"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
One of the most raw and brutal out of all the period pieces I've seen yet it has so much heart. The first episode sets up the setting, tone, characters, and themes impeccably well, and the fairly good historical accuracy makes the story all the more authentic (they actually use the word "stays" and "shift" and there is not one "corset torture" scene which, if you're a historical fashion nerd like me, is something to praise). While seasons one and two are easily better than season three, the writing is a bit formulaic as others have pointed out but it's by no means bad. The highlight of this show is definitely the cast of characters, which is very diverse and filled with people who are very flawed, sympathetic, and human. (Also, I'm in the camp that actually likes the soundtrack because, yeah, it's modern sounding but it fits the tone of the show perfectly and the alternative, period accurate music, would heavily clash with what's on screen.)
Warning: Sex scenes, sexual assault, and violence throughout."
