It's a really lovely show. I had tried to watch it when it was first broadcast on PBS, but somehow it was not compelling enough and I somehow got the sense that the story would be insubstantial. I'm so happy I went back to the show and starting watching again. I didn't give the show enough of a try or sometimes it just happens this way. I remember my first attempt at seeing "The Wire" didn't work, but then a year later I went back to see what the rest of the American viewers and critics were raving about. Perhaps that show was very popular abroad, as well. Well, actually it must have been because the IMDb ratings reflect as such. The story-line for Indian Summers is compelling and the characters are definitely fascinating to follow. I did find all the major roles played very interesting. The locale is beautiful and one learns much about the history (political/cultural) of India during the time of British rule. I'm really looking forward to Season 2 which apparently will be available to view in a month or so (at least in my geographic location).
