But I still thoroughly enjoyed it. Henry Cavill KILLED IT!!! He's shown himself to be one of the finest actors in the business because of this show. And the cinematography is gorgeous. The show's writing is well done, as each plot line slowly reveals themselves as time passes. Interestingly enough, the show covers multiple points in time without specifically telling you. Instead, it drops hints of which time period you are currently watching through the ages of certain characters, states of kingdoms, etc. it's rather clever and forces the viewer to pay close attention to even the smaller details and I really liked that. I won't say anymore. It's a very good show and I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys good TV!
