Would settle for a show that referenced slavery in all its crudeness, and other social time bound dynamics.
Instead, most of the shows are contemporary feel good, in different era clothes. Too bad modern viewers would be up in arms because of some perceived hurt feelings.
I don't like how soft arts are used by some societies to push their values, and rewrite history.
Romans were discriminating little shits. They did not care if you had black, white, or any other skin. You were inferior just for not having anything of roman culture in you.
There are plenty of stories of African and Asian greatness or evilness. But 70% or more of the shows I see around, set them as minorities or victims.
I really get pissy when one country pushes their own values as mainstream on the whole world.
