Comment: This series showcases two things: fight scenes and sex scenes. It was a lot! With that said, you’ll find the story in between those two events. Anyway, the story itself is ok (not great); they spend a lot of time on the soap box promoting current day issues because I don’t think their audience would condone the actual social intolerances of the late 1800s. And, to be fair, I’m relieved they did NOT promote old societal issues, but the soap box was tiresome as well. If they have another season, I won’t be watching it. I’m done.
