About the Program

The Forsyte Saga

Based on the classic novels by John Galsworthy, The Forsyte Saga is a compelling drama of love, adultery, obsession, power and money, spanning three generations at the turn of the 20th century. On the surface, the Forsytes are the ultimate powerful Victorian family—superior, arrogant, and confident—but underneath this imposing veneer lies a festering core of unhappy and brutal relationships.
