This started on Friday here in the UK. This is good entertaining brain candy, not for the historically discerning. While I think Jonathan Rhys-Myers is hot as hell, with each season he looks less and less like Henry VIII - he should be in fat suit by now! But the frocks are nice, even if all the women are impossibly good looking. :)

Heh. Yeah, 99% of the time in historical dramas the actors are way better looking than the people they're supposed to represent. A lot cleaner and more attentive to dental hygiene too. ;)

I haven't seen an episode of The Tudors, but I did once spend some time ogling the costuming. It's not my favorite fashion era, but it's still very pretty.
