Overall a good series. I am not sure why they needed to include the silliness of their ancient religious practices. I mean which of their god's helps with any of these pandemics? Islam, Christianity, Hinduism? Why didn't they find an MD that had been abducted by aliens, I am sure there are a few out there. No myth has ever created a vaccine for anything.
When they back away from the unverifiable religious beliefs and focus on critical thinking and scientific methodology, it becomes something of value. If it were not for this major flaw, I would have given the series 8 Stars.
So I do suggest you watch the series, even if you realize there is no proof of heaven, nor hell.
