More like 3-4 stars - there are many slow parts in between the rapid parts. There are some good parts and some not good parts. I could have done without the extra long creepy scenes especially the one with Jonathan Randall and Jamie Fraser (Jonathan is EXTRA DARK CREEPY AND VERY DISTURBING). Gorgeous scenery and history is always interesting. There are some really good actors in the show BUT I will not be moving on to other episodes/seasons. S1 had enough creepy scenes to be done with the show.
