Does anyone know where the instrumental music comes from at the end of the show during credits? I'm in the US and watch every Friday on my local PBS station. I would greatly appreciate it if someone would post the answer to this in the FAQ's page. Thank you!
I agree with the other review. It's difficult to watch. It's something trying awfully hard to be a movie.
Compared to what passes for a quality TV series on broadcast TV in the states, Anno 1790 is one of my few viewing enjoyments. As a person who is homebound and financially challenged(can't afford cable,satellite,etc.),Anno 1790 and the other international mystery series from MHz save my otherwise very isolated life. I just wish they would continue the Anno series and add a season 2!
Since I am required to have 10 lines of text I will comment on the show:
1. The show is realistic to the era in it's costume and design. It's good to see a TV series with an historic setting actually create authentic portrayals. The characters in Anno 1790 all have disheveled, greasy hair, which I find relieving. I hate watching period pieces set in the 18th and 19th centuries with the character's hair in a clean, nice coif when you know that even for the upper classes bathing and soap was a luxury.
2. I Like the political underpinnings of the show. In the states no one talks about a "class" driven, hierarchical society(except maybe the Occupy Movment) ---yet there is one. I feel the show does a good job of portraying the brutality of classism, sexism, etc.
3. The acting is generally good. I agree with the previous review that Peter Eggers is OK and the rest of the cast is strong, esp. in the development of strong women characters.
