Don’t forget about the original film adaptation of this from the early 1990's. It was quite well done and there’s a BR release of it coming up soon. Natasha Richardson, Robert Duvall, Faye Dunaway and a score by Ryuichi Sakamoto. What’s not to like?

Othello is the Shakespere of this administration.

They want to take the country back to 1717 so it’s in line with their thinking.

It’s worth pointing out that a couple few have followed the instructions in “The Manual” and have made more money from it than I ever will earn.

Small sample, a friend of the family joined the army a few years back.

I found the way that it was derivative to be incredibly distracting. Oh, that’s the shot from Back to the Future of the family at the table and so on endlessly. I would have preferred if the show was just set in the 1980's, it’s just tired easter eggs taken to a ridiculous level.
