In the last 36 hours I have discovered The Tudors. I cannot begin to tell you how this has wreaked havoc on my other plans for the weekend, especially when I have to keep getting dragged out the front door. All I can do is point to my icon and say, "WTF, Y'all?!" Why didn't anybody tell me about this? (Not you, [livejournal.com profile] ethrosdemon, you don't count b/c we never like the same thing at the same time. )

Seriously I'm only up to 1.05, so don't spoil me, but it's got craziness everywhere, intrigue, insanity, gayness, and when did Henry Cavill get hot? He was always so thin and not beef-noodle hearty (TM [livejournal.com profile] ethrosdemon). I feel cheated! Of course he's gay, everybody hot is gay. Typical ;-) It also has Fiona from Burn Notice, and I don't even mind Johnathan Rhys Meyers here, even though I've always thought he was extremely dodgy and unattractive, it works here. I wonder if he hits on Henry Cavill in RL?

In related questioning, does anybody have any recommendations for good Henry VIII reading? I'm looking for more court-related and less military-based. Ideally, I'd like a book that focuses on Henry himself through the years and his relationships as opposed to a POV from the wives or kids. Also, don't recommend Antonia Fraser as I don't like her writing. ETA: Non-fictional preferred over fictional.

I was totally thinking he is, and More is his Lloyd!

Ack, oh my god, all I'm seeing now is the Entourage Tudors AU, where Ari is running around bitching about the stupid dress he has to wear and drags a scribe everywhere with him (as his crackberry of course), and Vince is just lounging around in bubble shorts and hose and a kind of drunk smile, dropping wives like a bad habit while Eric runs around bitching about why can't Vince just make *one* of them stick, jesus, the whole world is fucking watching, Christ, your mother would be so pissed.

And Turtle and Drama are off trying to bang courtesans, only they all have their eyes on Vince, so mainly they just go horseback riding a lot and try to hunt really badly.

Oh god, please make it go away. There is no way in hell I am actually writing that.
