You all know you want his hat. Time to bring back the Hardy hat. Anyone who can look intimidating wearing that hat is someone to be scared of.

They did indeed use such language which was a bit of a shock, but then again it IS TV-MA so its not like people can get too bent out of shape about it.

Wife and I enjoyed it. The EI Trading Co. group is a cool adversary, but I think the ambitious husband guy is a little over the top. Would you really want to fuck with this guy? I mean, it seems like they have nice furniture and shit. Don't fuck with that guy.

Second episode not as strong as first but still pretty interesting. Yeah, the East India Trading Company vs The King vs Mad Max is cool as fuck

Husband is over the top but he views Mad Max as a savage negro, he even literally says it every episode. They seem broke as fuck from the first episode but kinda ok in the second, hard to say what the fuck is going on there. I really don't know whats going on with the hooker, the daughter, the boat, whatever

Don't know what it's like on FX but I download the U.K. version and a lot of fucks and a few American Inventors in it.

Xfinity On Demand left in all the fucks. I have it recording now on FX so I'll report back if they say it live. That would be amazing since they were also the first station to say and normalize prick, asshole, pussy, and shit. Most of those were just on the Shield.

I'm impressed how Stephen Graham has gone from the role of little Tommy from Snatch to formidable characters like Al Capone and now this Atticus.

He's definitely mastered the "this guy is pretty laughy but also seems like kind of a sociopath" technique.

Recorded version right from FX had two fucks before the first commercial break. This is an FX original so they are pushing the bounds of network TV again. I love it.

So the "Taboo" title really wasn't about his African spiritual practices, it was just about good ol' fashioned brother-fuckin'.

Well... For now. There's definitely some voodoo shit in his flashbacks/visions.

I thought I could hear some bits of Mycroft's voice in the Prince's. He was unrecognizable otherwise.

Yea, I saw that after posting; HOWEVER, they are still the first cable network to air someone saying fuck before midnight EST. That is pretty significant.

Oh, and it is also awesome that new episodes are shown just a few days after they air on BBC instead of waiting some retarded amount of months/years to get them.

This show is really good, between this, The Young Pope & Black Sails I am pretty fucking happy with TV at the moment. I don't want to blow my load too early, but I feel like this show has the potential to be big, maybe Breaking Bad big. The thing I see holding it back the most is the era, just not sure enough people dig 1814 England.
