This review contains slight spoilers for the end of season two so if you've not seen it then skip the following paragraph.The action follows on immediately from the nail biting finale of Season two with our Borgia pope fighting for his life following Della Rovere's poisoning as the avaricious cardinals vie to become Alexander's successor.The depth of political intrigue makes West Wing look like a kitten playing with string and it is impossible to describe any of the goings-on without completely spoiling the season. Suffice to say that Cesare continues to be unappreciated as he strives to further cement the papacy's hold over the squabbling family states while Lucrezia struggles with the consequences of her conflicted amorous feelings. Throughout the seemingly endless labyrinthine plotting, shifting allegiances and messy deaths, the splendidly reliable and implacable Michelotto continues to shine as the apparently only trustworthy person in the whole country.With the same obsessive production values, huge cast and sumptuous costumes & locations it is sadly no surprise that again, the network bean-counters axed the show before the fourth and final planned season citing the financial cost as the main reason. Also, I somewhat cynically & perhaps pretentiously suspect that the writing and plot design were just too elegant and complex for the American mass audience. Whatever the reason, it is a shame that they wouldn't even finance a final two hour `wind-up' episode to satisfy the enthralled audience as the extant season three does end somewhat abruptly. Notwithstanding the ending, this season is a must for anyone gripped by the intricacies of 15th Century Italian politics. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, Lush Production of Historical Legend *by A***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 November 2013* This series is worth seeing over and over again for it's outstanding acting performances from all the characters, the visually rich production (costumes, interiors and locations) and the intelligent and entertaining dialogues.It is obvious that no cost was spared in producing this series. It is also obvious that great care was taken in casting all the roles - all the actors are serious professionals, making every person seem important (as they are) to the telling of the story. It's a pity this series didn't receive more media attention and awards.The story line of the Borgias in this series is based primarily on the worst poisonous rumors about their lives, but understandable since it makes the story easier to tell, and in some ways, far more interesting. However, some of the outlandish scenarios that seem too ludicrous to be true did actually happen - but just did not involve the Borgias!*The packaging was a disappointment. The season 1 and season 2 DVD sets consisted of 2 plastic boxes each containing 2 discs each, so that you wouldn't have to wrestle with all four discs (being layered on top of one another) at once, as is the case with this season 3 set.It also would have benefitted from more information about who played which roles, as well as production credits.*For a well researched and astonishing look at the real lives of the Borgias, try "The Borgias, The Hidden History", by G.J. Meyer, also purchased on this site. A riveting book that is hard to put down! The Borgias: The Hidden History ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Addictive Drama *by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 December 2013* Whereas Season two was sort of bogged down by the slowly emerging conflict between Cesare and Juan, season three offers a more elaborate plot.Father Borgia struggles to reform the Church and surviving it, Cesare strives to become his own man, while Lucrezia faces another failed marriage and tries to find consolation with dear Cesare who finds his own passion aflame. Congratulations to the writers of the script to handle the topic incest with empathy, even giving its own melancholic score. Cesare and Lucrezia come across as two children who simply fall in love because there is no one else for them.The Season also offers solid political lessons. One feels the Borgia pope has received a lot of bad publicity from people who envy him for being better at the game than they are. After all, the Bible really makes no mention of celibacy, conclaves and other parts of the catholic dogma. Jeremy Irons portrays the pope as an astute politician whose only sin is loving his family more than his god. François Arnaud becomes his dark blade, sometimes awing his own henchman and earning the admiration of his friend and advisor Machiavelli.All in all, it is worth your money. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Borgias - Season 3 [DVD] - The Borgias - Season 2 [DVD] - The Borgias - Season 1 [DVD] [2017] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/209514572-the-borgias-season-3-dvd](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/209514572-the-borgias-season-3-dvd) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
