She kind of had to, didn't she? It's great that Joss Stone is coming back for The Tudors' fourth season, but considering her character outlived Henry himself and remained associated with him, she kind of needed to, didn't she?
I guess they could have changed history some more and simply gotten rid of her, but I like that she's coming back. Stone has a sexy side that plays well in the world of The Tudors. And considering that she's playing the "homely" wife, that's a testament to her skills.
But then again, Jonathan Rhys Meyers has sexy-ed up Henry VIII quite a bit himself. I always pictured someone more like the late Dom DeLuise in the role. Regardless, The Tudors has been tremendously entertaining so far, if you can handle the changes. I'm glad that it'll be able to keep this important role intact through its final season.
Internal continuity is important in this kind of thing. We wouldn't want Jessica Simpson suddenly showing up next season. "Hey y'all, I'm Anne of Cleves ... or is it cleaves? Get it, 'cause my jugs are huge? ... Y'all got a car I can wash around here?"
