Showtime launched a new series last year called, The Tudors starring Jonathan Rhys as a young King Henry The VIII. At first, I didn’t pay much attention to the show (partly because I am not a Showtime subscriber), but when season one become available on DVD at my local library I became an immediate fan. Rhys is pretty convincing as the angst ridden king, though I may be a bit bias given his role in Woody Allen’s Match Point.
