Anyone else watching this show?

I'm a huge fan of history, but I have no idea if this is a historically accurate show or not, but I'm loving Mary Queen of Scotland and Sebastian (Torrance Coombs)

Last night's episode was great, I had a feeling a love triangle was going to be forming!

ME!!! I haven't watched last night show yet...I usually catch it later in the week on the CW app I have through our xBox, but I love it so much!! I don't know if it's historically accurate either (and I don't really care) I just love anything that seems "historical"!!!!

I think it's ok! Not one of the first things I watch in my queue but good background stuff.

I think there is lots of room for improvements for sure, but I think it's the only thing I really look forward to watching lately, that and I just started watch Nashville.

The King is pretty hot too. I don't like Francis though.

I have it all DVR'd but I've only watchted the first episode so far. I do like it so far, just don't have enough time to watch tv!!

I'm enjoying it! My masters is in Tudor era history so I can say it's 'loosely based on history'. There was no Sebastian historically, or that made it into the records anyway.

I've always thought the later years of her life, when she is in Scotland to be much more dramatic, what with trying to find a new husband, dealing with Elizabeth I, the coup attempt by her husband, having him murdered, being kidnapped by the murderer & forced to marry him & then being thrown off her throne, and fleeing into English capitivity. There is a lot a show could do with that.

But I suppose there is much more opportunity to play with the facts while she is in France & not much is known apart from how she dealt with her French husband & his family.

Still, it's a good show.
