Strange Empire Review

I've recently gotten into a new show on Netflix, called Strange Empire. I don't normally care for the kind of 'cowboy vs. indian' style show, but this one is actually very good.

The basic premise of the show is that travelers are ambushed by 'indians', and all the men killed. This forces the women to accept help from a seedy man that had previous been burned by them. The acting is great, and the characters' personalities are both unique and perfect for the show.

I would recommend this for an adult audience though. The setting is Jamestown, where a whore house has been set up. While the plot doesn't revolve around this, it is one of the more base structures of it. The plot is more character based, which is what I enjoy.

Overall, it's a good show that does not rely on sketchy setting or nature problems, but rather on human problems. There's no fantasy or sci-fi, and is very much on the realistic side. Just a warning, there is adult scenes, including violence and partial nudity.
