Why We Love The Tudors In The United States |
Because we're the first ones in the world to watch the new seasons of the show. (I'm not gloating, I swear!) - Boudica | Because it is one of the best ways to secretly indulge in our fancy for British and Irish accents. ;-) - SemperEadem |
Because it's a fanscinating show taking place in a foreign time and place! - LNor19 | Because the Tudors are awesome and you don't have to live in England to think so! - queen_elizabeth_1533 |
Because some of us are still secretly in love with Historic Royalty -GoldenAged.ER | Hmm why do I watch...you all know why~JRM!! Seriously I love the show for broadening my horizons on history, the beautiful clothes, jewelry,accents,acting and oh... Brandon too! FMFJRMGRL |
Because I love the history and loved to watch the story unfold in a most realistic and beautifully dramatic way and I love JRM & Henry Cavill and their fellow castmates, the list goes on as to my reasons! In short the show was wonderful and we did get to see it before anyone else did. - Jrmslady09 | |

Constructed in 1926, the home has had only three owners. Though strongly influenced by English Tudor style, this home's whimsical elements place it firmly in storybook territory. |
