Concept: A series that starts off as an historical drama building towards some major event, like the assassination of Caesar or the crucifixion or something, where everyonein your audience knows what’s “supposed” to happen; and then it turns out in the first season finale that one of the characters is a time traveller on a mission to change history and they actually succeed, so it segues into a bizarre alternate history narrative in season 2.
And the hints are all there that this character is a time traveller from the first episode, but you don’t pay attention to them because you figure that it’s just the normal level of anachronism in historical dramas, like: “Wow, that person has surprisingly progressive views for the Victorian period” or “Ah, I don’t think they said ‘dude’ in the fourteenth century, lol.” And then they don’t know what they’re watching until it’s too late
Oh, I am HERE for this kind of shit
This reminds me of that BBC Atlantis series where Jason does a time travel in the first episode and then it is never mentioned again
