the show itself is more entertaining than i had expected, kinda like an italian/vatican game of thrones. this version, it's.... interesting. the one i was after was the BBC production, this is like some czech-hungarian-somewhere else similar made show on the same story. the script is a bit more interesting, but the acting abilities for the most part are painful. the most horrendous bit however, is that despite being a EUROPEAN made show, about EUROPEAN people, the guy that plays borgia, a pope, has such an american accent.
jeremy irons doesn't have an accent. he has a drawl. (scar from lion king, if you're unfamiliar)
