Anyone still intrigued after the first season. That is to say if anyone does watch it.

Welcome to the forums Aquila 13 (or at least, I noticed the first post, but see you signed up a few months ago).

Anyway, after watching the youtube video it kind of reminds me of Game Of Thrones(?), Is it any good.

Hell Yeah!

For people that don't really know what its about:
Wikipedia wrote:The series follows the rise of the Borgia family to the pinnacle of the Roman Catholic Church and their struggles to maintain their grip on power. The beginning of the first season depicts the election of Rodrigo Borgia to the papacy through simony and bribery with the help of his son, Cesare. The triumph in the papal conclave of Borgia, who becomes Pope Alexander VI, enrages his rivals in the College of Cardinals, some of whom decide to plot against him. With the help of his family, Alexander takes on his enemies while striking alliances with other European powers to strengthen his position.

Anyway, if you're into historical fiction stuff, I strongly recommend this show!

Yeah its quite similar to Game of Thrones in plot twists and its political nature but its much more restrained with nudity (which is good, more focus on the story).

I don't mind it, but its certainly not the most exciting thing I've seen.

Cesare's mate is awesome. He always looks so dodgy. :P

I believe this have a less cluttered and more entertaining story line then Game of Thrones. Today the latest episode was released, I look forward to watching it.
