selenakDay 30 ~ How would you end the show?
Given that there won't be another season after the third one, i.e. the show will end with Lorenzo, well, I've already written how I'd tell that story. If, otoh, there would be another season, then, as mentioned two posts previously, I'd go for another time jump and the young Catherine de' Medici as the central character, with the supporting cast including Uncle Giulio (aka Pope Clement, Giuliano's kid), dastardly cousin Alessandro (the Pope's illegitimate son, which yep, makes him a bastard's bastard), future hero of a drama by Alfred de Musset cousin Lorenzacchio (Alessandro's future assassin) and possible first love cousin Ippolito. In many ways, this was a downfall era for the Medici (both politically and morally), and they'd gone from being loved to being hated in Florence, but otoh, traumatic as it was for child and teenage Catherine, it shaped her into the hardcore survivor she became. So I'd end with Catherine, last descendant of the direct line from Cosimo to Lorenzo to her, leaving Italy for good and arriving at the French court to start a new story as not yet Queen of France.
