Thanks for the update! Maybe I should see if the first season will be out on
DVD, I could use a good comedy series to watch.

Yes, the post I got was from Peace Arch, a rather bizarre name for a film
production company. My favorite part of the post was also from an
explanation of the series, something about Henry taking on the "all-powerful
Catholic Church." That statement begs for arguments of all sorts, but the
best one is that if he got rid of it, then it wasn't exactly all-powerful!

This one is pretty good, too, especially the part about Elizabeth being the
greatest ruler in English history. One of them, sure. But that's quite a
claim. How about, say, William the Conquerer?

Oh well, I guess it will be around for at least one more year...
