I watched it. Visually stunning, and although I had issues with the editing and plotting, I'll tune in for the next episode.

Looks great.

I liked it. I think they will need to pick up the pacing of the series if they want to attract the masses to watch (and be successful), but I personally didn't have a problem with the pacing. I agree the acting was phenomenal.

I'm confused about that totally !

I thought the child was stated to be his father's though it being the incestuous product of him and his sister would be very Lannisterish and fit with her plea to keep their secret

I really really like it ! Thank you for asking. How about you ? It started a little slow but the character developments slowly started to get going.
The scene with Pryce, Hardy, and the council at meeting towards the end of the episode
was phenomenal. It was a first episode to what looks like a very interesting story.
I wasn't sure whether he had a child with his step sister or step daughter ? That confused me or was that a made up rumour ?
Whichever we shall see !
And his mysterious background with flashbacks is perhaps some kind of African magic ?
Can't wait to see the next episode !

I'm glad there's at least one fellow American in here!

I AM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS SHOW ! Hardy and Pryce ? I'M WATCHING !!!!! I live on the east coast and it airs tonight at 10pm on FX. I've been waiting for months to see.

unlike most the board I'm not really a big Tom Hardy fan.
Me neither.
I saw the pilot it is excellent.
Awesome. I'm currently binging Narcos but look forward to starting a good new show after. Weird that so many Peaky Blinders fans said it was meh.

Me too, it was fantastic. Im looking forward to more.
Hot guys + dark subject matter + plenty of violence = watchable television.

It is very dark and mysterious with that typical dirty historic London feel combined with a hint of a magical/ supernatural something.

I'm hearing the pilot was meh. I'm still going to give it a try but I haven't seen one person say they loved it.

It's a joint BBC/FX production. Accent ON BBC.
As of today, I have read
31
pages of Game of Thrones

Is it an FX show or are they just airing it too? I know The Night Manager aired in other countries first and then AMC aired it. I had already binged it long before it finally aired here. I recently binged Frontier, which is supposed to be an American-Canadian show but I'm not sure when the USA is even getting it.

It came out in other countries earlier than we get it in the USA. I know the brits had it days ago because I've seen some discussion of it in a Peaky Blinders group.
Ok, that makes sense. I forgot that shows can sometimes be aired on different dates in different countries. It was the same way with Downton Abbey. England got the seasons like a month or two before the US did.
It's strange though. You would think FX, being a US network, would air it first in the US before other countries (or at least at the same time).
