Well, of course, who else? This looks like my kind of show and we do subscribe to STARZ. I hope I remember to tune in or it doesn't conflict with something else on Sunday nights.

 

I didn't really like the white queen. I seen it awhile ago but I remember I could not stand the white queen or the guy she married. But I will probably watch this just because I like these types of shows.

 

I didn't get to see it as we were at my sister-in-laws. Barely made it home in time to watch the Leftovers at nine. I'll try to catch up. Can't say I'll be successful with viewing it in real time as we usually eat dinner at my folks on Sun. and I often don't get home in time to catch the 8pm time slot. That's why I had to give up watching Once Upon a Time. I'm gonna try though since you gave it a good review.

 

ah! it's a new show!! i changed channels just when the pillars of the earth marathon was over. darn. i thought somehow it was the white queen. i will definitely catch up and watch it. thanks, everyone.

 

I finally saw the premiere and I thought it was pretty good. Now I have to do some research on the War of the Roses so I can get more of a handle on the characters and what was going on at that time period in England.

If it turns out I keep missing it, I'll try to record it. For some reason I can't get my Starz on demand to work but it'll be one or the other.

 

i like it very much. i sort of wish i had missed an initial run so i could now watch episode after episode. just have to wait.

my on demand offers a behind the scenes snippet that says for the home of the white princess they used an honest-to-goodness house of that era so the audience would immediately get the genuine feel of the times. neato.

 

@southernlady, i was fascinated that the rule was you were not a traitor if you fought against the new king in the decisive battle, so long as you pledged fealty to the new king after the win. what a startling and sensible way to curb what would be endless fighting.

then for henry to ignore the rule and declare he was king the day before the battle!!!! i was so shocked, i realized how easily i had adopted the rule of the times.

and, wouldn't everyone have wondered abt the paternity of the baby? seems like he should have kept her in isolation for a while as step one to getting an heir.

 

i am so gullible.

 

wow, i didn't know abt that. i had to look for why they would object. not wanting to harm the architecture makes sense to me, but at the same time, yes, it is too bad.

i was astonished and glad they found richard so they could give him a decent resting place. the car park just happened over time and was a good protective cover, as i saw it.

this is what i read abt the bones probably of the princes. it won't be newsy to you guys, but it was fascinating to me.
