I give it 5 stars instead of 1 because if the aim was to make a soap opera they fulfil their goal. And for that it is somewhat entertaining and the costume design is really good. I don't like soap operas so didn't want to be a judge on this category.
Such a strong character, a women ahead of her time. Beautiful, smart, determined in a time such traits were unattractive for women.
How do you take on such a person's amazing story and make it a "blah" soap opera? It really saddens me. And it is bad to the point you get lost in soap opera nonsense and the story loses emotional highs that would be a definitely plus to it.
It is a historical onde so I don't believe I am delivering any spoilers.
This woman survived Henry VIII wife killing tendency. More, she was really loved by him for her beauty and personality for most of their marriage.
Honestly, I didn't feel this intense love while watching the tv show and it bothers me that somehow writers are driven to spoil such a good story to begin with.
