Aside from cute Maxime, I would concur that it was a terrible documentary for anyone knowing even the tiniest bit of (accurate) information on the Revolution.
I didn't see where it might have implied that Maxime called the Estates General though. O.o Very odd.
The most annoying thing about it is the History Channel can spend ten hours describing an minor event (and doing a very thorough job) when it comes to American history. ...The emphasis really bugs me. A lot. *fumes*
And with documentaries like this, it really is no wonder people think Maxime was a dictator; I mean, the only people mentioned on the same level with him are Capet and Antoinette.
*sighs* The world is definitely in need of a decent documentary on the Revolution.
