Mysticism vs Science
29 April 2013
Although I applaud anything that celebrates science, and DD does this, although in a overly fantastic manner. But why do they find a need to mix in mysticism? The complete opposite of science. The show constantly implies a mystical connection between the great mind and a secret order of magicians. Why? Sure, mysticism was a big part of life at the time, but isn't the point of Leonardo's journey to strive against ignorance and "magic"? The show isn't bad, as long as it does not get "Lost", I will keep watching!

The actors do a good enough job of making things interesting but I keep waiting for the next invention and not the conflicts. I love the use of the pope as the villain!

Ps: The music is really good!
