My expectations for historical action shows are not high. Most of them just make me wish someone else had been given that premise and budget to make a show aimed a little higher than 17 year old dudes who watch stabbings and shagging in the background while playing Total War on their laptop.
Barbarians exceeds those modest expectations. It does have stabbings and shagging. But it also has a much more authentic feel than most of the genre. It probably helps that the actors (who are really good) speak German and Latin. Recommended if you’re a history buff [insert Norm MacDonald joke].
