Will Alexander, having survived an attempted assassination, gain the ultimate upper hand and secure his children's future? History offers no solace the series has made regular, at-times dramatic departures from history, meaning anything can - and does - happen. But while death is ever a certainty, the nature of the Pope and his family's fates are anything but certain, and the thrill of watching the third season is finding out what will become of the devilishly devious Borgias.

The Borgias is House of Cards by way of 15th century Rome, and in creator Neil Jordan's final season, Pope Alexander and his insatiable children are forced to face the one enemy Alexander can't thwart, bribe or manipulate: the wages of sin.

If power corrupts and corrupts absolutely, imagine the potential for corruption within a man considered infallible. Reviewed by Kenneth Brown, August 3, 2013 "God or the devil? Whatever it is, it overwhelms." The Borgias: The Third Season Blu-ray Review
