1899

A slow boat to nowhere, that's the kindest thing I can think of to say about 1899. A mystery thriller minus the thrills, that's becalmed from the get go and doesn't improve over the poorly navigated, first two episodes. Its a shame too, as a ton of Euro's were spent on this production. Its therefore unsurprising, that in terms of settings, costumes and atmosphere, this show is spectacular. Unfortunately, its an exquisite banquette setting, where little to nothing is served to the hungry v…

Good story, good acting, good directing but unfortunately as with all shows lately because of woke propaganda I can not and will not give it better score. Possibly one of the best shows in last years ruined by propaganda. Why does every story, every tv show or movie today have to have this woke propaganda?

**Pointless** It's supposed to be a slow-burn, atmospheric mystery thriller. It is slow, alright; and there is some mystery, albeit not intriguing. Set design, camera, lighting, and fx get the atmospheric bit done; sound and music are well selected, too. Costume is OK, acting good. We're on water, and the (alchemist) earth symbol is everywhere.

You gotta stick it out to the end... as it is well worth it. The worst thing, is that season 2 has been cancelled. This series could really have gone somewhere! The production values are amazing and the the story is very intricately woven. Plus characters are totally believable... i.e.; brilliant acting. Why is it the good shows get cancelled and the rubbish ones last for 10 seasons :O(

It's a good TV series. Things are a bit confusing at times and it's filmed a lot in low light. The character interactions are great. Beautiful sets. I would love to have seen Season 2 and 3
