Well, I got to see it. I liked it. Interesting approach that they treat the two World Wars as one big war, and the period between was just one big long cease fire. Of course, the historical figures mentioned were in involved in both wars.
Interesting that in the First World War, a British sharp shooter had Adolf Hitler dead in his sights, and let him live. One only has to wonder what would have happened had the sharp shooter pulled the trigger that day.
It was a good mini-series, well worth the wait.
Now to address some previous posts here.
They show the German's sending Lenin by train back to St. Petersburg (called Petrograd by this point, but whatever, I'll let it slide). They talk about him and Stalin working together and leading the communist revolution that stormed the Winter Palace and "toppled the Tsar".
Actually, they just say the Russian government was toppled. The word "Tsar" is never mentioned. Yes, they did gloss over a lot of things, such as Kerensky, which I did find slightly jarring.
Roosevelt, Hitler, Patton, Mussolini, Churchill, DeGaulle and MacArthur then it is clearly has a distinct US bias as three of these six persons were Americans
Uh, you've listed seven people, not six.
It also focused on Stalin and Tojo. That means only three out of the nine people were Americans.
