The Tudors?

Could anybody classify the characters in the the Tudors, the Showtime series concerning the reign of King Henry VIII? They just finished the third season.

I can certainly say Jeremy Northam's portrayal of Sir Thomas More just screams INFJ, as can especially be seen in these scenes:

This was probably the high point to the entire series.

King Henry VIII was a notorious asshole and an ESTP.

I suppose that's a redundant statement, but in any case, the character of Henry VIII on Tudors, and the actual Henry VIII are ESTP.

Henry VIII certainly was an asshole. It's a shame the Pilgrimage of Grace failed in overthrowing his heretic ass and restoring the true faith to England. They literally had him by the balls.

Oh well it was fitting to see Ann Boelyn and later Thomas Cromwell meet their proper fates within the series.

I am not particularly fond of the series, mainly because I find that particular time period boring as shit, but in any case, the casting choice for Ann Boelyn was excellent.

The actress playing her may not strikingly hot, but she is very seductive to the point where you think, damn, that bitch is hot, I want a piece of that.

This scene, of Cardinal John Fisher's execution, is also rather moving:

It was nice to see how much English Catholics were vinidcated in this series.

Yeah I have to admit that Natalie Dormer was pretty hot as Ann Boelyn.

Then that was completely true to history for Anne Boelyn.

I'm glad someone posted this, because I was curious about what Jane Seymour's type was. I'm thinking INFJ. Thoughts?

Don't chop off my head but I got the sick ENTJ vibe from the actors/directors take/vibe on Henry VIII...although I would agree that the real Henry VIII was probably an ESTP.

Jonathan Rhys Meyers portrayal of Henry makes it appear that Henry's actions were clearly bold, logical and meticulous maneuvering in order to achieve his goals of both preserving England's unity and while maintaining his bloodline as royalty.

I have enjoyed the series. Henry is an A-hole but he is portrayed as one of those persons you love/hate and would give your right lobe to be him for a few months experiencing that kind of licentiousness and power.

I am a little bummed to hear that Hendry will not don a fat suit in order to accomodate the desire to keep him "sexy" for his female fans.

The series sucks ass. :thumbdown: Same shit every episode. Get over it, Henry. :rolli:
