The Tudors
2007
This historically loose but visually lush Showtime series toasts the world of the Tudors in the days when King Henry VIII (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers) was a handsome and charming 25-year-old with athletic abilities and sexual prowess. The young king indulges his voracious taste for ladies-in-waiting, hangs out with his entourage of nobles and makes momentous political decisions. The stellar cast includes Jeremy Northam and Sam Neill.

Too heavy on sex and too light on story. Unfortunate because this is a visually stunning show, and could have been excellent.
