Every time I watch Outlander I understand why people become soo feral over Jamie Fraser….. like whatt dude ??? 🥹🥹🥹
Leave some sanity in women…
The man has literally raised standards for fictional men….real men to I can’t even imagine 😭😭
Honestly I'm just dipping my toes into Regency stuff because I used to be a big fan of Victorian stuff. But I kind of wish there were more thrillers or horror set in this time period! Because like, weren't the Napoleonic wars happening? Imagine a Midsommar but Regency! I know murder mysteries are popular, but it doesn't quite scratch my itch.
How about you guys? Is there anything you want more of? Less of? I would love to hear your thoughts! (Especially when it comes to what happens in books).
Enough yearning to shatter your heart, amazing performances, visually stunning
EDIT: this down vote ratio is kinda crazy, just give it a chance I think you’ll like it. It’s a really well done movie
I hear/see this so often in these kinds of movies and shows and it just strikes me as so funny how polite they were even when they were angry with one another. Does this make anyone else laugh? Should we popularize this?? Maybe it can transform society!
The Bride! (2026) nails its 1930s setting and wardrobe. That feathered dance gown is pure Ginger Rogers Top Hat (1935).
Hello, I wanted to start getting into period dramas, but I'm not sure where to start. I've watched all the seasons of Bridgeton, but I'm not sure what else to watch. I have Hulu, Peacock, Amazon Prime, and Paramount for streaming services. Thank you in advance!
I finished the first season of the new Forsyte drama on PBS, and I have questions, mostly about the wardrobe choices for the men. Clearly a lot of time, effort and money has been put into making the period look perfect, and then... Jolyon Forsyte wanders around London with no collar and no necktie? What's going on? Almost as baffling, when he walks into his office, most of the men are, for some reason, in their shirtsleeves. This seems really out of place. Would Jolyon also have been shirtless while boxing at his club? Maybe, but at least that tradeoff would have been clearly made in order to provide eye candy. But why can't he wear a tie? I'm baffled. Any insight? Am I missing something?
As part of a new NHK/ Netflix distribution deal the first six titles drop on June 22nd . Of interest to people here is the 2014 Taiga Drama Strategist Kanbei .
It’s the life of Kuroda Kanbei who became the chief strategist to Hideyoshi and later sided with Ieyasu . It runs 48 episodes and is one of the best Taiga ( long running ) dramas so far this century. Give it a watch, you won’t be disappointed
I really love the Tudor era and its lore. Recently I have been getting plenty of content recommendations relating to this show 'The Tudors'. I have been tempted to watch it. So tell me, is it good? Is it historically accurate? What's your review and experience? The positives and the negatives?
All the searches I have done insist that HBO’s The Gilded Age is not based on Edith Wharton’s The Age of Innocence, and yet I can’t help but seeing so many of the character archetypes in her novel reproduced in the show. Does anyone else see the similarities, or am I searching too hard?
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times
I signed up for PBS Passport about a week ago. I was disappointed with the selection of programs listed in the "Shows" section because it didn't seem like much. It turns out there are lots of other options that you can only find by searching.
I also discovered that not everything in the Shows section is actually currently available. Foyle's War is one example.
What are some of your favorite dramas that are currently available on PBS Passport so I can search for them? I've already watched at some point:
Downton Abbey
Count of Monte Cristo
Call the Midwife
Sanditon
Grantchester
Victoria
*Edit: Thank you for all of the awesome suggestions! Many of them can only be found if you specifically search for them by name. Their app definitely needs work.
Mine would be Halit from Midnight at the Pera Place on Netflix.
His eyes speak a lot 🫠
Do you remember watching these? What did you think?
I'm half way through the final book in the trilogy and enjoyed them thoroughly. I haven't watched the TV series yet and intend to when I'm finished with the last one. Does the TV series encompass the whole trilogy?
Hi! I just finished watching Carême, and I absolutely loved it, so I was wondering if you have any recommendations for a good french drama, since I'm trying to improve my french. Thank you!
