"Very well done series. The subject matter is surely macabre and not for the faint of heart. Dakota Fanning is brilliant as usual and carries the show to a different level. Just watching her is pure pleasure. I really liked the attempt of portrayal of life of the 19 century as it was: dirty and cruel, no fairytale of the beautiful past there. Very good show overall, although I thought the first season was more interesting than the second. "
"loved the first season so unbelievably much. Seeing all the characters grow was amazing. the story kept me on edge at all times.
did not like the second season. I didn't feel as on edge while watching it and it didn't feel like the characters grew any more as people. it felt boring and I was never able to finish the last few episodes "
