    Let's be realistic.

    I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

    Good story, Not enough for a whole film

    Huievest

    Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

    Some reviewers are being way too critical. The show has to repeat things (as most History Channel shows do) in order to catch a new viewer. Love the Texas accent on on the astrophyscist, Surely, they will make more episodes because Tesla's work was too important to abandon the study now. I want more!

    I do believe this shows purpose is great. It does have great information for people who know nothing about him. I do find it very repetitive at times. I do wish they were more thorough in their leads. But I do look forward to newer episodes. Who's to say there wasn't fowl play on the date of his death. Also everything points to him having a lab within the building, the connections need to be made on why the buildings plans changed. Did our current president have the show shutdown after it was published that his Uncle was involved? Keep up the good work.

    You've seen this format dozens of times before. Each new episode starts off with previews of the last episodes and can go for 15 minutes before starting properly. It is highly repetitious and continually flashes back to scenes from previous episodes and you keep saying to yourself 'yes, I know that' and 'you've already said that'. It's as if they have very little information and are trying to tease it out to fill in the time. Originally I was quite excited to see this. A promise of an actual investigation into a highly influential if somewhat mysterious inventor. The fist episode was great and then it slid badly into Reality TV and all the usual traps. There is a lot of speculation no backing material which shouldn't be hard to prove or disprove. My patience for this came to an end in episode three when they overlooked some promising leads and instead opted for the wow factor which didn't happen. One of the questions was 'How did Tesla afford to spend the last 10 years of his life in a, for that time, upmarket hotel like the New Yorker?' another question regarding the building of a huge generator in the basement area directly below the New Yorker that could power three building the same size. My thoughts were that they would ask to see records from the archives to find out who paid for his room and meals, receipts and bills of loading for equipment that must have been delivered to the New Yorker to build the generator. And maybe search for his tax returns to see who was paying him. ummm no, nothing. Next they went to a building that housed some of his equipment and were told that they couldn't enter because of toxic mould. No worries, bio-suits and cameras? umm no, a drone with limited footage. And, it seems the graffiti artists had no problem with toxic mould. They didn't even bother to find out who manufactured the equipment in there (another source of informtaion?). Basically for an Investigative Reporter, he's a bit shallow in digging for information. A promising series but I don't think these two could find an anchovy in a pizza. But then I guess that's not why they're doing this series.It's a 2 from me for actually spelling his name correctly.

    The problem with this series is the annoying repeated statements and lack of depth in support of their claims. The amount of hearsay and inference that has no support other than the opinions of a interviewees and the experts followed in the episodes. Furthermore, poor editing, along with the constant repeating of previously stated opinions, just makes this whole attempt to uncover the story behind Tesla's time in the states a pointless exercise.
