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.

Such a fun, fresh, and entertaining show. I grinned the whole way through. The characters are all unique and extremely entertaining, from the mcs to the side characters to the villains (honestly the villains might be the most entertaining of all). Jane and Guilford have great chemistry. The costumes are a feast for the eyes. Just all around a really enjoyable watch that felt like a breath of fresh air compared to the many stale offerings on air at the moment...why the powers that be refused to bless it with another season I will never understand (still hoping someone might swoop in to save it at the last minute...any takers??). Still, the season tells a satisfying story on its own and I'll be going back to rewatch it and telling others to do so as well.
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)

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.

Prime video - bring it back for season 2. This is the best content you've put out in years. It's absolutely insane that you would cancel this show after one season. There is a huge following for this show after such a short time. This show brought even more viewers than Bridgerton! Look at the numbers! There's still time to bring it back!!!!!!!! I will literally review on every site possible to get this show back we need to fix this wrong prime video! Stat!!!!!! If I don't get a second season I will discontinue my membership with prime video, no questions asked. Here for great vibes and great sound tracks to come!
