Taboo: Season 1

Wish they had made a sequel (supposedly still a possibility with FX). Tom Hardy and Johnathan Pryce on top of their game...as usual. Kind of a Charles Dickens story during the Napoleonic era. Great cast!

This is one of my all time favorite shows.

I got this, not really knowing what to expect, except that Tom Hardy starred in it, and you could count on it being great on that alone. And I will say it was really good in the show. I thoroughly enjoyed it and entertained and have recommended it to other friends of mine to view. It’s sitting in the time of post independence from England with tension still going on, and it deals with a lot of the politics of the time, but it’s an entertaining way that it was done

Fast shipping, exactly as described.

Hope there is a Season 2!

I love this movie

I am really digging FX original programming. Fresh, different, and doesn't assume it's audience is stupid. Refreshing. After seeing his performance in this as well as films like Bronson and The Drop, I'd watch Tom Hardy in anything at this point: watering his lawn, bowling, whatever. This guy is underappreciated as most people only know him from The Dark Knight as Bane (*sigh).Yes, he is a fine, grade A hunk, but dude has serious acting ability (and from show credits, production/creative writing) skills as well. I am a sucker for BBC/PBS British period show dramas, but this is a horse of a completely different color from your Downton Abbeys and Poldark tentpoles. I like the intrigue between the Dutch East India Trading company and British monarchy and the James Delaney characters ability to outplay several dangerous elements with nebuloud interests in early 19th century London. The show has a very broodiny mysterious pulse to it. You are both repulsed by and all the more drawn in to James from his first entry on screen to his ingenious drive and machinations to achieve his goals against seemingly impossible odds. And his wins aren't of the typical gimmicky, tv programming variety.You get the feeling that This man is either a prolific chess player setting up each move and desired effect waaaay in advance or maybe all that coal dust and ashes he's smearing on his face really does allow him to see the future or maybe talk to the dead. Or maybe he's just a horrible drunk, I'm not sure yet. In any event, he is someone that would NOT make a good drinking buddy, and best would be really good to steer clear of him in general. However, if you needed a mountain moved or just wanted the King of England or a giant corporation to stop harassing you - get this guy on your team!!!Add to this mix, atypical TV topics & historical elements like American revolutionary spies operating in England, Afro-pagan witchcraft, the significance of anyone mentioning the War of 1812 (an event, strangely, not really discussed in history classes in U.S. education), and one of the first multi-national corporate monopolies, Dutch East India Co., an organization whose power, influence, and wealth rivaled that of European monarchies and helped to inact geo-political policies around the world that many are still affected by to this day - makes for one very meaty, intellectually engaging, of the tv shows currently on air. Looking forward to season 2!

well written, no predictable moments, It is Raw!! Tom Hardy is exceptional, Excellent cast, the story keeps you involved and waiting for the next event, ending of the 8th episode leaves one wanting to see what happens in the next season; Excellent, Worth a rewatch! 5 ***** Stars!!!

If you like Tom Hardy this is a great series. I have watched it so many times and still it's great I highly recommend it 👌enjoy

Buena serie. La adquirí en región 1 por lo que no hay subtítulos en español pero poniéndolos en inglés se hace bastante comprensible. Tom Hardy es garantía.

I really hope they make a second season especially since Tom is open to it cause this was bloody brilliant, great show

Excellent show. Best role I've seen by Tom Hardy. Not a good guy as such but an excellent character. I hope there will be a season 2. Really great story and very well done with lots of great actors.

This series is excellent, and I just loved it. Tom HARDY is so mysterious in this. He is such a terrific actor. And the filming is also terrific. Very dark and mysterious!!!!!!
