Roman Empire: Reign of Blood (Series on Netflix)

Has anyone see this series on Netflix, yet?

 

It appears to be part documentary, part historical drama, and part total Hollywood fantasy centered around the reign of Commodus.

The first episode deals with the convoluted relationship of Marcus Aurelius's wife Faustina with the potential usurper Avidius Cassius upon rumors of Aurelius's death.

 

I haven't watched the series close enough or beyond the first episode in order to make a final opinion. Despite a few possible historical inaccuracies, however,  I appreciate the effort.
