I just watched the first episode, Alexander the Great, and it is the first documentary about Alexander that properly gives viewers the real scope of the magnitude of his achievements. To comprehend the size of the empire he created: he covered 11,000 miles in 10 years. Just think about that, for a minute. It is truly mind-boggling.
The mix of action scenes and documentary input from noted historians and generals really works well and the pace never flags throughout the 90 minutes.
Excellent production values: locations, costumes, battle scenes. All first-rate.
I thoroughly recommend that you watch this.
