Finished the fifth season a week ago. On the whole, the series was excellent. Best TV series I've ever seen, though admittedly I haven't seen many.

I figured even a nationalistic Brit would like this show, since like 90% of the actors were taught at that London acting school


Do you decide how good TV shows are by the nationality of the actors?

Nope, I didn't know most of the actors were Brits until well after I had finished watching. Well written, very well acted, great show. I just figured their nationality would endear you to the show.

Believe it or not, the majority black cast turned off A LOT of people during the run of the show.


It truly was the Red Tails of the small screen.
