Absolutely can not stand the music in the opening credits. The montage of images feels very retro and not in a good way. I wish Amazon had the "Skip Intro" button like Netflix to pass up this monstrosity. Other than this Britannia is a good watch. If you are sensitive to fowl language it's not a show for you. Don't take this show too seriously and try to hold it to history. It's a fantasy held in a setting that is recognizable. That's it. So hopefully the second season they throw out the hippy opening sequence and make something that makes more sense to the show.

This is entertainment. And as such well done. And PLEASE - not everything has to be compared to GOT! Just because there is some fantasy/mystic element doesn't mean GOT is the measure (which it is not after all)
... View MoreThe Donovan track over the opening credits tell you everything you need to know. It's a psychedelic journey through Celtic Britain, wonderful cast, Morrisey especially good, as is the hypnotic Kelly Rilley. The script is far more subtle than you first notice, this is not GOT, and thank god for that. You want historical accuracy? Look elsewhere, this is a beautifully shot dreamscape, jump on in.
