Read the reviews. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears went into this project.

It's a decent show with good actors and a complicated storyline. I especially like Anna Sawai's character, Lady Mariko. Do you think there'll be a second season?

Shogun had a very very long gestation period. In 2013 Shogun was a Fox project and in 2018 FX ordered 10 episodes of Shogun.

I really like the cast, especially Hiroyuki Sanada (Toranaga).

Has anyone seen the original 1980 miniseries? I'm curious how this new version compares so far.

I heard so many good things about this show. I haven't seen it yet, but I'm really looking forward to watching it. The cast looks promising too.

Almost caught up with the episodes. I like that you get to know who you think are "only" minor characters. Without giving anything away... yikes, Nagakado.

The one person I know who read the book and saw the 1980 series said that this new version gives less attention to the relationship to between Blackthorn and Mariko.
