Reviews (1)
In the fourth episode, the creators finally got into some more cohesive action, and it was immediately noticeable in the plot. To make matters even better, I was pleased with the Pope's intrigues, so the only thing that bothered me a little was the usual: "Well, let me tell you, that was one battle." I understand that the budget doesn't allow it, but it saddens me that all the important fights happen off-screen. ()
