Mystic and beautiful - but I expected nothing less from Trevor Morris. :)
The german Borgia series we got here is great. But still, I'm looking forward to seeing the Showtime version. Can anyone tell when it will be out in German language??? All I found on Amazon was the English DVD and that would be kind of difficult to me...
This is on par with Rome...though Rome had more visual effects the drama and political manouverings are exactly the same! keep these high quality historical dramas going (way better than the tudors and more accurate)
i agree its inaccurate but i enjoyed it. by the way Borgia was never a templar that's just the AC story line i love those games but you wanna talk about inaccurate? the protrayls of the Borgia family in that is highly Fiction!
@hitmanlover It was not highly fiction as you say. Borgia was really a corrupted pope ruling Rome along with his son, also conspiring with France at that time, betrayed by own son Cesare who took the power but got exiled to Viana and vowed to return. Basicaly if you take away all the pieces of Eden, Templars and Assassins from the game AC Brotherhood then it sort of becomes a history lesson
@hitmanlover Gotta agree with SuperIceCold, the vast majority of history in that game is really accurate. All the descriptions of historic sites, as well as big events that happened were all quite true. The developers did their research.
I just started watching the borgias tonight on sky atlantic and theres totally a shot from the tudors opening credits, when Holliday Grainer's name comes up, the bit below it is Natalie Dormer's neck i swear.
Also at 1:15, that's peter o'toole's hands from the tudors season two opening credits

I love BOTH "The Tudors" and "The Borgias", both are exquisite and amazing shows and both are all very exciting historical figures. The only thing Iike more about The Borgias, is that their costumes are actually accurate than they are in The Tudors.
i think the opening sequence for the Borgias was just fantastic, the way it reflected the time period and showed viewers both the beauty and the brutality of the Renaissance through the artwork, which the series captured magnificently.
it's so funny that showtime was so unoriginal that they had to use clips from the tudors opening in the borgias. like anne boleyn at 0:27 and the other at 0:49
If anyone's interested in good The Borgias recaps, I stumbled upon a site offering just that called The Benevolent Clicktator. Google it. It's a decent site, well worth the read.
Uh....am I the only one who noticed that at 28 seconds it is clearly Natalie Dormer's neck from the Tudors promo? They probably added an earring...but it's the exact same.
It is a far better series than the Tudors, and the setting itself is far more interesting and intriguing than that of the Tudors. The dynamics at play are also very different, and in my opinion revolves more around Cesare than Rodrigo himself. 15th century Italy is an amazing time.
indeed the tudors SUCKED the Borgias are far better they also have better actor's for the borgias then the tudors and yes 15th century is indeed an amazing theme and time
and whats funny is the show wasnt Filmed in Italy but i know what you mean it is an amazing show. tho i wouldnt compare it to the Tudors they both are better in its own way.
@fluroe It really matters on your personal opinion. You can't judge which period of history was intriguing and which period wasn't. You can say that you like this period but how do you know that this IS the best? Now I love the Tudors and it is perfect for me, but I don't go around judging periods of history and telling everyone what is better and what is not. You should know the difference between voicing your opinion and judging.
