Anyone else watch Cosmos with Neil Degrasse Tyson? How did you feel about the potrayal of Giordano Bruno?

Hey all,

I'm actually a Renaissance History historian who focuses on mysticism and Bruno is actually one of my research subjects. The Christ like fashion in which Bruno was represented (a martyr for science) both cracked me up and made me sad they failed to put him in his mystical religious context. His memory belongs with Pico and Ficino, not Gallieleo and Newton. Am I wrong?
