The lavish BBC period drama 'Versailles', which originally premiered in 2015, is now available to stream on Amazon Prime. The series, starring George Blagden as King Louis XIV, chronicles the monarch's rule during the construction of the Palace of Versailles.
The show ran for three seasons and has previously been available on Netflix. It has garnered a 60% score on Rotten Tomatoes, dividing critical opinion but maintaining a devoted fan base nearly a decade after its debut.
Viewers on IMDb have praised the series as a "feast for the eyes," highlighting its stunning settings, costumes, and sets. One fan described it as "visually rich" with "very nice attention to detail and character development," while another called it "addictive" and admitted to binge-watching the first series twice in three days.
However, not all reviews have been positive. One critic described the show as "a soap opera wrapped in royal regalia," noting that despite incredible sets and costumes, they struggled to connect with the actors and found the plots underwhelming.
'Versailles' is currently available to stream on Amazon Prime.
