設(shè)定有點意思。像是結(jié)界崩潰以后的哈利波特世界，人類和神奇動物共存。

狂歡節(jié)街上牛鬼蛇神橫行，難民們一波波逃離大陸，被拍死在沙灘上，影射歐洲難民潮不言而喻。

男主，蘇格蘭場的雷斯垂德，在調(diào)查一宗以難民為對象的連環(huán)殺人案，兇手被起名（開膛手）杰克。（福爾摩斯風(fēng)）

女主，難民出身，被賣到大戶人家做女傭。大戶人家干著非法的難民生意，有一個恨嫁的妹妹。盼星星盼月亮盼隔壁搬來一個達西先生，結(jié)果是羊頭人?。ㄟ@對本來是傲慢與偏見設(shè)定，但后來發(fā)展越來越呼嘯山莊了）

政府話事人，名義上叫總理，但是議會辯論怎么看都是英式的。（總理叫押沙龍，那么鐵定要悲劇羅？）

右翼反移民勢力在街頭鼓吹排外，在議會內(nèi)部密謀，暗潮洶涌，一觸即發(fā)。

而各路難民雖然表面上逆來順受，但黑暗背后似乎又在醞釀著什么。

導(dǎo)演的想象力和雄心壯志可見一斑，大有接班《權(quán)力的游戲》的架勢。

不過夜間場景太多而且多用自然光，不是OLED電視不開HDR的話黑乎乎一片很難看清。

名詞解釋：劇中生造了很多詞所以看起來頗費力，以下來自：

• Humans. You know them. Same as they ever were—greedy, prejudiced, vain, jealous, petty, scheming, and capable of incredible grace. （人類，沒啥要解釋的）
• Fae. Everyone who is not a human in this universe is referred to as a “creature” or, less kindly, “critch.” You’ll hear a number of nonhuman slurs on Carnival Row as it grapples with its central allegory of immigration and the refugee crisis. The fae folk, or faeries, are pretty recognizable for anyone with a passing familiarity with fantasy. Wings, ethereal beauty; you know how it goes. You may also hear them called “pix.”（pix，一切非人種族，包括flyer 精靈, black raven黑烏鴉之類）
• Fauns. You will also hear these creatures called “critch,” or the even more vulgar “puck.” The goat-legged, horn-headed folks are, with a few exceptions, of the serving class.（puck，牛頭人）
• The Pact. It might be a spoiler to tell you more about these folks, but suffice it to say that (1) they are the enemies of the fae, and (2) a homonym of their name is, perhaps, a clue to what kind of creatures this ruthless human force might be tied up with. They read onscreen as 19th-century Cossacks. (協(xié)約國，pix的敵人，類似哥薩克的設(shè)定）
