Personally, no. I tried to watch it myself because it allegedly matches the time period of my novel, but I stopped at Episode 1 on the first try and even on the second try couldn't keep going past Episode 20 or so. It's not a historical drama but a wuxia fantasy based very loosely on history. That's fine in itself, but it's also cartoonishly simplistic in its characterizations and morality and I couldn't stand it. Evidently it was a massive hit in Iran, though. XD
