I'm hoping Shogun sets a trend of massively expensive historical epics.Yeh literally the only thing it has going for it is Anthony Hopkins, trailer looks proper budget. Peacock making it doesn't inspire faith either.
Someone needs to make a new Rome show, still annoyed at how the HBO/BBC one ended. If they just make something like that again but with today's production standards... it would surely be TV gold.
I'm genuinely surprised how the general audience had gone for it as historical (at least non-American "history") and subtitled stuff doesn't usually find an audience in the US.
