Wu-Tang: An American Saga

All I can say is "yes". Yes yes yes. Watch this. It will make you a smarter person. I'd say 11 stars. Stop watching stupid reality television and watch this.

Firstly you don't need to be a hip hop fan to enjoy this show. I'm English, I'm white and I'm over 50 so I'm probably as far removed from the "stereotypical" target demographic you can get. This show is brilliant, it's a genuine drama that shows just how hard it must be to actually break through even if you have the talent the members of Wu-Tang Clan have.

Obviously I've no idea how close to the truth this story is, what's been left out or what's been added in creatively to enhance the overall story. But if even half of this is true then it's an incredible story.

The show doesn't have a single bad actor in it, everyone brings the character they play to life and despite the fact that at the start of the show the individuals aren't exactly "good" you get the sense that the criminal activities were more of a situation of circumstance rather than wanting to be gangsters.

You can tell I like this show, I know how enthusiastic I must sound but trust me it's worth the hype. I'm just at the end of season 2 and I truly hope we get another season.

Let's hope the actors that have brought Wu-Tang Clan to the screen so brilliantly all go on the have huge careers.

Wow, just finished episode three and I gotta say, this show stands on it's own merits. Granted, its not The Wire but the story would be interesting whether or not it was the origin of Wu-Tang (artistic license aside). That being said, if you know your lore and the players on the board this show is nothing short of a treat. Will it reach a wider audience? Time will tell but I sure hope so.

Great show very entertaining . Not a fan of rap .

But a fan of great acted interesting dramas . Very interesting story of coming from low income families and making it a very competitive industry . The obstacles are many and some deadly but team work and some Chinese kungfu movies guide these street hustlers to success .

Wu-Tang's legacy is one of the best rap groups ever created (actually one of the best groups ever regardless of genre) and this show tells the amazing and powerful story of how they became the legends they are! You don't even have to be a fan to like this show but if you are then it's just that much better!
