It is overused, i completely agree. But...i'll take what i can get. And the trailer showed actual women on stage; looks like everyone is 'depraved' in that universe!

(It actually looks very pretty. Hope it's as fun and weird as the trailer makes it seem.)

[fishnchips]

Yeah, same really. And his role is otherwise one of the most interesting ones on the show otherwise, so I can't be too annoyed about it.
It's generally pretty anachronistic and takes huge liberties with history, but honestly, historical accounts from that time/when it comes to Shakespeare and his contemporaries tend to be vague at best so I don't really mind.

It's fun, but also kind of grim in parts. It has some pretty explicit torture and general violence, so that's... unpleasant, if realistic. I'd say it's a bit of "Shakespeare in Love" meets "The Tudors".

I saw someone describe Will as Shakespeare meets Velvet Goldmine. Add in some late '70s/early '80s British punk rock, and that's about it.

I could do without the explicit torture and tedious love triangle, but JCB is amazing. I kind of agree about the depraved homosexual trope, but I love watching him play it.

[fishnchips]

Yeah, that's a pretty great comparison, actually!

And yes, agreed. He does the role so well I can ignore my dislike for the trope pretty well.

[tabaqui]

Well, I'm going to have to give it a look-see. I'm not happy with torture, i'll probably ff, but ...it just looks interesting as hell.

Thanks for all the info!
