Who Is Erin Carter? (2023)
Totally ridiculous
Episode after episode the show contains masses of violent scenes where a petite women fights off large men and women, sometimes even hoards of them. All she gets is a bit of nosebleed and a few scratches to the face. Finally she gets shot in the abdomen and after a little while gets up and fights off more people. Do they not have any proper medical advisors on this show? A gunshot wound with this location will hit the spleen with massive bleeding. Should it miss the spleen it will have perforated the gut causing peritonitis but she just walks on.
The other ridiculous thing is that there seem to be no consequences from the police despite her killing several people.
Legacy (2022)
Drama, culture and fashion
I binge watched this and got completely caught up. First it was the fashion that caught my eye. Then the family intrigues in an unfamiliar cultural surrounding. I found it very interesting to try to figure out the intricate family loyalties contra social requirements. Money talks is a lasting impression. Then comes the sino-japanese war and what it does to close family members and society in general. It was a bit difficult to understand the different political aspects of the pre communist era, but that is not really important to understand. You can enjoy watching the intriguing anyway.
Love stories with and without family approval or interference runs through the whole show. Business deals and political deals. People of principle and collaborators. It is all in here.
Do watch this! It is not as long as it seems. Both beginning and end of every episode has a recap.
The Gilded Age: Let the Tournament Begin (2022)
Goof?
At the end of this beautiful episode there is a street scene. All the carriages drive left side. Is this a goof or did NY have left side traffic at this time?
