iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

This is the season where Louis keeps Important Information from Antoinette while she gets blamed for the Affair of the Necklace, isn't it. #MarieAntoinettePBS

Finances are a mess and his kid is going to die? It's not good to be the king, actually. #MarieAntoinettePBS #HistoryOfTheWorldPart1

Just two con artists exposing each other's secrets over a glass of wine #MarieAntoinettePBS

"I want to be certain." "Of the pregnancy or the father?" Yes I think all ladies-in-waiting (of sorts) are trained in the art of snark. #MarieAntoinettePBS #WolfHallPBS

Laughing at Cardinal de Rohan thinking his donation wasn't large enough #doubleentendre #MarieAntoinettePBS

"You have no assets: everything including your jewelry belongs to France." This episode opens up with the most devastating news for Antoinette (barring, y'know, death or something) #MarieAntoinettePBS

And it's #MarieAntoinettePBS time! I wish this had an earlier time slot honestly: I know it's available to stream on Passport but I think it's really good and more people might tune in live if it aired earlier.

Okay, that was a rude cliffhanger #masterpiecepbs. At least all of #WolfHallPBS is available to stream on Passport now! Yes this is my weekly plug to support your local public broadcasting station today and stream all the British dramas and comedies PBS has to offer-

Ooh, now it's Thomas Cromwell with the illegitimate child! #WolfHallPBS #ThePlotThickens

"It's always you with the bad news." Me giving my boss updates at work most of the time. I feel you on this one, Cromwell. #WolfHallPBS

Oh, Bess has her eye on a Cromwell all right. Just not the one Thomas intended... #WolfHallPBS

On a new MASTERPIECE Studio, I'm joined by #WolfHallPBS star Lilit Lesser, who delves into Mary Tudor's internality on the @pbs.org drama, how the character balances faith with fortitude, THAT scene with Mark Rylance's Thomas Cromwell, and much more. LISTEN: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/l...

Even with The White Lotus season finale tonight, #WolfHallPBS is still trending! I'm still watching it after I finish #MarieAntoinettePBS tonight, though.

This scene between Cromwell and Mary just feels a little too intimate to me. Gives me the ick. #WolfHallPBS

Interesting fact, Claire van Kampen spent years at the Globe developing expertise in period music, she is the one who chose all the live music in this series. #MasterpiecePBS #WolfHallPBS #WolfHallPBS

"Let her be. She must be instructed." My skin crawls and yet again, Damian Lewis is just so good. Still, Jane tries to negotiate with her husband on the best course of action. #WolfHallPBS

041

Jane wanting to spend time with Mary and not just shun her at court? The rare women supporting women on #WolfHallPBS!

031

Damian Lewis has this incredible talent of encouraging me to care about characters I find loathsome: King Henry VIII and Soames Forsyte. #WolfHallPBS

We open this week with Cromwell sobbing over failing to help Wolsey's illegitimate daughter. Unfortunately, I don't think things are going to get better for him. #WolfHallPBS

021

From the 1970s to the 1530s (I think?)! It's #WolfHallPBS time.

Oh I am ready for Trixie to take on a group of people who presumably want to shut down Nonnatus House next week! I have faith she'll prevail. #MidwifePBS

Cyril has a suitcase? Oof, Rosalind... #MidwifePBS

Fred supporting Violet through this speech is also so relatable. My husband is just like this, helping me see the bigger picture of what I do at my job. #MidwifePBS

One of my favorite aspects of #MidwifePBS: Women supporting women. They wouldn't be able to get the gonorrhea outbreak under control without Miss Higgins' help!

Heartbroken and having to give birth? I feel even worse for this woman. I think she'll be strong, though. #MidwifePBS

Fred's disappointment of Violet needing to serve another term as Mayor is so relatable. Just when you think you'll have more time at home, there's more work to be done. #MidwifePBS

I love Shelagh in charge! Giving that foreman a dressing down. #MidwifePBS

040

Okay, I'm thinking dumping the lithium was a very bad idea. #MidwifePBS

This woman is just trying to make ends meet to support her daughter. If there's one thing about #MidwifePBS, it's that life in Poplar is rough but there is always joy and hope to be found in it. Eventually!

Things I did not expect on #MidwifePBS: Miss Higgins visiting a brothel.

I want to know more about the mathematics of flower arranging. Also: the science. #MidwifePBS

The hesitancy of letting the homeless shelter having a flower arrangement 🙄Will it be the easiest to put together? Probably not, but it's good to show all of Poplar. Even the parts people would prefer were kept hidden. #MidwifePBS

"The nurse knows nothing!" He's got something to hide, for sure! #MidwifePBS #dontdoubtthenurses

And now it looks like an STD is making its way through Poplar. Sigh. I feel bad for this poor expectant mother: she didn't ask for this. #MidwifePBS

Ah, a former patient of the neighborhood mental hospital. I have a feeling this won't be an easy birth for the #MidwifePBS cast to handle.

The age old problem of acting in a play with your lover while your husband will be watching #MarieAntoinettePBS #SheShouldNotLetHerselfGo

"It will be a frivolous entertainment with no consequences!" Famous last words, sir. #MarieAntoinettePBS

I wonder if the women of #WolfHallPBS would be happier if they spent their time drinking like the Countess of Provence on #MarieAntoinettePBS

070

#MarieAntoinettePBS should be called Marie Antoinette and the women who vie for her attention tbh

And to open #MarieAntoinettePBS this week, Mini McGuinness from Skins! As a millennial who grew up with Skins as the "scandalous teen show," I can't see Freya Mavor without thinking of her role on the show.

I will say out of the three Sunday dramas on PBS right now, #MarieAntoinettePBS has my favorite costumes. But I'm also biased because I'm in the process of getting together a Marie Antoinette costume. But from #RoseOfVersailles!

And that's all for The King's Whims And Those Who Make Them Happen for this week on #WolfHallPBS. Up next: The King Who Is Doing A Poor Job And The Queen Who Takes The Blame For Everything on #MarieAntoinettePBS

Is #WolfHallPBS just the show of cringe men and the women who tolerate them for as long as they're allowed to live

This is not one of Cromwell's better ideas, trying to marry Wolsey's illegitimate daughter. But it's not his worst idea: that's Anne of Cleves. #WolfHallPBS
