Well, a decent ending to the series.
And the scenes where Henry's first three wives appear are magnificent.
And in the last episodes it is clear that he has aged a lot.

One of the best historical costume series. Scenery, costumes, characters… By the gods, Jonathan Reese Meyers alone is raising the temperature there! It was shot insanely beautifully, with a share of frankness and sensuality.
Who has not watched, I advise, aesthetic pleasure is provided.

One of the few episodes that penetrated to the depths of the soul. Well shot. For her alone, I want to increase the overall rating of the series, although in general it seemed average to me. Separately, I would like to mention Reese Myers. Stunningly handsome and talented.

Even though I didn't like the king all the way, I still burst into tears. The last episodes of emotional intensity were right at the level of season 2, which is the most depressing for me. Someone mb and will not pass. I didn't even hope to see Charles's wife anymore, it's such a pity that their life turned out this way in the end.
In general, this withering of life is so well shown, you can feel it leaving right through the screen. And those poor wives...you feel the regret and pain of the king, an ordinary man, for all your sins and mistakes. Stunningly.
I am very glad that I did not stop watching after the first episode of the first season, which I did not like at all. Boleyn detained me)

Great show! The only thing is, after watching season 3, I learned that Henry VIII suffered from fullness, but DRM refused to get fat for the full embodiment of the image. And it would be more impressive) But the minus is not particularly significant!

Yeah) the portrait at the end is already very modified for an actor 😂 the real Henry was red-haired and very fat in old age🙈

That's great! I didn't expect such an ending. the first season was not particularly impressive, but the further it goes, the more interesting it is, which is atypical) there are many differences with the story, especially the type of the king, but overall not bad... Hearst fumbles the topic))

In the first season, Henry is capricious, young and unpredictable. In the latter, he is already a wise king, not without a share of youthful ardor. He is different with each wife and each of his wives has its own twist. I liked all his wives, without exception. And it was a pity for everyone.

At that time, if you somehow bored the king or he doubted you - run, run without looking back otherwise "Head off your shoulders!". I read books about each of them, and then decided to watch the series as well. The scenery, outfits, and fight scenes are all at a high level. Although according to the books the king was obese and not all his meetings with his lovers were beautiful (in the book he somehow sat on a pot behind a screen, and his lady talked to him, almost sticking smelling salts in her nose) I am very glad that everything was different in the series. One of the best series for me.

It is very likely that they will throw slippers at me, but I will speak out))
The series is weak.
Yes, the actors for the most part play well, the costumes and decorations are beautiful, but they are not very well shot for the level claimed by the series, panoramic and landscape scenes generally suffer a lot.
And in general, the series did not catch on, usually the viewing captures completely, but here it was interesting in places, by the third season I watched through the force, and I wanted to leave it on the background and do other things, the fourth season was more lively, noticeably stronger than the second and third.
The viewing was brightened up by two characters: Wolsey in the first season and Lady Mary in the subsequent ones, Charles Suffolk, Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn at times, the rest of the characters, including the beloved King Henry, were very boring, predictable and mediocre.
+ there were rather gross historical mistakes, striking even to a history connoisseur.
This is solely my subjective opinion, which I am not trying to impose on anyone or offend, but the series disappointed me, I expected much more.

I've never had much love for this series.. I started watching after the Kingdom.. Yes, the chronology, but not the essence
It was interesting and addictive to watch, despite the whole number of historical blemishes that everyone can see. The series is amazing, but it still didn't sink into my soul. Alas
But even I cried on this episode... The Duke of Suffolk is one of the favorite characters from the very beginning) Lady Mary and Elizabeth just have nothing. I really like that their characters become visible. Henry himself, though a peculiar man, is still a GREAT king. The youthful fuse at the beginning, and this end and his * I'm too old for all this*... In short, it's awesome. The actor played great, despite the differences in appearance with the original Henry
And meetings with wives just killed.. She was crying like I don't know who..I am very sorry for them
In general, the series is amazing, the end is worthy💕

The last episode is worth all the previous seasons. In general, season 4 is extremely good compared to the rest. I just restrained myself from crying, especially when (!!!!SPOILER ALERT!!!!) Henry took one last look at his portrait and the key moments of his life flashed by, good and not so good, kosyachnye and victorious. Life as it is. 😌

P.S. it's a pity that he never saw how his little Elizabeth, on whom he had less hopes, ascended the throne and did so much for their country. He would be proud, I'm sure)

The screenwriters started it, Charles Brandon died about a year and a half before Henry's death!

