Really enjoyed the first season, it was one of those shows that really grows on you. Now at the end of the first season I'm hungry for more, please keep this awesome TV show alive!

I really enjoyed this show. The first thing riding against it is the fact that it is a slow burner. It's sad how our attention spans have dwindled since we have become accustomed to the instant gratification of streaming. Streaming's great but you can have too much of a good thing and one can easily dismiss the amount of effort these writers put into developing the story line of this series. It wasn't until around episodes 7 and 8 where it really took off, but I saw enough potential to keep watching up to that point. I wasn't only rewarded for my patience, but felt relieved that I stuck with it and horrified at the thought that I might not have done so. There are so many story arcs that really come together by the end of the first season, with a bit left hanging for a brilliant setup to season 2. If there is another season I think the show will maintain that momentum, seems like a big "if" though. I'd be very sad but unsurprised if the series is cancelled. Not just because of it's initial slow pace, but also the socialist views it represents. One thing I will say is that it has no connection with the SJW sentiments we see today as other people have argued. It is based on the genuine struggle between working folk and big money interests, signifying the beginning of the end of the American Dream. This was around the time that government started getting cosy with big banks and the likes of the Rockefellers. This story depicts those people as well as workers who unionised and stood against that exploitation, with roles played by various fictitious characters.Sure, the extent of the violence might have been "unrealistic", but it is extremely entertaining. It's Wild West style shooting but with upgraded weapons, set in the 1930s, therefore technologically relatable to WW2. What the show did get right, which was crucial, was its depiction of racism and the social constructs in America during that time. It's especially interesting that it takes place in the heart of the country, not too north and not too south. I'd argue that although the extent of the violence might not be totally plausible, it justifiably enhances an extremely compelling story. 10/10 and I pray to Jesus that this show gets a second season, screw Henry Ford.

Very well drawn characters , and a bunch of actors of whom we will see some more of them . But what is a real plus with this show, is that someone up there in Hollywood had the balls to show the life as it was during the G.D. and the real face of capitalism at its worst . And the real face of America , just another communist country but with different name and face. And believe it boys and girls, it was like that and even worst than that... And that's the real quality of this show, the cruel life of then, predicting the cruel life of now. So, drop the BS of the facebook (sic) , tweet and the likes and watch the show . It may give you a look at your future.

Love this show! In fact sooo much that I watch it twice during the week. The directing,the scenes, and mostly the acting are superb.I can barely swallow while watching. The plot to date is intriguing detailing how some oppressed folks struggled against power.Good lesson in American history that some may not realize. LOVE IT.
