    Is the show worth it? I heard quite negative things initially and didn’t want to bother.

      Lee Pace and Jared Harris deliver compelling performances. It is visually stunning (wouldn’t watch it on a phone or iPad). The themes are interesting (to me anyway). It is of course, sprawling - the show’s timeline covers centuries, which can make it harder to follow for casual viewers, so at least some of the negativity is anticipated. But I quite like it.
