I've said it before on these boards but I'll repeat it now: Lord Toranaga and Vito Corleone are two of my favorite fictional characters (they're very similar in their ways).

I have the DVD collection of "Shogun" and last watched it about six months ago. It was every bit as good as what I remember from when it originally aired on tv in the early 80's.

BTW - You can edit out the "ch" in the thread title (just go in and edit the post).
