Captain Treville (The Musketeers) - an appreciation
While "The Musketeers" focuses on d'Artagnan and his three best buddies, the BBC version of Captain Jean-Armand Treville has become my favorite character of the show.

Oh yes, so true. And I love his face palms or when he has his rare smiles or the scene where Aramis and Athos reveal that Aramis had slept with the queen. Just wonderful stuff.
I actually liked the scars! He's a veteran of a bazillion campaigns, so it made sense for them to be there.
Yep, same here. But I also appreciate the sexier look. *g*
I mean, seriously, I think the first and the last episode in series 2 are the only ones in which he doesn't leave his shirt unlaced, and sometimes even for no good reason other than to show off some skin? XD
It was episode 3 and 9 IIRC ;-) And I love that unlaced shirt. So. Much. XD
but so far Treville has shown more skin in one season that Athos in both!
I think I read somewhere that Tom doesn't want to get nekkid, because he hates to work out. Well, I don't think he gives himself enough credit...
(I think Porthos didn't get his kit off this season either? Really, I have to rewatch, only watched every s2 ep once so far, apart from ep5)
Has he ever gotten out of his clothes? I really don't remember... No, I was wrong. He slept with his old girlfriend and the widow.
but it's grown on me (not literally though, thank God XD).
Oh god, now I have pictured you with that beard *lol*
Either way I wouldn't want to go back to the s1 look. He cleaned up nicely so to speak. Yes indeed. :)
(actually I'm sure the silhouette is Aramis, because of the beard!)<(/i>
I rechecked and you are right. There goes my theory *sighs*
(Plus, everyone else got pretty action shots, even Capaldieu does some twirling in the s1 intro, so why not Treville? He could totally twirl! Or open his shirt. What do I know? *g*)
YES, Season 3 intro with Treville opening his shirt. WANT. NOW!

You know, come to think of it you should have mentioned his sarcasm more explicitly in your post. ;) Oh, and his wonderfully vitriolic relationship with the cardinal! I loved those two together. Ugh, I miss that carnivorous French flamigo. They could have had so many more beaufiful episodes in which they were forced to work together.
I'm sure that with the new haircut + beard they could have pulled off a sexier look without having to get rid of the scars completely.

Of course! It's pretty much the other reason I love 1x08 so much. Porthos ends up being such a (shirtless ;) ) gentleman. ♥

Aw, poor guy!

Clearly I have to start my rewatch soon!

Yes, that one is great. But I'd love to see a sultry smile next season :p ;)

You are right. Sarcasm has been added ^^
Clearly I have to start my rewatch soon! Well, I might watch a couple with you, if you want to *g*
