I've enjoyed it much more than I thought I might, given it plays fast and loose with some history. It's not a documentary, I'll leave it at that. It was otherwise pretty enjoyable.

Yeah, don't go in expecting a tight recounting of historical fact. It probably plays better for someone unfamiliar with Einstein's life and his work.

Had the TV on mute, I looked up and saw a commercial for the latest episode with Picasso, and for a second there I though they were doing a documentary about Hitler.

Anyone else watching this on National Geographic? I just watched the first 4 parts of it tonight and so far am really enjoying this one. Wow, her father was a piece of work!
