If Hiroyuki Sanada doesn't win an Emmy for his portrayal of Toranaga, there is no justice in Hollywood. I liked him The Last Samurai and John Wick, but dude can act and not just do action flicks!

I thought he looked like a young Russell Crowe + young Gerard Butler

I'm hoping there will be some excuse for Lea Solonga to sing!

Thank you!! I was wracking my brain!

There is a folk song about the Diggers Revolt in 1649 called The World Turned Upside Down, long before LMM came up with the lyric for Hamilton. And there's a chapter in ABOSAA titled The World Turned Upside Down, as well. :) Regarding Lexington and Concord, in the book, in the early morning hours, Roger and Bree have a conversation about it, with Bree reciting The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere, and Roger stating he would give anything to be there right then, instead of tucked away on the Ridge

IKR? I had to look up the real Ward McAlister, who was born in Savannah, GA. I guess Savannah's accents have changed in 140 years? Because I know a blue blood from Savannah, and neither she nor her parents talk like that.

make it so!

curse this show for making me cry before I finish my coffee

I didn't notice that. i'm glad i didn't.

i am not caffeinated enough for this episode this morning. what the hell was that I just watched (just finished the kitchen scene)

I just binged watched over the holiday - I think Mark greatly benefited by being in the same workroom with Arielle. Her presence and her work that he saw upped his output/work. I think she would've won if they'd been in their own workshops.

EPix has this now, releasing Season 1 one episode at a time on Sunday's at 8 EDT. I don't know if they'll carry Season 2. I am caught up to S1E4, really enjoying it! It's a good update of 3 Days of the Condor.
