VICTORIA looks interesting. I don't like her uncle already.
ReplyDeletethey really did give Jenna blue contacts :)
DeleteI need to get The Young Pope written into my calendar to record on Tivo this fall!
ReplyDeletesounds like a plan the pope wouldn't approve :)
DeleteI've always liked Rufus Sewell and I'm glad to see him in "Victoria."
ReplyDeletewe do like RufRuf, he is largely underrated
DeleteThe Young Pope looks hip and ready for reruns on E! channel after HBO is done with it circa 2018. Victoria looks really nice. Might give that a try.
ReplyDeleteyes, a pope bum naked, totally E!
DeleteShenanigans in the Vatican should be interesting!
ReplyDeletethey're ever so scandalous
DeleteSo many period pieces lately but I do like the costumes.
ReplyDelete'tis because the spy is the main web place for all things period set and historical :)
DeleteIf I didn't know about Jude Laws real person life filled with scandal and infidelity...I would think he does LOOK like he could be a pope. Lol
ReplyDeleteI'd think that is exactly what qualifies him perfectly to play the pontiff :) Especially an American one!
DeleteMan, I need to watch The Young Pope!
