Mr. Selfridge recounts the real life story of the flamboyant and visionary American founder of Selfridge's, London's lavish department store. Set in 1909 London, when women were reveling in a new sense of freedom and modernity, it follows Harry Gordon Selfridge ('Mile a Minute Harry'), a man with a mission to make shopping as thrilling as sex. Pioneering and reckless, with an almost manic energy, Harry created a theater of retail where any topic or trend that was new, exciting, entertaining - or just eccentric - was showcased.

Started well. Think it went downhill as it went on. But started very very well

First few episodes were good but after that became extremely boring. I think they lacked proper story

It’s fantastic, very similar to The Paradise. I’m not sure which I like better, but I do love Jeremy Piven.

I found this quite uninteresting, didn’t quite grip me.

It was ok at the start, but later seasons really dropped off. Watch The Paradise instead.

Period drama about a megalomaniac. It was never my favourite thing, I'm biased towards english period dramas though

It’s a fine period dramady for PBS fans

Intriguing and draws you in nicely.

Naah. Not that good.
