Elizabeth McGovern was in the Fox one, not BBC, well here in the USA it was Epix not Fox. But anyway your statement is confusing because you put it right when you started discussing the BBC version. She is in the modern day version but that is Fox/Epix, not BBC.

The promo package looks great, I’ve already seen it but might watch it again, it’s so good! :)

I watched one episode of the BBC version and it is not that exciting. 2 more parts to go but my vote right now is for the Fox version set today. Hopefully it won’t take forever for them to do a second season.

I’m not sure it’s really based on the original story but I do enjoy the way it’s more about a small group of people instead of trying to take on the entire world with the show. It reminds me a bit of The a Night Eats the World in that regard. It’s definitely not for those that want big budget violence and CGI. Reviews I read compared it to The Walking Dead in a way because that show also focuses on the interaction of the survivors and what it’s like from their point of view. This one has got much better ratings then the BBC version which seems to have been panned universally but I will probably watch it anyway when I’m done with this version. On IMDB most of the comments give kudos to the Fox version for making a show based in Europe instead of America which I found kind of funny but I’m not particular about where the shows I watch are based.

I couldn’t find either of these available when I searched and the fact they have the same name is making the search results really confusing so pretty please with whipped cream and cherries on top? I’m dying to see either show but especially the Fox version.

Yeah,
about that. Well, it’s on its way. It looks like it was released in Africa and Europe in October or maybe November? But not here in the US yet as far as I can tell. But, you might have an email in your inbox with more details. For anyone else that is curious… I’m sure it’ll be out soon. Keep your fingers crossed!!
