Season 1 Review:
Queen delivers the basic goods (intrigue, sex) , but the only vivid character is Margaret Beaufort, mom of the future Henry VII. She's played by Amanda Hale with startling neuritic fervor. [12 Aug 2013]

Season 1 Review:
Absurd but engrossing War of the Roses-era drama. [9 Aug 2013, p.73]
