How Dare You Cancel This?!
25 December 2019
Hulu needs to add a warning label for canceled shows. I decided to watch this random show, only to get utterly hooked and subsequently discover that it was canceled.

This show is different. Since the characters face life or death, honor or duty type scenarios there is a deepness and a darkness that you don't always find. But unlike some of the other dark historical dramas, there is a more humanistic element. It feels like real people, real damaged and imperfect people. The characters, so many of them, were all intriguingly complex and dynamic. Perhaps that was the due of the amazing actors. Everything about them made me look for more, curious and drawn in. I found myself yelling at the screen, going from cheering to jeering in a second. And crying a lot.

Now I'm hanging on a perpetual cliff with no outlet for this frustration. I'm just dangling here, waiting for a resolution that will never come. I vote the creaters of canceled shows write a book or something. Seriously.

Time to jump I guess, goodbye cruel world.
