Marco Polo

Marco Polo is such an entertaining and underrated show, the only thing I'm mad at is it took as long as it did for me to watch it. You can tell they put a lot of money into this show by the sheer scale of it. Although Season one was really good it really takes off on season two. It almost feels like a different show in season two. This was one of Netflix's first big shows when Netflix was first taking off. Is it historically accurate? No...but who cares? It doesn't claim to be. It's just an entertaining show that's very well done! They canceled it too early but I read that it was so ridiculously expensive to make that they didn't have a choice. Still, glad we got two amazing seasons out of it.

This show is great and worth watching but it falls short of being a masterpiece due to an anti-climactic inconclusive ending. Probably because it wasn't supposed to end with season 2 but got cancelled prematurely just like netflix does with all of its shows.

Season 1 was perfect and season 2 wasn't far off with the last two episodes in particular being near perfection. It seemed set up so nicely to go from strength to strength in further seasons but alas Netflix decided we deserved no more. Well worth a watch though all the same.

Marco Polo not only met my expectations but exceeded them in every way. It was only on for two seasons but they were a great two seasons. This has to be one of Netflix's most underrated shows ever. I don't know anyone who's seen it that didn't like it. Lorenzo Richelmy is absolutely perfect for this role and does such a terrific job as the lead and Benedict Wong leads a fantastic supporting cast. I'm actually mad at myself for putting it off for as long as I did. If you're a fan of historical action adventure thrillers like myself and you haven't watched this yet then do yourself a favor and go watch it as soon as possible. You won't be disappointed. Just make sure you leave yourself enough time because you're going to want to binge it as fast as you can.

If anything to give it a proper ending. I thought this was a well done series and I would continue watching it. The actors were outstanding the plots good the action sufficient.
