The Collection

Although I found the first episode a little heavy going I was glad I stuck with it and found with each episode, I became more and more entranced with this intriguing tale. It was beautifully filmed and sensitively acted by a first rate cast. The costumes were exquisite and the period styling a sheer joy to observe. It had an upstairs downstairs quality similar to that of Downton Abbey, with story lines being developed in both camps. Each episode drove the story forward nicely adding layers of intrigue as as the plot thickened so the characters gradually became increasingly more interesting as the season progressed. By the end of Episode 8 I was completely hooked and left longing to learn more. I can't wait for season 2.

To say that I cannot wait for Season 2 would be an understatement. I NEED to know what happens to these characters. I want to see the beautifully shot scenes with gorgeous costumes and Paris in the background.

Where is Season 2? The complexity of characters and the way the story weaves in and around them is addictive. #Amazon what are you waiting for? I love historical drama/fiction. This is so wonderfully done and nuanced that I felt that I had to write this review. I want more people to see it and I want to see more of it!

This the most beautifully written and and magnificently shot show. I was sucked in immediately to the era and to the story of this deliciously dysfunctional family. Eye candy everywhere you look, the fashion, the actors, the sets... not to mention all the mystery, intrigue and love... you will not get up till you watch it all! Who can resist Frances de la Tour? Or Mamie Gummer. Richard Coyle's Paul Sabine is sublime, and I could watch Tom Riley endlessly. The performances here are stellar! Oliver Goldstick has created yet again another brilliant masterpiece. I can hardly wait to see what you come up with next.Bravo Amazon Prime. Probably your best show yet!

I'm not an expert or have has an idea about the fashion history at that era, but has to say that this series attracted me from first episode and I'm eager to see more.

There are some matters that I didn't get to understand esp. About the family history and their relation to the world war but I guess it'll show in the coming episodes...

I don't find any likeness between this series and downton Abby ..it doesn't have same spirit or environment..we don't see servants, lavish life for the family that story talking about..

I'm excited to see what the wasted brother will come to in fashion and design ..

Love it...keep on

It's Masterpiece hitting another solid triple. I know nothing about fashion, or France, or the post WWII world. Great story and great acting. I, actually, found most of the characters to be interesting. Just enjoy it, as I did.
