It's basically a bunch of battle videos combined in order.
Some of the writing is not ideal, and I know from familiarity with the subject matter that there were some errors and omissions. However, what I really like about the Kings and Generals visualizations is that instead of throwing old war footage or a talking head or some 3D render up, they spend their whole time looking at a map and showing how things play out on it, which provides for a much more useful sense of geography. Almost every one of the handful of war documentary makers that I really like does the same thing.
I watched a very interesting documentary ElDorado: Everything the Nazis Hate about the gay and trans community in 1920's/1930's Berlin and what happened when the Nazis took power.
And for some more lighthearted fun, Glamorous about a gender non-conforming queer person making their way in a glamorous MakeUp company. I super enjoyed watching Miss Benny as the main character and would really like to see more of her.

I watched the four hour WW2 Guadalcanal Campaign documentary on YouTube on the Kings and Generals channel.

It's pride month, so I'm watching LGBTQ+ stuff.

Season finale of Dr Who in Disney. We like the cheesy sci fi monsters.

More of Star Wars The Acolyte. There's at least some appeal in the fact it doesn't take place during the Vader or Kylo eras like everything else.

The Boys. I was really weary of the new season because it isn't the last one yet, but so far it's great.
