Good Morning Avalonians. (9.00 BST)

I think it's fair to say not many of us watch television 'programmes' any more. I only go on MSM's Online tabloids like the Mirror or Daily Mail 'AKA' Daily Snail, AKA Daily Fail, anyway to the point, I read these for entertaining purposes also to see the kind of tactics they are using to manipulate the Muggles.

I use a programme called Kodi to watch ANYTHING for free on my Laptop (PM me and I could instruct you on a simple how to do if you want to use it- IT'S AMAZING.) I came across a TV Series called Da Vinci's Demons33615. This show is fascinating to say the least. There obviously is a bit of fiction in it to attract audiences, but surprisingly a lot of what is in the History books around the renaissance period, is portrayed in on the show the same as what History tells us. The show is also full of symbolic language. Even Moloch the Owl makes several appearances in the Flesh also in scenes in the background.

It also shows the cleverness of in my Opinion, one of the greatest minds to Walk the Earth. You even see a scene when the Pazi family are conspiring against the De Medici family, a family I came across about 15 years ago, and it's a testament to the writers how close to historic fact the scenes are.

To top it off, it gives us an insight into how Leornado's Mind worked. Expertly Written.

Have a good Day.

Kev :)

I have to be informed about all mediaoutlets. Since I teach Film- and Gamestudents. Watched the first Season, started out quite interesting but the Protagonist turned bisexual quite soon and one had to watch scenes of men having sex with eachother for quite some minutes, felt like a gay softporn, so I stopped there.
Itīs pretty much fantasy apart from that.

Better entertainment (in my eyes):
Outcast (Demonic possessions and Exorcisms (no FearPorn))
12 Monkeys the series (about Timetravel)
Grimm (Brothers Grimm Tales in modern Times)
Preacher (over the Top adaption of one of the wildest Comics ever)
The Magicians (Harry Potter for Adults)
Penny Deadful (beautiful done, mystic Team fight Evil in the Spirit of "The League of extraordinary Gentlemen")

If one need a break from reality, I recommend these

And not to forget the great TV-Series "Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2548418/

An alternative history set in 19th-century England around the time of the Napoleonic Wars, it is based on the premise that magic once existed in England and has returned with two men: Gilbert Norrell and Jonathan Strange.

Its pure magic ;-)
