Set in 1814, Taboo follows James Keziah Delaney, a man who has been to the ends of the earth and comes back irrevocably changed. Believed to be long dead, he returns home to London from Africa to inherit what is left of his father's shipping empire and rebuild a life for himself. But his father's legacy is a poisoned chalice, and with enemies lurking in every dark corner, James must navigate increasingly complex territories to avoid his own death sentence. Encircled by conspiracy, murder and betrayal, a dark family mystery unfolds in a combustible tale of love and treachery.
Taboo is created by Steven Knight with Tom Hardy and Chips Hardy, who is also the show’s consulting producer. Executive producers are Ridley Scott and Kate Crowe for Scott Free, Tom Hardy and Dean Baker for Hardy Son & Baker, and Steven Knight, with Timothy Bricknell producing. Taboo is directed by Kristoffer Nyholm (Eps. 1-4) and Anders Engström (Eps. 5-8), and reunites Hardy and Knight for their third collaboration following Locke and Peaky Blinders.

I love that unlike most big Hollywood actors, Tom Hardy still does smaller projects and television shows.
+Crichjo32 It's all about the work. He was great in "Peaky Blinders".
it shows his passion for acting. the art and not the glamour that comes with.
meanwhile Tony Stark keeps playing Robert Downey Jr. again and again and again. Should let it go and do something else like when he was young
not the only one. most likely a 8-10 episode season because it's too much money to get him unless it's his own work n no one wanted the script.
How does this seem like a "small project". Its not as if this is a indie film lol
Tom Hardy uses a different voice for every character he plays. Pretty damn impressive
And accent too
Mini series about a Tom Hardy acted out character taking on the East India Company? Fuck it, I'm already sold!
+Electricladyland1994 Lol, That's what I said to myself.
+Mohammed Ali Fazal Bruh, I just said the same thing...LOL...I texted my friend the video and said the same thing, too.
+B Pierre Lol. I am gonna do the same, now. :D
This show demanded and deserved more viewership. Truly magnificent and sumptuous show. The money spent is in the production. Discover it, people.
Ah --but now all of what it deserved back then in 2017 is happening - good things do come to those who wait. Tom is being recognized now and with good reason huh?
FYI it's gettng a 2nd season soon and I don't think it's anywhere near being unpopular. Rank ~500 on IMDB is something, though it might not seem to be.
This man. He wears coats like A BOSS.
+toddspal Because he is THE boss.
He really does...mad max......bane......James Delaney......and each coat is so different
tom hardy & Leonardo DiCaprio are the two best actors in the game those guys can play anything
+1
+2
+Drew T anything? only thing DiCaprio can do is scream!
shutter island was consider scream
shutter island was consider scream
Tom Hardy is GOAT
+mfchimichanga Kkkkkkkkkkkkkk
+mfchimichanga As am I.........
+Andy Hardy Nope lol
I am in agreement with that.
And to think it all started in Hawaii , the plan to take over the world.
Preview was great, but the music at the end was a really bad choice.
I was going to say the very same thing
Won't you bitch about it some more I'm sure FX cares... kinda petty thing to cry about, but I guess that your thing
+Patrick Hogan i thought the same
trudat
+LORDE OWS stop crying bb boi
This show is really compelling. The setting, the mood, Tom Hardy's performance, it all adds up to much more than the sum of its parts.
Pleasw make season 2, I'm crying
This may be the best show on TV in the past 10 years. So well done.
Tom Hardy is the best actor under 50 on the planet. His range is incredible and he takes his craft extremely seriously. For those who haven't seen him in Bronson, Peaky Blinders, Locke, The Take, The Drop and Warrior you will see the range I'm talking about. LOVE HIM
I've seen him in Bronson, The Drop, Mad Max, and The Revenant. He is pretty incredible, and markets himself well. I just hope he doesn't do the whole SJW PC preachy thing those in Hollywood are doing these days. I've almost checked out Locke a few times because it's free on Prime, but on paper it sounds boring. Although I'm sure he a creates a compelling character as always. I'll have to check out the others you mentioned as well.
lol "SJW"
Bone Headed WTF are you talking about, and which actor's or actresses are you refering to, and what does politics have to do with any of this.
John Ude Where have you been for the last year or so? Instead of acting out like an indignant little bitch, why not just do some research...
Bone Headed Why should I care about what people on college campuses think, when their are very much more bigger thing's than that like running the country and putting people's lives at risk for instance, and what again does politics have to do with any of this.
Love how he says: "and I do know the evil that you do because I was once part of it."
