I was reading a review in USA Today recently and even one of the Producers (director?) said blatantly that it was all about getting people to watch and "not about period costumes"
Arrogant Jerk.
if he'd realize in his infinite wisdom, if he'd done 5 minutes of research and spent a little of the Big Budget on better costuming, he'd get the respect and the RATINGS of those of us who are just too picky about the period costumes, of lack therof. Why would you turn your back on even more people to tune in and watch. Don't those sacred ratings numbers translate into more money in thier inflated pockets? Or at least more [directing] opportunities to further your reputation?
I mean really, they worked so hard on making the sets look authenic and all, it could have taken an ounce more effort to work on the costuming.
But I suppose in the end, it looks like it's still a vast improvement over "Empire" or "King Authur"...The untold true story of peeing on your leg and telling you it's raining. Gag me with a spoon.
I'm eagerly awaiting to give it a shot....er...stab?
