That, plus the hot steamy sex scenes that are so prevalent in the series.

Seriously, that show is pretty much a mix between soap opera and hard-core porn.
Alas, though, the show only airs on HBO, and I do not have that channel.
However, I have to disagree with the casting of Jonathan Rhys-Myers as Henry VIII. Yes, he's sexy as hell, but the official portraits show us that Henry VIII was obese and not very attractive. Not only that, but the show's cast is nothing but a bunch of extremely sexy men and insanely gorgeous women. I feel that is unrealistic. I sincerely doubt that
anybody in 16th-century England was even remotely attractive.
