and has a lotnof stuff cut out

has a lotnof stuff cut out

I was surprised, because in my memory the show ran for years and was very slow paced. So I looked it up, and it seems I was thinking of a different series (Kung Fu, 1972)

Kung Fu was supposed to star Bruce Lee. It was stolen out from under him because white people and racism. In response he wrote Warrior, which his daughter finally got made recently. Definitely worth a watch.

Haven't watched the whole 1st season yet but it does indeed seem really good!

My favorite part so far is when the russian Pringles guy yells "Shogun, Geronimo!"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

I'm going to watch this show now just so i can see this Russian Pringles guy for myself, lol! Not enough Pringles guys out there these days

Little disappointing towards the end, but all in all fantastic.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

They are definitely banking on season 2

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Wasn't this planned as a limited series? I know there's talk here and there about a second season but there's nothing confirmed yet.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I haven't got it to the end yet. I think I'm at sixth episode, sitill holding up really well imo

Series is great, last episode covers a lot of ground but simultaneously feels like trying to summarize the series as a whole while also build hype for a second season.
