New York PostLinda Stasi
The Tudors, Showtime's all-of-the-above series, comes roaring back Sunday night as fresh as its first season.
Read Full Review >Entertainment WeeklyAubry D'Arminio
Despite taking place during the king's historically yucky later life (sexing up an ulcerated leg is hard), season 3 stays hot.
Read Full Review >VarietyBrian Lowry
Even those whose historical knowledge goes no further than the whole "six wives" thing can ascertain that the future doesn't bode well for poor Jane, but the particulars remain fascinating amid all the bodice ripping, torture and jockeying for the king's favor.
Read Full Review >PopMattersTodd R. Ramlow
This relationship between king and subjects is the driving concern of Season Three, and marks a welcome departure from the show’s previous focus on the personal drives and desires of Henry VIII.
Read Full Review >Los Angeles TimesMary McNamara
The Tudors remains lush and bejeweled, so much so that at times one fears it will simply collapse under its own weight, and, you know, we still have a few wives to go.
Read Full Review >New York Daily NewsDavid Hinckley
It makes for lively drama, and, given what was at stake for religion and royalty, its historical significance remains legitimate. It just gets hard to watch sometimes, because even though most drama is fueled by its villains, The Tudors needs a few more characters we could actually like.
