I love period pieces. Getting to see how people lived in past times has always appealed to me.
I love a good story
Be interesting to see how they handle the king’s brother.
Sorry to say it does not appeal to me. I just don’t like period dramas. Sorry but I must be honest.
I like watching shows about different eras in history. This site provides info about the show and cast.
This looks like it is going to be visually stunning and entertaining.
Love the history!
I like the era. I have always been a history buff
Love the time period, everything was so proper and quaint from the etiquette to the clothing.
i love history, so the period dressing drew me in….
After having toured the palace on a trip to France – I can’t wait to see the series – have it DVR’d!

I’m a lover of history, so I love the setting.
I love shows that are based in different periods. I really enjoy the sets and the costumes.
I’m always most interested in the costuming for historical shows. I love to see the fabrics, and how the women are dressed. It always seems to spark my creativity in other areas!
the costumes from that time are unbelievable. ornate and lots of layers. I couldn’t deal with that.
I like the costumes!
