If you decide to get caught up in the beautiful landscapes, old castles, and vineyards you could still walk away from this show with a twinkle in your eye. The dark and gothic filter of this show makes it perfect for a rainy day, but I love to watch it at any time. The story line isn't difficult to follow and the scenes flow very well from character to character as you see the different story lines play out. The love can be felt between every character and their partner. A dang good show.