This show was amazing. Great characters, dark, gritty, unapologetic, full of twists. I'm looking forward to season 2. I hope Tom Hardy decides to build more of a strong relationship between james and lorna. There's something there at least from her side that was working its way but never surfaced.
Yes of course there's an attraction there; she has her ways as an actress she uses in her craft in the story but also there is a deceptiveness there; why would she marry such an older man with such wealth knowing she would end up with it? Then she shows up as soon as the son reappears and holy - what a son!!!! She'd have to be dead not to react...lol. Of course this story is continuing - I will address the finally waited upon incestuous scene - notice how the act itself just wasn't - I mean Tom was acting his absolute disconnection - the torment of his spirit within - there was no joy, satisfaction nor release - she on the other hand her finally letting go by murdering the husband???? Hmmmm just not - I have no adjective to describe the psychological "happening of that moment of turmoil". Now we need to wait and see! Thanks.
One of my all-time favorite tv characters....dying for a second series....such a strangely unique show....James Delaney is mesmerizing....
Tom Hardy pulls yet a new voice out of his bag of tricks!
Legend was insanity... Acting level: fucking way over 9000
FX just keeps putting out the greatest shows I’ve come to notice. Most of FXs big shows are iconic to everyone, Sons of anarchy, Justified, Always sunny, Archer, AHS. And probably more
I will agree with you up to one point. If you notice the commercials with every series there are all American shows. Never did they play Taboos commercials at the time I watched it 2 yrs. ago!!! If we could view other series by the commercials why not Tom's series. That's my ? I believe I have formed my own opinion and will keep it to myself. With Netflix now he's being better served. Thanks.
This show was too good to not be continued. Even if it didn’t make the numbers they wanted in the beginning they had to know what masterpiece it is. And what can I say about Tom Hardy, another masterclass as always. So effortless and gritty with it, almost like all his characters are just different personalities of his and I’m not even gonna get into his range. But great actors perform well only when interacting with other great actors, I hated the sisters husband and even herself which means they played it perfectly.
There is a 2nd season coming, don't know when.
@@brandothecatmeow don’t play games with me man, are you sure? I googled it a while back, right after finishing the first and saw that there were no plans of making a 2nd. Could be you’re right, things might’ve changed
@@fantasma8253 as of May 2022 there is a supposed 2nd season coming. Screenrant had a article on it.
There will be 2nd season for sure. Hardy teased it on his instagram few months ago.
Melikey. First, two great seasons of Peaky Blinders and now this. Is tele trying to reclaim my curiosity?
It feel good when i see that you've dedicate not just an actor but a director also its rare when you see that ridley scott is genius
HUGE TOM HARDY FAN, HES BRILLIANT. SEEN ALL OF HIS PERFORMANCES, THIS LOOKS SO DAMN GOOD CANT WAIT
Must watch this. Huge Tom Hardy fan.
A million times YES!!! Love this show and Tom Hardy kills it in this role!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Hell yeah. After seeing his acting chops, amongst other things... in Bronson. He has proved he is a top notch actor. So far he has delivered a damn good performance, but he obviously shines in these historical types of shows/movies. You can count me in on this series!
This show is so well done. Tom Hardy is convincing as this guy. I'm seeing words about a definite season 2. Please come on, we are all waiting!!
Came here to say this! When is season 2 coming? 😫😆
Watched the first episode while I was in London and WOW, what a great series to bring to the US. Cheers FX! This will be the Best Tv Series in 2017 no question about it. Tom Hardy plays his best role to date. Great Great Great job on the show. I'll be watching every week 'Hooked'
TABOO - Best thing on TV. TOM HARDY - One of the best actors around. Can't wait for more.
Bring on season 2
You had me at Tom Hardy, he's the best actor out there along with Jake Gyllenhaal, and Leonardo Dicaprio
may I add Cillian Murphy
And matthew mcconaughey he's been doing amazing lately
fax
Lol wrong on so many levels
When I first sat and began watching this series by Tom I wasn't familiar with all of his work. After watching this I must admit to being inclined to see his full range of talents and that "aura" this intensity he exudes. While the other scripts, writers and ensemble on the sets he shared and worked in the past this one has all of what encompasses what we humans find fascinating, exciting, scary and tempting. Similar to what we often live with - a duality within. From the set design, the exact details of the era, the darkness of England at that time and the taking over of Vancouver also at that time;.from the clever script/writers which includes the behind the scenes and in front of the camera's huge talent being shared with all of us. From the deprivation to the exquisite tenderness of some moments. A constant ride never truly letting us in fully as to what will or could happen next. Watching this as I said the first time, I was able to follow and let myself go - without judgement or restraint. Looking forward to Season 2. Bravo to all concerned. A friend.
