The pilot episode is so charming, especially on rewatch when you've gotten to know the characters better--the background details of the crew's interactions are really worth paying attention to, and VERY funny. It's definitely not a serious historical drama, but tbh I watch a lot of historical dramas and they don't always have the level of care that went into the sets and the costumes for this show. It's not that everything is perfectly period-accurate, it's that the rich background details add to every scene. And it sets up the show perfectly for future episodes as well.
A great start to a very fun show :)
