I started to see it, because I found the idea refreshing. But it was too exaggerated, to biased, too black-and-white and nationalistic, at least the first chapter. I found it boring and stopped watching, sorry. The Raj was evil, colonialism is the most damaging single ideology of the history of mankind (ever surpassing masculine sexism, and this is a LOT to surpass), I would be totally sympathetic to something a bit more nuanced, more realistic. As it was, it was too much, like eating pure sugar instead of a cake (I love cakes).
PS: I would LOVE to see a war epos about a group of soldiers in the Vietnam War. A group of *north Vietnamese* soldiers. Viet Cong welcome.
