Ran across this while browsing subtitled Oriental series on Youtube:

This was apparently a Hong Kong production about the founding emperor of the Han regime, with the emperor character (basically a jumped-up peasant made good) played for laughs. If English language Wikipedia is remotely accurate, however, the story does hew fairly closely to historical accounts. The resolution isn’t great, but the writing, IMO, is fairly fast-paced, at least in the episode or so I’ve watched. Subtitles are adequate in the sense of being comprehensible.
Interesting. Started it. Very reflective with good music. Thanks for the pointer.
