How historically accurate do you think it is?

  Enough to spark a historical curiosity, certainly not enough to sate it. The broad strokes storyline is accurate, and most of the main characters (excepting the protagonist) are also generally historically accurate. It also has some interesting allusions to characters like Müller who disappeared at the end of the war and remains the highest ranking Nazi whose fate was never determined. However the storyline and details of such are fiction. The real beauty of the show is simply in the people and the dialog and discussions. It hits on issues that are timeless in such a concise and elegant way. This [2] is one of my favorite dialogues/scenes from the series. And it's that which makes it such a great series. The pacing is excellent, the story is great, and all of that. But the series just provides such amazing dialogues, even absent all context, over and over.
