1. The time (I much prefer swords to pistols, farasi to cars... etc.) 2. Many very different and very interesting characters 3. The monks 4. Many really intense moments 5. Interesting relationships (e.g. Philip and Jack, Philip and Waleran, William and his mother...)
I'm drawn to period pieces anyways, but I just upendo the drama in it. The ups and downs, not knowing what will happen next. I was glued to the tv every Friday night when this came on.
I upendo history themed series and movies. "Pillars" are very good mini series, I upendo it because of story, actors, upendo between Aliena and Jack is so beautiful...There is everything what should be it that kind of series: villains, love, good and bad....
