That broken Ultron is a lot of amazing. But this guy wins the contest.

I can see it now. Piper busts through the pearly gates, walks up to God and says, “Either put on these glasses or start eating that trash can.”

If you like period/historical shows, it’s certainly better than most of them. The only problem I really had with it was the lead. I guess it went three seasons, not two, too, so I have a season to catch up on!

I saw them both, and I enjoyed the Jeremy Irons one the most, and even though the other one was nearly equal in production values, etc. they cast John Dornan as Borgia, which was awful. He’s a fine actor, and perhaps would do well if the entire cast were American, or spoke with an American accent, but his was so…

Yeah, then I definitely watched the Netflix one. I’d probably watch the other, it’s a pretty interesting political dynasty. Lots of intrigue. I think the rumors just make the stories better, but I’m not a history buff so much as a political philosophy nerd. And also, I mean, good TV is good TV.

Didn’t know about Jeanne, fascinating stuff. I’ve always been partial to Maria Pita

My money is on Celestial Seasonings bringing it to market.

The court of Milan was celebrated, but the Sforzas still started out as condotierri.

I loved the Caterina-Cesare scenes in The Borgias. Gina McKee was fantastic.

I don’t know. I’m sort of partial to Boudica.

I might give this a try! What edition would you recommend?

I don’t see either of the brothers stepping up to be the Designated Asshole™ on this team, especially since it seems Dutch and John have a past, and D’Avin is trying to be in her future. This will get interesting in and of itself, if the writers can avoid the cliché love triangle machinations.

Definitely. The Android was definitely the most entertaining bit of the episode.

“Enter Sandman?”

totally and I think it’s going to be private companies that work out all of the kinks and make it cheaper.

I think the reason we didn’t go back after 17 was because NASA had it’s budget cut. we couldn’t go back to the moon because we didn’t have enough money.
