The lovely and awesome
edda sent me a preview DVD of The Tudors that contains the first two episodes of the series and some The Tudors articles with purdy pictures and a sweet note written in a runic language. Thank you, darling! You totally made my day.
I tore through both episodes and enjoyed myself thoroughly. It's a sexy, rollicking romp.
I haven't been to the TWOP forums for the longest time and I went there just now to see what people are saying about the show and wow. Humorless nitpicking and showing off of one's knowledge of Tudor history everywhere and not a drop of funny snark to be found.
