“The stories are winding, but powerful. The writing is downright poetic. Steve’s voice runs the range for jocular to terrifying to disturbingly sexy, sometimes in the same paragraph. I would listen to this man read the phone book, if they still made those. Volume mixing is too quiet in the early seasons (something I’ve noticed with a few Rusty Quill shows) but seems to have gotten better.
Love the critique from folks who complain about “wokeness” and “neo-Maoism” in a setting based on historical context where there were, in fact, people of different races and orientations and, terror of terrors, people trying to unionise against horrifically dangerous and exploitative working conditions 😱. We certainly can’t have THAT represented. Think of the children! Not the ones in the mines though, the other ones.”
