Watched all but about the last 40 minutes of the first episode last night. On the whole, it was well done. They are definitely stretching the facts a bit-- and on a story that was remarkable enough on its own. :D

History Channel pulled out all the stops to promote this thing, even influencing GEICO to retread a couple of their "Did you know...?" commercials.  This wouldn't be their first time using ads and other shows like Pawn Stars to sell a new program but I just felt over-saturated at the end of it all.  Also Adrian Brody has never been appealing to me since The Pianist.
