The costumes and the set look amazing. Very detailed and perfect for the time period.
It looks interesting. I do hope they show the foods and meals that were enjoyed during that time period. I always like to see what other’s ate in the past.
I love this one butter LONDON Nail Lacquer, Purple Shades, Lovely Jubbly, love the color and love the sparkle in it.
I am looking forward to watching this, I love how they have the characters set back in that time. I think this is going to be a hit in my home.

I like the characters.
Looks like an interesting series. In particular, I’m looking forward to seeing the gorgeous sets and costumes.
Oops, forgot to say why. I enjoy historical dramas, and when they’re well done, you can learn as much from the settings, costumes, make-up, etc. as you can from the story.
I’ve always enjoyed Ovation programs, and the costuming and scenery look gorgeous!
Getting to see how life was like in France at that time interests me.
The historical aspect of this series intrigues me . The costuming, the political atmosphere, and the culture will be interesting to see
I scrolled through the cast of the show.. looks like a talented bunch!
Looks like a great show!
I love the fabulous sets! Versailles was a scene of unparalleled indulgence and I can appreciate that.
The scenery and costumes are beautiful! I love series about history. This looks really good!
Of all the Characters featured, I think Fabian, The Chief of police seems the most fascinating. He sounds very dangerous , thus it adds a bit of realism to the film. As a food Historian, however, I am looking forward to any mention of food, hopefully at least one meal will be depicted.
i’m very fascinated with that time period
I love classic time period stories. It seems like it’s not all blood and gore like some popular shows right now.
This show look good. I would like to see a different time age how they lived and a different Country and their culture.
I like that it is about life in a castle, but it isn’t always a happy plot since the king has enemies.
I am interested in this show because I really like historical fiction (and all things French) so I’m very curious about this one. It looks like a beautifully done show.
I love dramas, and this one looks scandalous! I love shows with a lot of twists and turns.
