I watched the first episode, could barely watch this and could watch no more. It is viewed so utterly from a 21st century perspective and presented as such that it is barely watchable. Comparing Shakespeare to the 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre'; phrases like, 'It's game on'; "he hated himself for not wanting to let go'; 'it feels like a real kill-shot'. Cringy in the extreme. Many of the "talking heads' offered risibly little in terms of intelligent and academic analysis. This is so dumbed down It's embarrassing. There is little here for anybody who has even GCSE knowledge of The Bard of his work. Utter rubbish.
