Shgun may be known as the show that made Emmys history now, but prior to the groundbreaking show's release, many within FX were concerned that a show primarily in a non-English language wouldn't resonate with audiences in the U.S. This is a concern that was revealed by the person who runs FX, John Landgraf, all while Landgraf was a guest on The Ringer podcast known as The Town with Matthew Belloni. According to Landgraf, not only were many of the other higher-ups at FX concerned about how Shgun would perform, he even admits to having to mislead them somewhat to get the show's momentum going.
