I liked the series as a different and unusual approach to Romans versus enemies. As this is a German show it focus on Germanic tribes , very rudimentary equipped to war , without any proper war tactics, etc. That's nice and along with the good visual effects and production , it was some of my favorite things. Acting is also good : Germans like those poetic scenes and intense dialogues and all of these are present...
Now, the biggest issue on this series, something that Game of Thrones had a lot of class and most TV shows don't : if you have a villain and you want to make it last, please don't put him on a situation that he could not possibly get away with it.
I'm talking about Segestes who commits the biggest betrayal, in front of Arminius and at the end, he is sitting on the winning side like nothing happened. Ok, you can say , it's a tv show , they to that all the time ... yes they do, but it's a bit insulting to our intelligence...
