Lots of the same video repeated over and over. Historic content was limited. It might be OK for someone who didn't know anything about human history.

It is nice and enjoyable. I have seen it before on history channel but only in bits and pieces. So i had to have it to see the whole thing. But it was enjoyable to watch again
