This series is well produced - that is the props are good to look at (though the shots outside the house looks very superficially added), the house interior is impressive.

The main character seems to have some sort of speech impediment, or maybe they never just told her not to mumble when she is acting.

Then the total lack of a story.

What is the story?

What does it want to illustrate?

I could not see anything.

Maybe to illustrate that the people (the few people because I was left with the image that Amsterdam then had not even a hundred people) of Amsterdam then liked sugar?

In the end a decently acted waste of time.

I am a fan of Justified. The old one. All it's seasons.

Along with shows like Breaking Bad, The Wire and Goliath it probably represented the "golden age of tv" that seems to have ended now.

This remake is very bad at all the things the original show was good at.

The episodes are chaotic. Loose ends flap around. The story line jars. The dialogue is at times embarrassingly bad and at other times (thankfully) wiped out by irritating music. (Who's stupid idea was it that thumping music instead of a developing story is what creates tension?) Not all the characters is integrated into the story.

And please, a program like this is NOT the place for ideological "woke" BS.

Avoid this. Watch the old ones again.

Women screaming, running in the mud with huts burning.

Over and over.

And some agonizing by a number of actors to music that gives one an idea what a score for a Viking movie by Wagner would have sounded like. Lot of low notes.

Well photographed. That's all.
