This show is well done! The cast is great, the acting is fabulous and anyone that says it is boring and the story is "overdone", should consider picking up a history book and get outside their own mind for a change. The persecution of the Jewish people was and is horrendous. To say they were the "lucky ones" is sad; they still lived through something none of us in today's world, can imagine! I can't wait for the rest of the episodes! I have put the book on my want to read list. I imagine it is even better than this show, as most books are. God bless the Jewish people. They have suffered enough, for all of humanity.
