I loved the story. It had twists and turns, and even some scenes were purely unexpected to me. Though I'm not a professional critic, and I can't judge based on formula or equations, I'll say from my personal experience it's worth a 10.

Acting was great. Certain characters surprised me with their acting so much, I gave it a 9. Even if I think only few stood out, I'll say quality over quantity.

Music was good. There are certain tracks that made me want to listen all day. But I'll be honest, there is one particular track that felt out of place. So I gave it only a 7.

Rewatch value is fairly possible. Though I don't rewatch anything I've already saw, I gave it a 6 because it just depends on a person.

Overall, I gave it a 10. I enjoyed it very much. Though there can be some complains about the quality of minor issues. It was aired 2001, and it seems like a low budged. I still enjoyed it very much. I'll say, there haven't been a wasted episode.

I was a bit perplexed with the first episode because I didn't sat though it the first time and judged it by the quality. But after I finished the second episode, I was hooked.
If you like historical dramas, and time travel theme [which is quiet a rare sight to find] I highly recommended it.