But despite this and other blunders, I consider "Tudors" one of the best costume series. The male actors are generally great, they fit perfectly into the characteristic roles of Henry, Suffolk, Thomas More (here is just a perfect hit), Wolsey, Cromwell, Norfolk and even Francis Valois, who occasionally appears.
I was less attracted to women. I don't know why. Of course, Anne Boleyn was the brightest star among them.
A decent ending to a decent series. And an entire era of English history.

The amazing performance of Reese Myers penetrated to the very depths. From youth to aging, he was just beautiful. It's like I've lived this life with him. I cried in this episode, goodbyes and ghosts of the past were very touching... Bravo!

The series is certainly good with colorful costumes and scenery, bright actors, such deliberate pathos and drama, but it is very far from historical reality. Yes, of course, we don't know much about it, but even at the level of matching the interior to the realities of the 16th century, there are a lot of joints in the series. And the interpretation of the logic of certain events turned out to be very free. In general, it's not a pity for the time spent, but still...These are not the real Tudors)

A series that fully reveals such a multifaceted and interesting period in the history of England as the War of the Roses and the dynastic crisis. The costumes, the work of the film crew and the acting are especially good - Sam Neill, Reese Myers, James Frain, Natalie Dormer are just the tip of this sweet iceberg for perception. In general, it is an excellent series that can make you immerse yourself in this story for a long time.

Well, Henry does not change, of course, as he was prone to escapades, he remained so. All men are like children.
But I agree with the comments above, the wives who came to him were worth the whole series.

It is a pity that they decided not to shoot further, but it would be interesting to look at the reign of Mary and even more so at the 44 "golden years" of Elizabeth's reign. I liked the series! I'm not a fan of history and didn't know about the Tudors at all before the series, but now I've searched the entire Internet and I'm already in their tree! So the series fulfilled its function - it inspired me to learn something new, from the overflow of emotions!

Of course, the last episode, namely the scene of memories in front of the portrait, is just five, no ten, no all one hundred points!!! It's amazing! She decides, of course. A very emotional episode. All the feelings of watching in one minute. I'm thrilled.
Although the actor who played the main role is not my favorite, although there are many discrepancies with the real story (but it doesn't matter to me), although some episodes are really boring (but this is in any series). Still, I never regret watching it. It was worth it to see the final scene. Thank you for the series and four seasons of beauty, amazing acting, a little longing for the departed characters, tears, and final delight.

I watched this series a long time ago, but for some reason I decided to leave a review only today.
It is a pity that only one Henry 8 was shown. I would like to watch a series about the entire Tudor dynasty, starting with Henry 7 and ending with Elizabeth, and not individually. Another thing I missed was the young Catherine of Aragon. In all films and TV series, she is always shown as old. This is probably done to make Anna look more interesting against her background. Although the story of Catherine is no less interesting.
Well, I liked the series and I don't regret the time spent.

What a great screensaver! The idea of showing acting actors was originally great. And Henry's wives in the final screensaver caused pleasant goosebumps from the memories of all seasons. It's a pity they didn't show all the characters, it would have been a masterpiece!

How annoying is the actress who plays Elizabeth. Maybe as a queen, she will not be the sweetest and nicest, but so far this is a child, and not a soulless and tired person played by her

A decent ending to the series, with strong goosebumps starting from the last scene and almost crying. According to Heinrich's memoirs, he thought to himself that it was necessary to live life in such a way that there would be something to remember in old age, namely moments of joy, it was necessary to do such things in life so that later everything would be remembered mentally. The series is good, the moments were not interesting episodes, the moments were interesting, the ending went 100%. He finished the series line-up: "The White Queen", "The White Princess", "The Spanish Princess" and "The Tudors". It is advisable to look exactly in this order they go chronologically.
Thanks to everyone who watched this series with me.
See you in other TV series and movies!
