It is the language, I do not understand why folks have to take a perfectly good story and ruin it will, cursing GOD, and it is offensive, angry and hateful language and should not be allowed. The story is very good, you are watching and getting involved in the story, there is a party scene and the people are introduced to these characters, then men ride up on this family and the women come out with their guns and then they decide it is OK to take the LORDS name in vein, that is wrong, and in my book, will never watch this show ever again, or recommend it. It might take a little more talent to find words to describe feeling besides cursing the creator of the universe. It is WRONG!!! On any show, it has no place in our vocabulary.

the hair is supposed to be worn up not down during the day with a center part. The head must be covered when outside. Dresses during the day had a high neckline not this off the shoulders bust spilling out look. Evening dresses had low necklines but not that low. Really people you should have done better research! Plus the costume (wardrobe) designer should have known better! There is a lot of photographic evidence, books, and museums that you can go to, to get the answers. If you want it done right hire the people who eat sleep breathe this stuff every weekend during the summer. You make us look bad... sure the hobby is expensive however we do put a lot of time and effort into researching images of period dresses, materials, sewing techniques, head ware (hats & bonnets) and drafting patterns from the original dresses. Some of these dresses are pure eye candy, yes we metaphorically drool over exquisite dresses and gorgeous fabrics. It takes me at least SIX MONTHS to sew one of my dresses.

I was amused while watching it. I think the clothes, the landscape, the buildings were really good, just how I would imagine them to be in this age. I loved the story, the characters. The actors gave a very amusing act. I recommend it for everyone, and I'm really looking forward to seeing the whole series. The end is shocking. What I really loved was the conversations, the characters made their best on those. If you are looking for a show in this period of time, you have to take a look at it. I'm not a history teacher, but found it pretty correct. Sorry for the mistakes I could have made while writing this, I'm not English. I hope I gave you mood to watch this pilot, and I hope Amazon will order the entire show.
