In which Sky is excited for TV again.

Is anyone else really excited for The Tudors? SO. FREAKING. EXCITED. FOR IT.

(I ought to start getting new icons.)

Not sure if it can displace my current television obsessions (and indeed, it will be difficult as I don't get Showtime)...

Yet as some sort of writer/historian, I'm intrigued. Historical fiction especially interests me, as a fusion of storytelling and analysis, and a struggle or reconciliation of the two disciplines.

And a very interesting casting choice for Henry...

Go watch the trailers thingys under "Video" as I believe there's one about why they chose JRM. I think. They showed that one in the theater when I went to see Zodiac. I was skeptical at first too, but I totally think that JRM can do it. (Plus, he's pretty. So I will have fun watching it if nothing else.)

I wasn't, because I didn't know anything about it.

Now I am.

OMG, SO EXCITED.

Aren't you the friend of mine that organized her AIM buddy list in accordance with his wives?

Yes. Hee.

Once you do, might you be persuaded to share?

[identity profile] cerulean-sky.livejournal.com 2007-03-07 07:58 am (UTC)(link)
It would take very little persuasion, I think, but yes.

Anything you're looking for? I did find some JRM/Henry VIII ones somewhere...

Henry VIII ones would be charming. But just some various things. I mean, you have such lovely ones.

What sort of icons would you like? :D

Icons! (http://community.livejournal.com/affairedevanite/17324.html)

I'll have to chat with you about it later.

Jonathan Rhys-Meyers is too pretty for me to take seriously. But the previews I've seen look awesome.

I totally can't wait. I really hope they keep it as historically accurate as possible.
