fx Taboo (Ridley Scott, Tom Hardy mini-series)

[Zathras5]

Set in 1814, Taboo follows James Keziah Delaney, a man who has been to the ends of the earth and comes back irrevocably changed. Believed to be long dead, he returns home to London from Africa to inherit what is left of his father's shipping empire and rebuild a life for himself. But his father's legacy is a poisoned chalice, and with enemies lurking in every dark corner, James must navigate increasingly complex territories to avoid his own death sentence. Encircled by conspiracy, murder, and betrayal, a dark family mystery unfolds in a combustible tale of love and treachery.

 

From Tom Hardy, Ridley Scott and Steven Knight

Airing in 2017... that's quite some time away to be advertising a series!

Where's it say 2017? I can't find a release date anywhere.

IMBD says 2016, web says 2017, old news say 2016...

Well, just caught up with episode 1

 

Tom Hardy is spot on, every time he is on screen, it gets tense!

I'm liking it so far.

Tom Hardy is awesome but I'm not that into the show yet though.

 

Did episode 3 air? I can't find it on demand.

3 and 4 have aired.

 

I've gotten to 2.

 

While Hardy's acting is exceptional, sometimes I feel the plot is lacking.
