On hotness...
Watched more of The Tudors and really. How can people object to it when there is so much hot male (and female if that's your thing) flesh about, either in period clothes or verrrrry naked? Seriously. I know I sound shallow but oh well. Plus, all that carping about JRM not looking like Henry. I find myself not caring when I stare at the cheekbones. The history is screwy but I have no problem just viewing it as some AU fantasy type stuff. Sexy fun fantasy, that is. I know this will brand me a total heretic on my flist, but I like it so much better than Rome, which was also pretty ahistorical but also had characters I wasn't very interested in and no sex appeal :) The Tudors otoh, has no redeeming brain value but it way way too fun.
And also, on a shallow note. I have started Sensual Phrase, the manga I mentioned earlier, and heeeeee. I am on page eight or so and the hero is already groping the heroine where people don't unless they are fairly well aquainted (upper leg, if you must know). Heeeee. If The Tudors is my guilty TV pleasure, Sensual Phrase is my guilty manga pleasure. Except I don't feel guilty in the least :)
