Hello Guys,

i started watching The Musketeers when the first broadcast on TV. But i had problems at that time with watching without interruptions – of loading. So i stopped watching and waited for the DVD and here we are.

Reason to watch

First of all the first episode was just what we thought it will be. It was nothing special, nothing different from what we know. The problem is everyone knows one version of the Musketeers. So there is not much what you can do to surprise. So why watch this?
For me it where three things. One of them is Peter Capaldi as the Cardinal – the big bad. The sad thing is that Peter is playing know the Doctor (Doctor Who Season 8). He is gourgous.
The second thing is Santiago Cabrera. I know him from the serie Merlin and i wanted to see him again. Also they told me that it should be like Merlin. An old story really different to tell. So maybe it will be after the first episodes.
The third things is the realtionship between Aramis and one of the girls from the Cardinal. Yeah i know she is not long a part in it, but i loved to see this relationship.

Every man for himself

The Story is about the team. But i think that the relationships between them came a little short in the first two episodes. We all know the Musketeers never let some them down. So they can’t play really with that. We know that but we don’t see the bond between. But we see an amazing character with Constanze. She is a strong woman, which not afraid of stand her man. She is to strong to be with such a lame husband without a real own opinion.
It seems like they want to play with that motto ‘Every man for himself’. But they also show that the trust each other and it is lovely to see. I just want to know how the met, how they became so close.

Milady de Winter

So we get to know the past of Athos. Of course it is not new to us that Athos big love was Milady de Winter. But it is a good and tragic story. We have a big inside in Athos and Milady de Winter. So i am not sure what she is upto now. But it seems like she wants to play Athos and D’Artagnan against each other. They relate the story with many feelings and love for details. I don’t know very much about the Musketeers – just the big things everyone knows. So i can’t tell you if the changed something and what they changed.

Behind the mask

Everyone have there past. It is not to dark, not to tragic but not an easy past. They have all there ghost with them. The most i love Aramis and Constance. Aramis is the one that loves easy and is a romantic at heart, but also a player with woman. Constance is a strong woman, she learns to fight with the sword and don’t let her mouth be shut. These characters are loveable and that is what makes us the a serie about the musketeers.
This sweet lovestory between Constance and D’Artagnan is really good. She would do anything for him and i like that D’Artagnan after that break up, don’t go for the Milady. He is young but he has a strong character. He can fast lose is temper but that makes him so sympatic. Athos is the most sealed character of them. With his background of the Milady, you got the best inside of him. But he is a good teacher for D’Artagnan. Phortos is the strong guy with the soft soul. I somehow thinks that he is the most moral of them all. Also the Cardinal has many side and i love to dislike him.
The Queen is also a really sweet. She wants do be usefull, but he just have nothing to say. Her husband wants her dead and she falls for Aramis – but maybe I am wrong about her. Maybe she knows totally what she does and how she gets what she wants. So I am excited what of the sides of her are the real ones.
