i love the first season of the tudor . it be fun and scandalous and wonderful eye candy . the second season be a huge let down . while the addition of the pope and the creation of the jesuit and the take over of the english church by henry make for good intrigue and and jonathan rhys meyers continue to show his prowess a an actor and and the rest of the cast do a brilliant job support him and the character decision make by the creator be upset . the gratuitous explicit sex continue and which be no surprise and in itself fine . but the brief respect the writer give their gay or bisexual men in the first season do not carry on into this one . there be barely a touch between the male couple and boleyn and smeeton . instead of show a sex scene and or even a kiss and between these character and the creator opt to make it clear that boleyn be gay by show him anally rape his wife . i be so shocked ( and offend ) by the decision i could not bring myself to finish the series . up until that episode i have be only half a invest in the season a i have be in the first . and afterward and i decide it be just not worth my time . i be really look forward to catch up with this show . what a waste .
