I want to see what it was like to live in Versailles! Very Neat!
I like
ALEXANDER VLAHOS as Philippe because he is a good actor.
Excited about this series, I visited Versailles when I was in Paris I was in awe of the beauty of everything.
The costumes appeal to me because they look so antique and unique. It seems to be an interesting show.
I like the time period. Plus all the beautiful places in Europe.
Everything!
I’ve recently been into period dramas – if the story is well-written and the characters are well-developed, it’s so easy to get hooked! The costumes in Versailles look beautifully designed and it looks like something I’d watch.
I can’t wait to watch, I’ve found this time period to be incredibly fascinating
I love the costumes. My old neighbor was the head of the costume department at the college and she got me interested in period costumes. They are so beautiful.
This show looks great. I love to watch shows with period costuming!
The terrific cast and time period appeal to me. I like shows from different eras.
Since I studied French for 4 years in high school, had a French pen-pal and visited there thrive I am fascinated with anything French particularly Versailles and that time period
The lavish dinner parties and that the colors used in the video previews make it look like an piece of ART (painting)
I love that the series captured the lavish rooms, furniture and dress of the period. It looks like pure eye candy. I look forward to watching this visually complex show. I hadn’t heard of it before.
It just looks interesting and I like watching new movies and shows.
I love the period costumes!
It looks like a series that can get into, because it seems to have the European flavor, the essence of a long ago era, and the costumes/scenery look marvelous.
I love the costuming…I used to work in a College Drama Dept making costumes like these
I like the time period that is being portrayed. I’ve always loved reading and watching movies set in this time period whether real or fiction!
this doesn’t appeal to me-sorry!
