I almost asked who is he.

Peter is going to show up in Indian Summers next week I'm so excited

BL.Arinna_1982

It's a TV show?

Arinna - Yes, it's a TV show also starring Jemima West who was in season 2 of "The Borgias" and Amber Rose Revah who was in season 1 of "Borgia". More info on wiki: Indian Summers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

May - yeah, I've been having a hard time with "The Musketeers". Mainly because it's playing so by the book, every trope of the typical swashbuckler film is addressed but in a very conventional and unexciting way. Arthos and Milady could be interesting if they were written more ambiguously. It's fine but it's hardly a creative reinvention of the material.

I'm still so bitter about this because Della Rovere had so much potential in season 1 and then in season 2 they totally went off the rails with that stupid poisioning plot. The real Della Rovere is surely rolling in his grave, it's so ahistorical.

I'm still hoping for Caterina Sforza to appear on "Da Vinci's Demons".

I honestly don't like any Caterina as much as I loved Gina.

I dropped The Musketeers, as I've said before it was too cute and happy for me. Too PG13. And is not that I can't stand a "happy show" I mean I did watch some Doctor Who after all but the combination just doesn't do it for me. I'm happy it's successful tho, cause I love Luke.

I don't know. I loved Paz Vega. Her and Maria Valverde were definitely the best thing about that movie.

I guess I'd be interested to see Caterina in "Da Vinci's Demons" because it'd be a different Caterina, a young pre-Borgias Caterina – one where she's married to the main villain of the show. And Blake Ritson is definitely brilliant as Riario. So I think that could be interesting. (Plus, I once read this novel "The Madonna of Forlì" by Frederick Berger on Caterina... still one of my favourite historical novels ever.)

The thing that always makes me cringe on "The Musketeers" is how they pronounce d'Artagnan. Obviously I only wish good things for people, so I'm glad for Luke that he has this gig but I haven't seen him grow as an actor. He's not bad but it helps that he's pretty I guess. As I said, overall I think the show is too uncreative, a bit stale. Nothing I haven't seen being done with the source material before. Anyway... wrong thread for that. I'll have to rewatch Peter's episode and really pay attention... somehow these episodes always seem to blur together for me.

Thank you for the info, Nina.

DGSAFDMD

Not so sure about Paz Vega simply because she was in it for like 2 minutes. Maybe if she would have had more scenes?

Maria Valverde was a great Lucrezia tho, I have mixed feelings with the Lucrezias, there are things I like from all of them but there are things I absolutely hate of all of them as well but in Maria's case it was mostly to do with the writing... so I dunno.

I get to see Peter in Indian Summers tomorrow

BL.Arinna_1982

Good! Tell us about the movie after you watch it.

DGSAFDMD

Indian Summers as mentioned before, is a show Arinna

He looked GOOD. I tried to find some caps of him but nothing so far and unfortunately I haven't downloaded this ep yet. But trust me. He looks GOOD

BL.Arinna_1982

If you're saying...

DGSAFDMD

So Peter has a new show? I saw a gif of him in a medical show called "Critical" but I never heard of it before?

BL.Arinna_1982

I think so?

cheekymonkey503

It's a shame, I'm not big on medical dramas. His character sounds like the Trauma Surgeon version of House.
