Starting to hit its stride. Still underwhlmed by the younger actors. When the script is language-focused it's amazing. Catching a few moments that are clearly in meter/verse; there should be more.
Oh yes, the meter/verse is so much more evident from the mouth of Ian McShane (not much of a surprise there), and is so very lovely -- I agree that there should be more of it. I also love that there are those guards who are clearly the Shakespearean comic relief. I wonder how many "average" watchers are noticing these things? I wonder what ratings it's getting with "average" watchers, come to think of it. Any idea how it's doing?
