Further Retroactive Thoughts on Kings
Edit: I have a subTumblr for Kings screencaps that I'm pairing with goofy quotes from other shows.

Kings: Jonathan versus Jack
So...Kings. Been rewatching it because I need inspiration for a project.
Man...one of the best shows to get cancelled in its first season *ever*. I wish I'd tried harder to convince people to watch it but I don't think, at the time, I appreciated how important of a show it actually was.
It's a *better* show if you appreciate it for what it is, not whether or not it adheres to the original story enough. But also, it actually *does*, more than you'd think at first. The writers and show runners were *fans* and *scholars* and it's loaded with Fridge Brilliance and callbacks to the original. I'll tackle that in my third post.
