No matter howe many times you watch this expensive dud, you'd probably STILL struggle to say a single thing that happened in it.

Netflix spent $100 million on this at the height of Game Of Thrones' popularity, and while it didn't MISS that wave completely - it did have its fans for the moment, and it WAS a pretty damn cool idea for a show - it just had absolutely zero staying power.

For all its over produced, overly expensive pomp and circumstance, the story of the renowned explorer as he travels through 13th century China just had nothing behind the eyes. No greater theme, or if it did, no ability to convey it. At least the acting was good. But even then, nothing truly memorable one way or the other.

One of the worst things you can be when it comes to media is boring, and this show is boring with a capital, bold, and underlined B.
