And Starz best production as for now. Everything here is great, the wonderful and well thought story with nicely told subplots, marvelous acting (Ian McShane and Rufus Sewell, I love the guys from now), the directing is not chaotic and you won't even for a second lose track of what's going on. Every minute of every episode was great and never bored me for a second. The soundtrack made by Trevor Morris is also exceptional, along with the opening and end credits, which I always watched just for the music (and I will probably buy the OST when it's released). In few words: Keep it going Starz and you will be a real oponent for Showtime and HBO.

Also, a great miniseries, one of the best.moreless

First off, I've seen only 4 episodes now. But what I have seen I have loved.
Good acting, good actors, great scenery, amazing plot, and enough dinamic to keep you watching.
First thing first. Actors are convincing, they play well and at some points I can't belive how much they fit the charactors. Sarah Parish (Regan Hamleigh) is so good at some scenes it makes me noxious i don't want to spoil so i won't say exacly why.
I'm surprised at a lot of spins with the plot they do.
And that rarely happens to me. It's all pretty much interesting and will keep you guessing , I guarantee that much. I really like this show to this point and right now I can say it's my favorite show of this summer.
I can only hope it will stay this way.moreless

"Perfect"

I personally think this was a great mini-series. I think it was well written and very well cast and acted as well. I really enjoyed it week to week. I hope there are many more made with as much enjoyment as this one had. It had mystery and excitement. I really liked it and I hope the ratings were good for it. The English were really a very blood thirsty gang of people. They were really as cruel and vengeful as the show made them out to be. And they were religious fanatics. I thought that Ian Mcshane did an excellent job although I am a little biased about him. I absolutley love him in Deadwood and continue to hate HBO for cancelling that series when they kept such other s**t shows. Back to Pillars of the Earth. It was a great mini-series hope everyone who watched enjoyed it as much as I did. Kudos Mr. Mcshane.moreless
