The Tudors

[The Lady Mercedes]

So it's the series finale next week...what say you about the final season? Me, I'm sad but the memory will live on in dvd lol

So whaat did you think of the final episode.  I really liked the first 3 years, but year 4 I thought was a little lacking - maybe trying to put too much in with so little time.  Would have really liked to see the series go through Edward, Mary and Elizabeth 

[The Lady Mercedes]

Ditto! The last scene seemed a bit empty, I was expecting a big ol' heart tugging deathbed scene that never happened & the thing w/the wives could've been done a bit better...but all the same I will miss the show

I think with the show being called "The Tudors", they should've started with Henry VII, and went on till the end of Elizabeth.

That being said.....I was disappointed in the ending. They did nothing to age him or make him fat throughout except graying his hair. Then suddenly in the final episode they age his face, give him a big gray beard? Eh. I didn't expect an epic finale, but I definitely didn't expect them to suddenly age him when they hadn't been....

Oh well. I still like the series for what it is....and we probably won't get another Henry show for some time....

it did go by way to fast for the 4th set. but rather good. i like his mental thing he had toward the end i feel like that with alot of people and ex's.

I finally just finished all 38 episodes. I admit, I was personally entertained with it all.

I think they got about 50% of it right. Rhys Meyers isnt even a redhead to start with and it difficult to age people on screen without it looking phoney. They showed grey and the horrible leg infections he got. It would be a really long series to cover also Edwards VI, Mary's and Elizabeth's reigns. There so much material, so it's hard to cover all of even one of them much less Henry 7 down to Elizabeth. Yes, I have all 4 seasons on my shelf also

Some aspects I felt were done well such as the Pilgrimage of Grace. Others  aspects like combining Princess Margaret and Mary was a step to far and the whole bit but about shipping her off to Portugal was way off.
