About this show

THE TUDORS will present the rarely dramatized, tumultuous early years of King Henry VIII's nearly 40-year, omnipotent reign (1509-1547) of England. In addition to his famous female consorts, a 20+ year marriage to Catherine of Aragon and the infamous dalliance with Anne Boleyn, the series delves into Henry's most notable political relationship and the deconstruction of the Roman Catholic Church in England.

Is not very accurate of history. With that being said, this is one of the best series there has ever been on TV. *Spoiler alert* below : The 3rd seaon isn't very exciting and it felt as though the writers didn't know which "alternate" history path they wanted to take.

This show has everything a man or woman desires in a series. History, drama, suspense, mystery, and romance. I got hooked just watching 5 minutes of the 2nd episode of season 1. Go figure remote surfing would throw me in the golden age of lust and leadership. Thumbs up!
