The Tudors, Showtime
Not surprisingly, Showtime has renewed “The Tudors” for a third season.

Showtime made the renewal announcement yesterday, with production expected to begin in June for a 2009 premiere.

Robert Greenblatt, head of Showtime Entertainment said, “‘The Tudors’ is now a fixture for us at Showtime, and we’re on our way to completing the entire saga of all six wives of Henry VIII. We are enormously proud of this show, the extraordinary cast, and the production team that recreates the grandeur of the Renaissance year in and year out.”

In the current season of “The Tudors,” Henry VIII (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) is only on his second wife, Anne Boleyn (Natalie Dormer) — there are still four more wives, so I’d expect the series to carry on for additional seasons.

    Honestly, I think this show is quite mediocre. I WANT to like it, since I really enjoying period dramas, but it just is not compelling. I believe the problem is with the writing or with the post-production editing. There are so many half-told subplots (e.g. Henry’s sister, Margaret – what are we really supposed to know about he?; the court musician – everything he does seems to be a non-sequiter in the story; Wollsey – why exactly does everyone hate him? a little more background would be nice; I mean, why do other court schemers think he is worse than they are – there must be a reason).
    The costumes and sets are fantastic. Most of the actors are quite good. Unfortunately, I find Jonathan Rhys-Meyers to have a rather narrow range of acting ability and the Anne Boleyn actor is simply annoying. I can’t image getting through Season 2 if she’s in every episode (I’m watching Season 1 right now).

What do you think?
