Just into season 3 found season 2 way to obvious and skipped a few episodes.

It's easy watch tbh

not sure what you mean by "too obvious"? it follows history pretty much to the letter as far as plotting and political manouvres go, like TLK in that regard, there are some liberties taken to fill in some gaps in knowledge.

But it all happened, and they are portraying real people.

I think as ive read quite a large amount of stuff from this period I wanted them to move it on a little quicker. Thus skipped ep 6 and 7. Also the Sean Bean factor just get to it already 😂.

That being said season 3 pacing is better.

Tlk?
