Talkie Tuesday: The Tudors (season 4)

Hello everyone!

So instead of doing a recap on something I watched down at the seaside during my vacation, I decided that I should quite probably round up my series of recaps and reviews for the TV show that had everybody buzzing back between 2007 and 2010.

If you've guessed it's the Tudors, you got it right! 

Sadly, I don't have any appropriate reward for that particular guess, except the review which will follow in a little bit after the break in the post. I know it's been a while - probably more than a month, actually, if I think about it right, because I finished watching the last season of the show (this being the fourth one) right before I had to leave for vacation. Since I didn't have any internet on vacation at all, I had to save this and stash it away somewhere so that I wouldn't forget to do it when I got back home.

So now, without further ado, and to make sure Maegan is a happy camper and proud that I've managed to achieve this, let's get on to the review of season four!

Talkie Tuesday: The Tudors (season 3)

Hello everyone!

So here we are again, right back where we seem to always wind up nowadays every once in a while, right? Right. As I promised my girl Maegan, I'm definitely watching through the whole of the Tudors television series, but that does mean I get Tudor-overwhelmed every once in a while, and so I make it a point to watch something else entirely in between two seasons. Which is why Game of Thrones came into play, persay, the previous week ago, and this week it's all about the Royals, which I will hopefully be able to write about next Tuesday!

On another note, I'm definitely packing things up on the computer for my vacation, which is apparently a go, and that means hoarding movies together that I haven't been able to watch yet because, you know, stress and job hunting as well as this binge watching of TV shows has kind of made it impossible. But never fear! I'll come back from the seaside with so many movie reviews to talk about, I'll probably have these Tuesdays covered until Christmas.

And also, remember everyone: go and watch Batman vs. Superman when it hits theatres because it has Henry Cavill in it, and our very own Charles Brandon definitely likes the support!

Talkie Tuesday: The Tudors (season 2)

Hello everyone!

And I'm back, with yet another Tudors review. One would think that I've had enough after the one I did for the first season, but nope, one would be wrong!

Can you tell I've been watching Game of Thrones recently and that Jagen H'Ghar is probably one of the best characters ever? 

Anyway.

My friend Maegan definitely has a say in this, obviously, considering she seems to have liked the review I did on the first season, and she asked that I continue with these until I'm done with the show! Which basically means two down after this, and two more to get through!

But then, when you get to look at Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Henry Cavill on screen, I don't think anyone would really complain, now, would they?

Talkie Tuesday: The Tudors (season 1)

Hello everyone!

So last week, I talked about how I was watching a TV show and needed to finish it before I would write about it. I can now happily confirm that I've watched the full first season of The Tudors, and after a break during which I finished Hawaii Five-0 season 5 (yes, yes this isn't a blog post about THAT, but I recommend it. It's SO. GOOD.) I plan on starting season two.  

So, the Tudors is an older show which has already finished, as most of you probably already know (if not, you just learned). It ran for four seasons, with ten episodes in three seasons and eight in one. Since it ran between 2007 and 2010 (or was it 2011?), you're probably all wondering the same thing:

how come I'm talking about this now?

Well, here it goes: my friend Maegan and I were talking at one point, and one thing led to the other, which eventually led to Henry Cavill. This went on to the Tudors, and the conversation suddenly turned into something like this:

Maegan: It's my favourite show ever, I rewatch episodes so much.

Me: I'm almost ashamed to admit that I've never watched it from start to finish, just random eps.

Maegan: WHAT?

Me: Um ... I've never seen the Tudors, strictly speaking?

Maegan: BLASPHEMY! WE MUST CHANGE THIS!

Haha, okay, it wasn't EXACTLY like that. But we DID decide that, for my home schooling project titled 'How to make sure you DEFINITELY watch The Tudors', Maegan and I decided to watch the show together.
