"Perfect"

By TrueTvWatcher, Feb 27, 2011 Report Abuse

Matters of State was a perfect episode of The Tudors. I enjoyed watching this episode because The Reformation continues to change England, Anne has nightmares about Lady Mary, and poor Queen Katherine of Aragon had some really emotional scenes. I was touched by her courage, strength and honor. Anne celebrates some good news and is definitely riding the quiet before the storm. It is interesting to see the continued liasons and apparent relationship between George Boleyn and Marc the musician and dance master. I really enjoy seeing the life style of these times, and their celebrations. I look forward to watching the next episode of The Tudors!!!!!!!moreless
