I'm so grateful to Netflix for picking up this excellent series. I spent my professional career producing TV in Los Angeles, and The Untamed ranks up there with the greatest adaptations of any novel, including Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, and Lord of the Rings -- The Untamed has all the fan fave elements of all those other adaptations, with a delicious Sino flavor. The casting was right on the money... all the actors were excellent and profoundly moving. The two main stars are beautiful and charismatic. The music was spectacular. I've just downloaded the soundtrack on Spotify. The only dip in my enthusiasm came from the "scary monsters' that were portrayed in a mediocre way. Really wish they'd gone exclusively with CGI rather than mechanical mixed with some CGI. Over all though, I'm happy to be watching the entire series for a second time. I'm eager for Netflix or Amazon Prime to provide their American audiences with more Chinese dramas like this. Gee... I sure hope Netflix reads this!
