Marco Polo - The Series: Epic, "Shakespearean"

[drakke1]

A fine new series. Well done in all respects...the acting, story line and production are all first rate. And if you are a fan of Chinese art, architecture and martial arts you will find the series most enjoyable...

Hi drakke1,

Would you per chance happen to know if this new series could be an elaborate remake of this one from 1982 ? I remember having seen that one, probably during a rerun or something, and enjoyed the story as such very much but the way in which it was done spoiled it a bit as being outmoded and/or outdated.

If the storyline is still intact, it would be marvelous to watch it again in its new 'clothing' I suspect.

Anyway, thanks for sharing and signaling. :)

Greetings: The current production features an entirely different cast - and i never did view the earlier "incarnation" -- in all events this current one is truly first rate - i hope you enjoy it :)
