Too many 'pretty boys' as leads in this Season 2. Save for Matteo Matari (Francesco de Pazzi) the rest have a direct impact on the 'connection' to the script which was not the issue with any of Season One's episodes - it was solidly cast and drew all viewers in. No explanation, save in the brief noting '...the late Cosimo', is given for 'Cosimo's' (Richard Madden) absence from the script This is a huge omission and it seems a whole new team of script writers have replaced the first. Lastly the initial episode is more 'formula' than engaging. The script one only hopes the rest is worth watching but it also seems to dragging a source for 'Romeo and Juliet' as a subplot.
