Particularly if you are a fan of Jason Momoa, this show is worth checking out. If you like seeing examples of colonial-era British forces getting stood up to, frontiersmen doing frontier stuff, First Nations tribesmen doing their best to survive against European encroachment, and cool looking costumes and settings, then it's worth checking out. It's not for the faint of heart, however. The fights are violent and bloody and there is plenty of torture and abuse of women and PoC by Europeans.
The first season was awesome!!! The second and third seasons were ok but the series was left unfinished. Also the night scenes (which there were a lot of) were hard to see and know what was going on. There was was much more that they could have done to make this show better!
Very enjoyable. I was pleased with just about everything. I understood going into it, it was not a History Course at some University. So the inaccuracy didn't bother me. This is not a Documentary nor is it given the loosely labeled true story. Another common criticism was their accents. I didn't care about that either, I'm no linguist. People need to stop expecting an education from Hollywood and just relax and enjoy.
Unfortunately like so many other series it was canceled and canceled without an ending. That's my biggest issue. So if you haven't started watching, don't. You'll be left unfulfilled.

Frontier is an extremely entertaining show, as long as you don't compare it to other shows (i.e. GoT, Vikings, etc)! So what if the accents aren't great & it's not absolutely historically accurate, if you just turn your brain off and take it for what it is and that's an action packed thriller where Jason Momoa is terrific as the lead!
The first couple of seasons are good but the third season is anticlimactic. Here are the issues I have with the show:
1.The episodes mention the location of every scene but you'll have no idea otherwise.
2.Jason Momoa as charismatic as he is offers no character development like all characters. He justifies his character, the same can't be said for a few others.
3.the accents oh my god, the accents. The Spanish sailer in the third season and the French broker have especially disappointing dialogue deliveries.
4. The third season sucked balls. That's all I can say without spoiling it for the rest of you. I was hoping for some sort of plot but they just seemed to be winging it like the good ol' bollywood movies.
Bottomline: it's good enough to Netflix and chill

Did you know
- TriviaA central element in the story is the Hudson's Bay Company. This was one of three such enterprises of the British Empire; the other two being the British East India Company, which operated in and around the Indian subcontinent, and the Moscovy company, which focused on Russia and the region to the south, which includes modern day Iraq and Iran. The role of the colonies was to strengthen and enrich the British Empire, and these enterprises were created by the crown specifically for this dual purpose. The military element was there not only for protection of British interests, but for the enforcement of the will of the company and, by extension, the crown.
