First the positive parts - I do like the performance of Daniel Varbanov as Bayan. He is obviously very talented. Same goes for Duhovnikova and Baharov's roles. The sets aren't bad, but they should have spent some money on CGI in order to better replicate the 10th century atmosphere. The rest of the show - disgusting! Donkov is chewing scenery like crazy. This isn't a play. He doesn't have to ham it up so much. The dialogue is garbage. The way the younger actors are talking, they make it sound more like a Disney teen comedy than a historical drama. To make matters even more ridiculous, the dialogue has 20th and 21st terminology. At least they didn't make Bayan say: "Hey, Tsar Simeon, I am just chillin' over here, dude."
