How Many Episodes In Season 3 Of Britannia

So, About Britannia Season 3... and Those Episodes, Huh?
Okay, let's get real. We all watched Britannia, right? Or at least pretended to when our super-nerdy friend wouldn't stop talking about it.
Season 3 arrived. Big battles. Druids doing their thing. Romans being, well, Roman. But how many episodes did we actually have?
The Official (Boring) Answer
Fine, I'll give it to you straight. Technically, Britannia Season 3 has eight episodes. Yes, eight. I checked. Multiple times.

Happy now? Are you sure? Because I have a confession.
My Unpopular Britannia Opinion (Brace Yourselves)
Here it comes: eight episodes felt... not enough. Or maybe too much? Hear me out!
Each episode felt like a rollercoaster. Up, down, sideways. Plot twists everywhere. It was exhausting.

Remember that time Aulus did that super weird thing? Or when Divis stared intensely at a rock? Good times. Confusing times.
The Case for Fewer (or More) Episodes
Maybe six tightly packed episodes would've been better. All killer, no filler, right?
Or maybe TWELVE episodes! Dive deeper into the characters. Explore more of Roman life (and death!). More druid rituals. Imagine the possibilities!

I know, I know. I'm probably alone on this one. Everyone else probably thinks eight is the perfect number.
Did You Really Watch All Eight?
Be honest. Did you binge it in one go? Did you space it out over weeks? Or did you, like me, occasionally fast-forward through the slower bits?
Don't worry, I won't judge. We've all been there. That one side plot about the lost Roman helmet? Yeah, skipped that.

"But the helmet was crucial to understanding the socio-political climate!" - Someone, probably
Sure, Jan. Sure. The real drama was always with the Druids, wasn't it?
So, What's the Ideal Episode Count?
Ultimately, it's subjective. Maybe eight episodes is the perfect length. But maybe... just maybe... it could have been something more.
Something tighter. Something looser. Something... different.

Perhaps the writers should have listened to me. I had some great ideas involving a singing badger and a Roman toga party. Okay, maybe not.
Let's Talk About Britannia (and Episode Counts!)
What do you think? Am I crazy for questioning the episode count? Should they have stuck to the eight?
Or did you also feel like something was... off? Let me know in the comments (if there were any comments, that is).
In the meantime, I'll be here, rewatching Divis stare at that rock. Because, you know, gotta fill the time somehow.
