My Lady Jane

This show is a fun ride. If you don't take it too seriously, you'll love this show. I binged it all in one day, and can't wait for season 2.

The show seems to be Amazon's version of Bridgerton and I'm here for it. Unlike Bridgerton, I took this show to be somewhat of a satire.

The main characters are enticing and charismatic. The casting is well done, and you'll find yourself wanting the villain to be desperately killed by the end of it. And I think that always make a great villain.

Give the show a chance, and I think you'll enjoy it as well (that is if you are into romantic period pieces meets unrealistic fantasy). Just remember it's ridiculous and that's okay.

Not sure why people are giving it bad reviews due to lack of historical accuracy. Not only the trailers, but the first five minutes tell you this isn't one of those shows.

It's a lot of fun. I finished it in two nights, and I love the main couple together. The fantasy aspect is random, but the writing manages to make it work.

I knocked off two stars because the cinematography could've been better, and they could've forked out the money to use the original songs as opposed to the terrible cover songs they chose to use instead, (a cover of Kashmir. Really?) or songs that haven't already been used in so many other movies and/or shows. (The Donna's/Goldfrapp)

It is quite a rare thing to find a show that is able to capture your attention right off the bat, without stumbling or falling short of living up to its premise. This show has so much going for it, starting with the lovable characters, who you can't help but find entertaining despite their appalling actions. The writing is very funny without sacrificing the seriousness of the situations the characters are thrown in. And the cast is all so incredibly talented, everything about this show works perfectly together.

This show doesn't need to find its footing, it's already an incredibly well made television show. What this show needs is support and time to make people aware of this show, so that they may fall in love with its witty writing, riveting plot and beating heart.

This is a hate letter to prime video, please do not give up on this rare gem of a show.

I gave My Lady Jane a 7, and my biggest heartbreak is that it was wasted-canceled after just two seasons when it had so much more to offer. This series had all the makings of a cult classic: sharp storytelling, a unique and playful twist on history, and absolutely electric chemistry between the leads.

One of the show's strongest aspects was its portrayal of powerful, independent female characters. My Lady Jane didn't just give us passive historical figures; it reimagined them as bold, witty, and fearless women who refused to be defined by the limitations of their time. The female leads weren't just love interests or damsels in distress-they were the heart of the story, making their own choices, fighting their own battles, and driving the narrative forward with intelligence and charisma.

The show's lighthearted yet clever approach to historical fiction made it stand out. It didn't take itself too seriously, yet it managed to weave a compelling and engaging tale filled with humor, adventure, and undeniable charm. The chemistry between the main characters was pure magic-natural, dynamic, and full of the kind of energy that makes you instantly invested in their journey.

It's frustrating to see a series with such potential get cut short, especially when it had just begun to hit its stride. My Lady Jane may not have had the chance to fully develop its story, but what it did deliver was undeniably entertaining. If you love period dramas that celebrate strong women, clever storytelling, and witty romance, this one is definitely worth watching-just be prepared to be left wanting more.

There is substance to the silly fantasy, well written, well acted, well designed. With strong female characters at every turn. Adventure, fantasy, romance, logic.

Modern music, modern slang, edgy storytelling, and enjoyable narration.

And while they change history, they remain true to many details about the time period and source material.

I love all of the characters, they are all well written.

Beyond worthy of a second season.

(9/10 only because I am a costume designer and there are a couple tiny period inaccuracies, but I still LOVE the costume design. Beautiful fabrics, well made costumes, clearly drew from period portraiture)
