Dickinson

I came for Hailee Steinfeld and I stayed for the quality; bold, inspirational, "old" but that surrounds you to also feel in the present, I loved the realities in Emily's mind, sometimes they are uncomfortable but interesting.

I'm normally so good with words. It's historical but accessible. It's poignant but laugh out loud funny. It teaches you something about humanity. It connects you to a bygone era in a way that's rich, not a soup of facts and names. It's well written, well acted, well directed. It's a good deed, keeping alive a famous poet, but in a way that's relatable. It's like Hamilton and Arrested Development, a new type of of medium. A new art form. I'm LOSING MY MIND. It's so good. Even if you think you hate poetry, don't you see? Poetry is life! Everything in the world is poetry to the discerning. Teaching us a discerning viewpoint is the purpose of any great art. This show does that.

The series is stupendous. I like how it connects well with modern times although its a certain period series.

Everyone in the series have performed decently. It should be noted that this is not an autobiography on Emily Dickinson. Her character & traits have been brought into a modern perspective but still keeping the rebel nature that she had in her period.

Hailee performed very well for her part and so have the other cast members. I look forward to more of this show.

I watch it and, re-watched it again. I understand this may not be for everyone. However, as far as myself, I wish there was more show like this. I enjoyed every character. I especially enjoyed the way Hailee Steinfeld portrayed Emily Dickenson.

This is not your typical "Cookie Cutter" series. For me; it was a very pleasant surprise. And yes, I am already looking forward to watching it again.

I wasn't sure about watching this simply because I'm not a lover of historical series. However from episode 1 Hailee Steinfeld's Emily had me hooked. It's fast and funny and quirky and there are only 2 people who could have taken this role: Steinfeld and Winona Ryder. Krakowski brings a fiery funny to it too and the rest of the cast are very able. I'm not interested in the life of Emily Dickinson, I just love the show for what it is.
