Spoiler:

It was a good show but that's why i said it was "interesting" thought provoking I suppose but kind of weighs heavy too

…as recommended, I’m watching One Day…it’s a bit different and great chemistry with the lead characters…I like the concept of looking at their lives each year on that one day…

…I have to say that this is such a tonic atm…no murders or tension or serial killers or violence etc….just great characters and their lives……it’s what I loved about This is Us….

I haven't seen Shogun yet, myself.

So I'm curious, what didn't you like about it? Is there a red flag to watch out for?

I can tell after 5 minutes but gave this longer as everyone was raving about it online

I get that tbf, I've had some Shows where I've known quickly that it's not for me.

Personally I think that 20 minutes is a bit hasty, but I understand if you were just stone cold to Shogun's style.

Thanks for explaining your reason to me btw, honestly appreciated.

…I think that’s the reason that I couldn’t gel with Ozark….it was highly recommended but on the back of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul….it was just such a pale version of a well done storyline …I liked Griselda, though…it was a completely different take to have a female with such power in the drug cartel world….
