Period Drama

Does anyone else think more men might like period drama if we didn't call it period drama?

Honey, would you like to watch some period drama sounds about as appealing as - honey, would you enjoy sitting and watching something associated with menstrual cycles and bloody cunts?! Come on.

Tips for suggesting period drama to your man:

1. While fans of the genre know that miniseries (especially BBC miniseries) is its best format - try suggesting something with a run time of less than three hours.

2. Swords and horses are a good thing. Lots of dudes like fantasy and battles; and may, therefore, enjoy a good horse laden period romp.

3. Stick to traditional themes - e.g Arthurian Legend.

My current favorites are BBC Robin Hood and BBC North & South. Swoon and double swoon.

    Forget the horses and swords draw attention to the corsets and wenches!
