Has potentials

Nobody said the series is about the French revolution. Instead the description has already been put forward stating "reimagined french revolution". Anyways it has a good story. Watched it till the end and I've enjoyed it personally. Waiting for season 2. For someone like me who enjoys dark mystery, supernatural, action, its a lovable series.

Just Enjoy it! Do not compare with books or known history

Just stream it and enjoy the excellent BGM, cinematography, VFX, performances, direction. Do not compare with history or books as this clearly says reimagined history. Need more shows like this which are entertainers. Waiting for more...

Shame on you, Netflix, for cancelling this

To me this was one of the best 2020 shows. I can't understand why was this cancelled

Wasted

All I could think about when I completed watching the show was that this show had great potential. Fictional dramatisation of the French Revolution using blood sucking dead but not unintelligent beings ruling over France-woah, the premise is great but the execution- meh! Over all, it's been a few hours since I've watched the show and it's already stale in my mind. I sincerely hope they do better in seasons 2, if there's going to be one.

What's context?

I give it a 7 solely to spite the fools who believed this was supposed to be an accurate account of the revolution. Did anyone care to read the description? It states clearly as it taking place in, "a reimagined history of the French Revolution". Please read before watching and rating things after 12 minutes with no understanding

Trivia
The French didn't actually invent the device that would become the 'guillotine'. The decapitation machine now known as the guillotine was not a French invention and wasn't invented by Joseph Guillotin... The origins of this macabre device are medieval, although the date of its earliest use remains uncertain. An early record comes from Halifax in West Yorkshire, England which had the right to execute criminals by 1280 at the latest. A machine called 'The Halifax Gibbet' was first recorded as being used there in 1286 when one John Dalton was beheaded. It wasn't until many years later first used in France on 25 April 1792.
