Last night Chris and I watched the first episode of the Showtime television series The Tudors. This show is awesome! I already love the British (pre)Renaissance era with all the turmoil of religion, war and cultural happenings. Couple that with great acting, costumes and scripts and the show is a winner in my book!
This show begins with the introduction of Henry VIII as a fairly young man who is (unfaithfully) married to a Spanish woman named Catherine of Aragon. They focus on his greed, desire to become immortal and love of women. And pretty much in every scene he's eating something. I wonder if they'll make Jonathan gain weight as the show progresses?
Anyway, I recommend Netflixing this show!

You should read The Pillars of the Earth... it's about that same period and the building of a cathedral. I think it's going to be made into a tv mini series. the book is 970 pages... but it's a good read.
that's Pastor anony mom to you!
chris just finished reading that! he also liked it.
it's hard for me to take on 970 pages...
That main dude is HOT. Even in a deep v-neck! haha
i know! and even though he's extremely arrogant in the show...in a way, it's sorta hot.
