Title: Acting 5/Technique 1
Product review: I had hopes for this series but was let down. I was willing to accept ridiculous plots in exchange for good acting and some archaeology. The plots were indeed ridiculous and the acting was fine. But their depiction of how archaeology is done disappointed. People picking up artifacts and carrying them off before mapping them in. No grid lines marking off units. No photography of artifacts in situ. And when they find the piece of cedar from the Holy Land infused with blood, nobody mentions that crucifixion was a common form of execution in that place, at that time? C'mon. I'll suspend a lot of disbelief and forgive a lot in the bargain, but this series really pushed me to the limit.
