In the last years of Victoria's reign, London is beset by the "Touched": people — mostly women — who suddenly manifest abnormal abilities, some charming, some very disturbing. Among them are Amalia True, a mysterious, quick-fisted widow, and Penance Adair, a brilliant young inventor. They are the champions of this new underclass, making a home for the Touched, while fighting the forces of… well, pretty much all the forces — to make room for those whom history as we know it has no place.
I had reservations of this at first. But after watching the first episode, I got interested. Then up to the final 2 episodes I was left on the edge of my seat with those surprising twists!
The Nevers wasn't a fantasy show, but rather a science fiction series that looked like a fantasy. How they did it was genius! I can't wait for the second half.
