Very nice series, with formidable actors, actually tastes like more, but this seems to be a miniseries? Very under the radar, so expect that it will stay with this one adventure.

A bit unbalanced here and there; the series starts off very exaggerated and bland and things collapse a bit halfway through, but gradually this develops into a nicely worked out, beautifully played and beautifully designed miniseries. Matthew Rhys is perfectly cast as Mason and he finds himself surrounded by a top-notch cast. Could have been shortened a bit here and there, way too much time is spent on the whole happening around the church, but the series is impressive enough to overlook the shortcomings. Typical HBO quality - and that's meant as a compliment.

What a series. The first episode still seems a bit standard, dark 1930s crime series but it gets better and more intriguing. Reminded me a lot of Carnivale in atmosphere, setting, and even the music (it even seems a bit stolen...). Lots of fascinating themes, sometimes too much projected from contemporary themes, but at the same time that's exactly what they have to do with such a remake. Rhys is also perfectly cast as Mason, Maslany can freestyle magnificently as we know her from Orphan Black, and yes there are many caricatures from the 1930s, but that's just so wonderful.

Incidentally, just jokingly take a look at the roles that the same characters in the old series from the 50s and 60s are now getting, and you immediately see the statement that the remake already is itself.

I really hope they continue with this (including with Maslany), what a potential this has!
