I love it when high school freshman come on the chans and post "babby's first" shit.

I only know Spanish historical series. Isabel and Pedro el cruel are pretty informative and historically accuarate.

ANZACS

Reilly Ace of Spies

Fall of Eagles

Marketa Lazarova

Lindybeige is the most educated on the subject. Historia Civilis and Schola Gladiatoria are good complimentary channels, with a bit less insight

Barry Lyndon

Horatio Hornblower
Sharpe

That's 30 hours+ of Napoleonic drama. Top shit. Wish I hadn't seen it when I was younger and it was all fresh to me now.

>Don't watch the last two Sharpe movies.

Don't watch Sharpe's Gold either.

300
Kingdom of heaven
Any movie by Mel Gibson
Game of thrones

Its hard to be a god

>Underageb&

1864 the movie

>Sharpe's Gold
is that the one with cannibal conquistadors?

(potential watchers do not be alarmed, sharpe is a GOAT series otherwise)

Oh man, this is so good. My history teacher showed it to us in class.

Gods and Generals
Anything by Ken Burns, ie; The West, The Civil War, etc etc
I got into Tudors once all the fucking died down and it got into the intricacies of the court.

Wolf Hall is a far better show to watch than the Tudors if you want some Henry the VIII shit, better quality and shorter

Honestly I think he's a good jumping off point but a lot of his stuff is anecdotal and based on LARPing and HEMA. Not to say that isn't better than what most historians do in terms of explaining shit but keep in mind it isn't really supported by hard evidence. I do like his shirts though.

>gods and generals
>slave has a conversation with stonewall Jackson
>Jackson gives him the time of day
>slave quotes Napoleon

Probably the most unrealistic representation of slavery I've seen.

James Burke's Connections

My university interviewer practically offered me the place on the spot when I referenced it in our conversation.

I see it is from 1978, almost 40 years old. Is it still accurate?

Andrei Rublev
Ran
Flammen & Citronen (really fucking underrated WW2 movie)
Guldkysten is pretty cool too.

A Royal Affair is a top tier movie about a really cool and sorta obscure part of Danish history.

And it got based Mads Mikkelsen in the lead.

Even though the Frenchmen speak English in various accents

The great courses (TCC) offers the best lectures, just pirate the one you like

leave

There's literally no where to pirate those fucking things. All I can find are some mp3 versions. Nothing complete.

>There's literally no where to pirate those fucking things.
2 seconds of searching.

You can get a ton of them for only 15 bucks a pop at audible, plus you get acess to tons of other books

Fuck off, audible shill. I'm not giving your company money.

Piratebay was down for me. Thanks.

yeah, it's pretty fucking fun and has the worlds best irish qt in it

real talk: what are some great historical documentary sources? History channel is dead and BBC stuff is pretty limited

thehistoryofrome.typepad.com/

Starts a bit weak but just skip to like episode 30 and get carried away.

The Revolutions stuff is great too, particularly France and Haiti

>historical documentary sources?
Read a book, you know the thing all those documentaries are meant to be based on.
