Overview: Gird your loins for the tragic tale of Lady Jane Grey, the young Tudor noblewoman who was Queen of England for nine days and then beheaded, back in good ol’ 1553. Actually... f*ck that. We’re retelling history the way it should have happened: the damsel in distress saves herself. This is an epic tale of true love and high adventure set in an alt-universe of action, history, fantasy, comedy, romance, and rompy-pompy. Buckle up.

It clearly wants to be "The Princess Bride" mixed with "Monty Python" and "His Dark Materials." But really, it is none of these.

Revisionist alt/history could be fun here. Even with the dopey (almost stereo-typically stupid) black king of England... That's not PC/SJW at all. That's racist!

It just drags on and on and on and on.

How many times can you put modern curse words and slang into the mouth of a Tudor character and still have it be funny?

I don't think I can make it through this. Stopped mid-way in episode 4..

The potential was there to go off the rails, but it doesn't. It seems like it grinds to a halt.
