After nine episodes -- I can't believe I watched the whole thing, but I just wanted to find out how it would end -- you find out it simply goes nowhere, except for a few bizarre and pointless tangents that completely bloat out the last couple penultimate episodes.I could perhaps live with the total abandonment of the actual history of this campaign, but I can't forgive the pathetic plot.Reminds me of the latest season of The Vikings in its over-the-top drama but narrative pointlessness. But at least with Vikings we got some fairly decent entertainment out of the first few seasons, before the writers jumped the shark there. Here, they go for the camp by maybe the fourth episode, with it completely snowballing by the 7th or 8th?

So many shows strive to have some accuracy in their content.
But, I can't help wonder why the writers insist on using the "F word"?
This is supposed to be taking place in 49AD or thereabouts, YET the F word was not in use until the 1500s AD.
So, what the F---?Are the writers anything over 12?Ridiculous.
If you can't fill in any other words except for the aforementioned, get out of the writing business.The show kind of loses balance...got very boring.Just my opinion.

I loved it. It's upsetting to see the common critiques about the historical inaccuracy or similarities to Game of thrones. Maybe because of my ignorance of Celtic culture, I'm completely able to just enjoy the show and see what the producer/directors are trying to paint. as a period piece and fantasy genre lover, i don't Automically compare it to the last show I saw with castles on hbo.

This was one of those series that was so bad that you just kept watching hoping it will improve. Well just seen the last episode and that hope is dashed!
What on earth was this supposed to be about?
Please no more - don't even think about making a series two!
