Title: World on Fire
Review: Brilliant PBS series on the always highest-quality Masterpiece Theater, tells the story of the Nazi Blitzkrieg of Europe in 1939 and 1940. Magnificently told through the lens of five participants in five different countries. Tense, brutal, touching, heroic…once again make the convincing arguments for the saving graces the Brits and the Resistance, without whom the Nazis take over the world before we ever enter The War. The young faces in the cast are exceptional, but the sensational performances from veterans Hunt and Manville make this must see. Hard not to binge watch this short seven episodes first season. As second season is definitely in the works. Watch it on PBS On-Demand.