Dude is hardcore to the max bro 😎
Have you had a chance to check on his other work? Tom is a phenomenal actor, especially in Bronson (2008).
Look. Tom has 50 films. There are Oscar winners. Tom is a very talented actor.❤
Nice breakdown, I thoroughly agree with you
i will watch any of tom hardy from now on. he's beast!
Thank you, Tom Hardy! I've been waiting on this.
Fucking dope! Now get us Peaky Blinders S3 BBC
+Mkss Anudeep Yesss. I need more Peaky!
Peaky Fookin blinders mate! I love saying it with a British accent lol
FX is kicking AMC's ass right now
Eh not quite man you can't forget mad men, walking dead, breaking bad better call Saul
+Abdul Sesay not to mention into the badlands and fear the walking dead. AMC is killing it
Without Mad Men or Breaking Bad , Amc doesn't have any quality. sure the walking dead does big numbers but when its all said and done , we know it's garbage , it's fluff , it's mindless . I'd much rather watch a show like Mr.Robot, now that is good television.
+Abdul Sesay He said "right now". Mad Men and Breaking Bad both finished long ago and even at the time, they were the only two great shows on the network. Walking Dead has become formulaic and tired in it's past few seasons. The only good one worth notice is Better Call Saul. FX (including FXX) is currently one of the top tv powerhouses, and even Netflix is above AMC in terms of quality series. They have It's Always Sunny, The Americans, Fargo, The Strain, Archer, You're The Worst, Baskets, Man Seeking Woman, and American Horror Story with Taboo and Atlanta coming up, showing lots of promise.
Considering the glory days of Breaking Bad and Mad Men are gone and all they have left is Better Call Saul, it's not that hard to "kick AMC's ass" right now. Unless you actually consider TWD quality television. It's entertaining to watch at the very least but by no means in the same league as top tier television shows.
Great visuals, character-actors, writing, and on top of this all the mesmerizing Tom Hardy; count me in!!
My name is Tom Hardy, and after many years in Africa, i have returned to my city with only one goal, to be a total badass.
Love this guy, keeps giving amazing roles and doesn't drop a beat.
A superb series with unremitting entwining of time and place seen through a glass darkly. There isn't a single character who isn't tainted by the devil and all the minor characters are sucked into the dark doings of the evil protagonists. Tom Hardy plays James Delaney magnificently and we must admire his strength and guile, even if he does use dark powers, but, in spite of this, hate him or loathe him, you just can't like him.
Tom Hardy deserves every acting award there is, i mean the man is just sooo believable.
He should invite Cillian Murphy over as a recurring character, so they can be best TV buds.
They are awesome together. I'm assuming you watch Peaky Blinders lol!
besides peaky blinders they were also in inception, dunkirk and the dark knight rises together!
@@protestingwithjimmy they are both in Inception movie too
Not that I'm disagreeing with you but Cillian is the main character which he deserves so it stands to reason that Tom has his own too. These are respectively different themes and stories which is how it should be. While I have said this - I'm open to the idea of a collaboration - but only these two have the power to decide and put worth. Thanks.
LOOKS GREAT! Tom Hardy is one of the best actors around.
Tom Hardy..... one of the greatest actors alive!!!!!!
Tom Hardy! The best thing in cinema today. I love you and admire your talent❤❤❤
A masterpiece! ... why we have never seen a second season of this show, defies understanding.
It's now on DVD, season 2.
@@dennishuffman785 DVD??....DVD?? Did it also come out on eight track and Beta-max? lol I haven't used a DVD player in almost 8 years. But, thanks anyway.
@@rw9207 Yes it did come out on DVD I have the first season and am waiting for delivery of second season didn't realize it it was that old but enjoyed it, very mysterious. I prefer DVD format.
@@dennishuffman785 it isn't out yet, man. You got scammed, sadly

Tom, when are you going to start working on season two? There are so many of your viewers that want to know if you are going to even do a season two. Please do not keep us waiting any longer...it's been two years already! I keep watching the first season over and over and there are just so many times you can do that, so please, let us know, one way or another if you are going to continue this show, TABOO!

This show is SICK...isn't it?....you're addicted....just like me......Tom's portrayal of Delaney is OFF THE CHAINS......I KNOW...... for now,this show is still an under the radar,low key, secret.....but people like u and me....boy oh boy.....WE KNOW........they BETTER make series 2

Malek Ahmed I haven't seen enough of Leos films to say if he is one of the best
+YT Channel I'd agree and also Michael Fassbender, Ryan Gosling, and Joseph Gordon Levitt.
