What this show does goes beyond George R.R. Martin’s brand of expert extrapolation and into loving parody. It’s a show that holds history away from itself and giggles.
In the same vein as Hulu’s “The Great,” the series is a rip-roaring and hilarious adventure full of magic, romance and bold female characters who take control of their legacies.
It’s fun for the sort of viewer who likes their historical fiction gilded with a bit of magic, and the instant chemistry between its two leads is enough to keep the attention of even those who might be skeptical of its fantastical parts. For those weary of 1:1 history shows, My Lady Jane invites you to expect the unexpected.

FULL REVIEW
My Lady Jane fully embraces the heart and the message of the story it is trying to tell, with comedy and romance woven in masterfully.
Is it better than “Bridgerton”? Oh no, dearest readers. But it’s still a lot of kooky fun.
Sexy, sweary and infantile, this is one for your (inner) teen.
From those swear-filled opening moments onward, My Lady Jane wants you to know how hip and different it is. It’s just a shame that, in a crowded market of dramas like these, this desperate proclamation of individuality makes it more of the same.
