Well…
I got emotional…
Tears ran down my face…
I flailed…
I screamed…
And that was just seeing Eva’s name on the opening credits.
It was absolutely fantastic. I can’t even say how much I loved it.
I’m still not quite over it, I keep running up and down with happiness.
Eva you never disappoint!

The look of the show: amazing!
The acting: the whole cast does an amazing job!
The story itself, though, I found a bit weak and very predictable. But I’m looking forward to the next episode, hoping the story will become a bit more complex, a bit more challenging toward the audience.

I’ve now watched it three times tonight because it was just far too perfect. Vanessa is such a brilliant character, I’m in love with her already. Eva could not play her any better. She’s just so strong and mysterious yet she has this vulnerability and sweetness to her that I absolutely love. I’m so excited for the next episode!

Quiet good pilot…a bit weird and quick camera movement at times, but acting and visuals are good.
@Kev…you can watch it even from paris.

It’s not just the acting that makes this series great; it’s also the clothing and garments and the early 1900 setting that add to the significance of the show..Of course, Eva and all others are great in their roles..
