The Borgias

Mar 28, 2011 09:23

I watched the first two episodes (1 hour 36 min) of The Borgias. The opening credit is very good. Costumes are gorgeous. There're some interesting character relationships (brother and sister, son and an assassin, sister and daddy's lover etc.), eye candies for men, and Jeremy Irons in RED.

I think the show is not supposed to be funny, but when ( Read more... )

You are the third on my flist who rec the Borgias XD
Should i take this as a sign? ;)
I will check it out. Especially because Hurst is the producer.
I love The Tudors so much *.*

Yes, the same producer. But I think this one (at least the first two episodes) are a bit lighter than The Tudors. Well, that's just me.

And I wish the guy who plays the assassin is hotter, and I can ship him with Cesare Borgia ;p

I am going to have to spend Friday morning sorting out what program is on when so I can set my DVR to record the various things. Everything is on THIS month, sheesh.

I know, I am excited for April.

Yes, but does it all have to be on at once, LOL? For months there is nothing and then-boom.

I am just glad we can get this show on TV at the same time as US viewers. For Camelot, I have to depend on the Internet.

The pace is a bit slow here and there, but the storyline is interesting enough to keep me watching. I am looking forward to watch more.
Exactly what I think :P
Hope it will get more interesting with time, I'm faithful enough :D

I know almost nothing about the Borgias family, and I don't intend to learn more about it before I watch the show. So hopefully it will get more interesting.

It's a little slow but I can understand that. The assassin is really creepy. Besides, didn't Caesare love his sister more than he should have?

> The assassin is really creepy

I think he looks like Van Gogh although he is not a ginger ;p

> Besides, didn't Caesare love his sister more than he should have?

LOL that's the interesting part ;p
