7/10
A lot of potential, fun, interesting but also too American
30 December 2018
I really enjoyed these episodes. Megan felt a little out of place during the first episode checking out Vikings, but she has a very nice narrating voice and you can clearly see she get more and more used to her role over the episodes.

They touch on a lot of fun, and slightly, controversial topics. I especially enjoyed the sound waves and the guest appearance of Graham Hancock.

Negative is that the episodes feel too short, and they have that typical American repeat and camera moves to make the "not interesting" more interesting. It is very typical sensational focus and at times have more of a game show or Baseball commentator feel to it. I can deal with that though, but since they never dig really deep into the topics and they more just pass over several very interesting things, the show feels incomplete.

I give the show 7/10, which is frankly a little bit too much, but I like this and there is a lot more potential here. I hope they bring Megan back, dig a little bit more and deeper and focus slightly more on the facts and I think this can be a great addition to travels, history and myth.

I recommend.
