Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace gets six episode television adaptation. Episode one out now.

I'm a big fan of slow UK drama but this one tested my patience - like get on with it already !

It's also hard to accept the likes of Jim Broadbent as a Russian aristocrat - in fact it's the most British Russian saga I know.

That said it's lavishly produced with tons of eye candy for all of us, including the scrumptious Lily James.

Five episodes to go.

Very good show. Starting to watch S02 this week , myself.

If you like this, Flesh and Bone may also be you cup of tea. I thought it was excellent. Sort of Whiplash meets Black Swan.

If they actually improved on the original they would have a case but almost to a series they have not - and that includes House of Cards.

This is interesting though.

UK version was s01,s02,s03 = 4 episodes each and s04 = 2 episodes
US version, s01 = 10 episodes

Are they going wrap up the entire series in one season then? Episode 1 followed the UK version fairly closely (location changed). Guess no South Africa in this one :(

Not an American Horror Story fan. Did not even get past episode 1 of season 4, but today I thought I would try Hotel.

Booyah!

Five episodes later ... and it's the first season I like. Great soundtrack! Some excellent work by Lady Gaga. In fact I recon she steals the show.

Bat **** crazy season :D

Hey ? The UK version was a trilogy - House of Cards, To Play the King and The Final Cut. 4 episodes each.

Trying some newer shows.

Finding Blindspot dull. Nothing new to offer.

Half way through Hand of God. Not the best, but will finish it.
