Veltigar Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 This looks interesting, although I haven't really heard anything positive about SoA. I'm a little bit worried that the lead is new to acting. I hope that he's closer to Travis Fimmel (who was excellent right of the bat as Ragnar) than to that atrocious Italian guy they have playing Marco Polo on Netflix.

aeu Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Also: Oh,he's acting in his own work again...bad sign. Why? Otto was one of the few things that worked in the latter seasons of SoA. To me, the bad sign is casting Katey Sagal, as Red Snow said. Excited above Matthew Rhys though. Never seen him anywhere else but he is unbelievable in Americans.

Elder Sister Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Eh. I'll check this out, but all of the signs point to another show that was like the last season of SoA, which was truly and horribly dull. Sutter acting in it, the return of Katey Sagal...ugh, ugh, ugh. I like the premise, so I hope I'm surprised by how great it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini Sigil Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 I hate to be Ned Negative.... but I have zero faith in Kurt Sutter... he seemed to have lost his mind,,, those "Anarchy Afterwards" talkshows were hilariously awful.... and Sutter just appeared to be guano psychotic... and Katie Segal in a period piece?...it reminds me of the Family Guy bit where Kurt Cameron played Jean Valjean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Katey Sagel would occasionally look at Sutter like he'd lost his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandred torgridson Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Despite what some might say I greatly enjoyed SoA and also The Shield. Both of them are among my top 10 series of all time with SoA maybe even in my Top 5. Sutter making a medieval drama series is some fantastic news to me. I for one expect great things.

red snow Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Why? Otto was one of the few things that worked in the latter seasons of SoA. To me, the bad sign is casting Katey Sagal, as Red Snow said. Excited above Matthew Rhys though. Never seen him anywhere else but he is unbelievable in Americans. He didn't exactly say much in those latter seasons or feature heavily. If he's the silent executioner we're in for a treat though. There are going to have to be rave reviews of this to get me to touch this show though. Even then I'll be cautious given SoA - which besides season 3 - wasn't the worst thing I've ever watched (actually fine) but I really have to be more selective about what I watch. Which is good as it's due to the abundance of great TV rather than me complaining how much time I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durckad Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 My god does that look bland. Nothing in that trailer tells me what this is supposed to be about other than swords and executioners and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mexal Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 It was 30s and a teaser. I'll wait til a full trailer comes up and I can understand a bit more what's going on. Nothing in there excites me but I didn't really expect it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Pepper Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I want to be interested in this show, but then Katey Segal pops up and it's like a mood killer. Nothing against her acting, I'm just not ready to see her again in anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorral Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Hmmm. Wonder if Kurt Sutter read an abstract of A Great and Terrible King: Edward I and the Forging of Britain by Marc Morris. In any case I have no sense that Sutter has a clue about what the middle ages were, anywhere, and not just in England or Wales. Or gives a damn, really. He just wants to jump on a perceived bandwagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
