The art of tv critique

I haven't seen the last episode of The Borgias yet, but I've read this article by the New York Review of Books and it is mostly about what makes the show a terrible series.

To be fair -- even though I still don't consider The Borgias to be a very good show-- if we put aside the historical inaccuracies and the formulaic stuff, there are also some neat things in Jordan's series here and there.

I wonder if the same journalist will write something on the upcoming Borgia series by Tom Fontana that is supposed to be faithful to history.
