Craziness in our house and lives has held up TV watching and we got behind. The Borgias is getting weird but still quite interesting. DaVinici is much better than I thought, but I am wondering if they will touch on his homosexuality.

I forget which episode, but there was already a hint at bisexuality.

Agree on The Borgias getting weird... I could do without the Lucrezia/Cesare thing, but whatever...

Da Vinci, I don't know, it's kind of taking too much leeway what with the Almost Beards and the Just woke up from a nap hairstyles...

Did you watch Spartacus? They did the same thing on that show. Sorry, no... Romans did not dress that way, nor wear hair like that, etc. (in a lot of it anyhow). But it was still fun to watch. They aren't striving for historical accuracy in everything... but they are striving for ratings. So, I guess "hawt" in the modern sense sells...

But, like you, we like stuff like this, too. I think it's a lot of fun, and I love the mystical stuff, especially when it references real things like the cult of Mithra and the origins of the Tarot (first episode--it really did originate in Italy during this era).

We also watch The Borgias. Watched The Tudors, too.

Did you watch Vikings on History channel? We really liked that show, too. A lot!
