Prilično dobra serija, te preporucujem... Sad je u drugoj sezoni (sinoć je bila 3. epizoda, a prva sezona od prošle godine je imala 8 epizoda), dakle ukupno 11 epizoda dosad. Nije historical fiction kao Borgias, Tudors ili Rome nego 'historical fantasy drama', ali je recimo meni zanimljivija od Borgias (koja je isto dosta dobra bila), barem od poslednje sezone, i desava se u otpr isto vreme u italiji (tj deceniju-dve ranije od dogadjaj u Borgias). Možda je zbog nje i otkazana Borgias sezonu ranije (jer je bilo planirano da ima 4 sezone kao Tudors, ali je ipak zavrsila sa samo 3).

sa imdb:
Written by David S. Goyer, the series follows the „untold” story of Leonardo Da Vinci: the genius during his early years in Renaissance Florence. As a 25-year old artist, inventor, swordsman, lover, dreamer and idealist, he struggles to live within the confines of his own reality and time as he begins to not only see the future, but invent it.

In a world where thought and faith are controlled, one man fights to set knowledge free. The secret history of Leonardo da Vinci's tantalizing life reveals a portrait of a young man tortured by a gift of superhuman genius. He is a heretic intent on exposing the lies of religion. An insurgent seeking to subvert an elitist society. A bastard son who yearns for legitimacy with his father. He finds himself in the midst of a storm that has been brewing for centuries. A conflict between truth and lies, religion and reason, past and future. His aspirations are used against him by the opposing forces of the time-luring him into a game of seduction where those who despise his intellect need him most. Leonardo must take up the fight against foes who use history to suppress the truth. A hero armed only with genius, Da Vinci stands alone against the darkness within, and the darkness without. Facing an uncertain future, his quest for knowledge nearly becomes his undoing as he explores the fringes of his own sanity. Da Vinci throws himself into his genius and emerges as an unstoppable force that lifts an entire era out of darkness and propels it into light. His story becomes a mirror into our own world, calling us all to join his fight to Free the Future.

sa rottentomatoes:
Everyone knows that Leonardo da Vinci was an extraordinary artist, sculptor and inventor, but this evocative and involving cable drama paints a portrait of the consummate Renaissance man who, as a twentysomething, was a passionate ladies' man, swashbuckling swordsman and intrepid adventurer. The series opens with da Vinci (Tom Riley) receiving a commission from the Medicis to create an Easter spectacle in Florence. Later, he's hired to build war machines; investigates the source of demonic possessions at a convent; meets a mysterious Turk (Alexander Siddig); has an chilling encounter with Vlad Dracula; and constructs a suit for underwater transportation.
