I watched the first hour on Sunday and had to turn it off because of the constant string of historical inaccuracies. It was like the research was done by a room of 5th graders. It was absolute dreck. Just a few of the stupidities uttered or portrayed.

- Portrayed the use of poison gas in 1914, reality it was 1915

- Made Gallipoli seem like the battle lasted a few days at most, reality it was over many months.

- Stated the reason for the Villa punitive expedition was the murder of mining engineers, did not even mention Columbus, NM.

-Stated that the Bolsheviks overthrew the Czar, reality the Bolsheviks overthrew Kerensky, not the Czar.

-Stated that after the Bolshevik Revolution, the Germans were able to move troops to the Italian Front for the Battle of Caporetto, reality Caporetto occurred in 1916, not the winter of 1917-18.

- Stated in 1914 the Allies were just Britain, France, and Russia, no mention or map reference that Serbia was even involved in the war.

- Stated that the Ottoman Empire was in the war from the beginning, wrong.

- Had a general ask Churchill for his resignation as First Lord of the Admiralty. Only the Prime Minister would of been in the position to do it.

- American troops were armed with Lee Enfield SMLE’s, while the British were using Springfield 03’s

This was only the first hour, I'm afraid to find out what other idiocies were uttered in the next 4 hours.

It was very bad. Perfect for LIVs. I'm still trying to figure out the purpose of the series. Misinformation, for sure. Disinformation, I'm still looking at that.

I quit watching when they showed the Japanese using Arleigh Burke class destroyers at the Battle of Midway.
