10/02/2019 Season 1 was the best. After...everything on the show was underwritten and turned "Poldark" into 'soap" opera See more 04/16/2019 Perfectly crafted period drama. Great production quality. See more 02/02/2019 I am hooked! Besotted! Slayed! Overwhelmed! Aidan and Eleanor and the cast are tremendous. And I love the score and Cornwall scenery. See more 11/18/2018 First episodes started out wonderfully. The characters were well formed and Ross had a strong sense of integrity and care for people regardless of station but by episode 4 and on, the show destroyed all morality in his character and he made choice after choice that didn't reflect the beliefs the same character stood for in the starting episodes. See more 10/29/2018 It has been a long time since I fell so madly in love with a series. By far, worthy of my precious time. The breathtaking cinematography, talented actors/actresses and beautifully written. I am totally invested. LOVE IT! See more 04/07/2018 BEST miniseries I've ever had the pleasure of seeing....aiden turner is a sight for Sore eyes that's for sure! Go on....watch it....you'll be ever so pleased you did!!
