Da Vinci's life was already extroaordinary. I fail to understand why the writers felt the need change history and to insert an unnecessary major character like Caterina da Cremona. What for? Furthermore, I cannot understand the actress Matilda de Angelis's whispering throughout the 8 episodes. She rarely spoke clearly. Maybe she thinks it makes her more alluring. Not! Aiden Turner is the reason I gave this 2 stars. He shows some real acting skills in this.

Sorry I couldn't give it no star. Nothing ever happens. The young Cousteaus self-promotion using their father's great accomplishments. Each episode could have been done in 5 mins. Flat. Went under water and found nothing. The end.

Not a promising 1st episode---totally implausible plot!

Warning: Spoilers
Watched the first episode Innan frosten (Before the Frost). The stupidest plot for such a celebrated series. So full of holes that even a layman like myself spotted them from miles away! Wallander's daughter, Linda, was clearly not ready to serve on the force and sorely needed to go back to the Police Academy for more training. The last bit towards the end was the most ludicrous. When 2 police discovered a van filled with explosives would they BOTH just walked away without securing it or called in for more support? I watched some of 2nd season and I think the writing improved quite a bit. I'm just really surprised by the lack of editing on the writing level regarding the plot before the filming. Thank goodness for series like Vera!
