The Big Sacrifice Made for Shogun's FX Miniseries, Explained
Despite Shogun's brilliance, it had to sacrifice an important part of the original novel to be adapted for television.
FX's Shogun is already one of the biggest TV hits of the year, holding a near perfect Rotten Tomatoes score and having broken the record as the platform's most-viewed debut series. The show adapts James Clavell's novel of the same name, a 1300-page epic that explores the unforeseen consequences when an English sailor shipwrecks into a Japan on the brink of war in 1600.
