It makes absolutely no sense from a quality perspective to invent a second season for Shogun and would do nothing but harm what was a perfect season of television. Clavell wrote other books in his Asian Saga. Adapt one of them. A second season would also undermine some of what was so good about these 10 episodes. There’s nothing more to say. I hope this second season idea is one coming from critics and not something being seriously considered by the network.

I'd like to think that whatever they do, they'll make their decision based on respect for the material and the audience. I'd also prefer they try to adapt one of the other books if this is to continue but I'll keep my mind open about it, they've at least earned my admiration and respect for this series.
