Query: Beautifully Realized Dune Follow-on

After watching the first Dune mini-series I didn't have high expectations despite the strong reviews on Amazon. Children of Dune is a revelation in sound craftmanship, excellent acting, balancing FX and emotional impact while portraying a complex storyline. I found the series irresistible once I got over having to link the original Dune (the Lynch movie) characters to their transformations in Children of Dune (ignoring the first Dune mini-series altogether).Of course, there's items we can pick on in terms of plot details but I'm choosing to commend the director for allowing the actors to act rather than spending too much time on emotionless special effects.
