The Young Pope and the New Pope

What are your thoughts in this two series? I found the first one very interesting. The second one surely has a very intriguing plot (a pope wakes from a coma to see another man in his post) but seems to have too much erotic-ish scenes. Do you intend to watch it or it seems too inappropriate?

I may give it a shot. The Young Pope was kind of trippy and I definitely didn’t hate it. Some of the inaccuracies were pretty silly, but overall it was entertaining.

“The Young Pope Season 2 aka The New Pope” has not yet been released in the US. Happens in January.

Yes, I am talking about the trailer. Honestly, I found they went too far. There is one scene the “new pope” is in a photo session and he asks: “no nudes?”.

Fictional pope has a sense of humor? I can’t see that as going too far.

The Young Pope played an important role in my conversion to Catholicism. Just goes to show you God works where you are. Which in my case were expensive TV productions for an “adult audience.” I was drawn in by the truth that emanated from the screen and I even learned to pray from a very real scene where the Pope teaches a spiritually vulnerable woman how to pray properly.

That prayer advice I try to apply as it’s actually valuable true and good advice despite it being a tv show.
