Eeeh, I am skeptical when I see a series like this, I feel like is trying to bank on GoT/Rome Medieval tits and asses, of course Troy would be way far from actual medieval times and far from Rome too (Will Enea be there?), but I won't be watching it when is out.

What really baffles me is that only 3% of UK population is black, yet they shove niggers in all of these historic white pieces. Of those 3%, how many do you imagine watch these shows? Probably less than 10% of blacks. How does it make any sense to go out of your way to please a tiny portion of the audience while completely shitting on and putting off the majority of it? And another thing that boggles me is the notion that you cant enjoy a show or movie unless it features people of your race. Of all the foreign shows and movies that I have seen, never have I thought to myself that I cant enjoy them or relate to and sympathize with the characters just because they dont look like me. What kind of warped and narrow logic is that? This whole diversity thing makes absolutely no sense.
