The Musketeers (2014-2016)

Just when you thought you were finally safe from the writings of Alexandre Dumas, the BBC is back with yet another show based off of his legendary fictional trio. Set in seventeenth century Paris, The Musketeers is a contemporary take on the classic novel, following D’Artagnan (Luke Pasqualino), Athos (Tom Burke), Aramis (Santiago Cabrera) and Porthos (Howard Charles), personal bodyguards of King Louis XIII (Ryan Gage) and passionate proponents of honor, justice, valor and love. Purists of Dumas will inherently find fault in the series, but lovers of flesh will simply indulge in the beefy and shirtless physique of Luke Pasqualino that he teases in season one, episode three. It’s one for all, and all for Luke!
