This series , which looks great on blu ray, is a improvement over the first one. And that is saying alot. However this is really a drama mostly with a few action scenes and finally a battle spisode. The lack of battles in this show is due to budget restraints but the acting and plotline make up for that mostly. Still this is a show that deserves a 13 episode run and not just 10. But once again it's probably the budget restraints as the sets and customes and such are incredible. The whole show is first rate and even the low ratings are not really putting down the show.
