@Fish i agree :) since this is one of my favorite books, i just loved how they adapted. and now they can go on with the next books ;)
Season 1 was just amazing. Can't say anything bad about it.
Hopefully season 2 can continue with the same level of quality, since the book has now been fully adapted and they will have to make up their own story now.
<“Shōgun” may be returning for a second season as star and producer Hiroyuki Sanada has signed a deal with FX to return as Lord Yoshii Toranaga in the Japan-set historical epic.>

Would it be possible to lose the stripey o in the title? This show doesn't show up in the search results because of it.
