Summary:

"Tut" reveals, for the first time on television, the story of the Egyptian Pharaoh, one of the most renowned leaders in human history. This ambitious special-event series tells the story of Tut's rise to power and his struggle to lead Egypt to glory, while his closest advisors, friends and lovers scheme for their own nefarious interests. "Tut" opens up a fascinating window into a world filled with heart-breaking romance, epic battles, political backstabbing, conspiracy, jealousy, and even murder - proving his world was not far removed from our own - and that his reign as the youngest Egyptian king played out as a real-life drama for the ages.

I would give this 20 stars if it were possible. I felt this was the best drama, with great acting, plot and action I have ever seen.

I totally loved this mini-series. All the actors did good jobs, but I was especially taken by Avan Jogik, who played King Tut. Not only is he a thrilling actor to watch, he is also one of the handsomest men ever on a screen. I think this actor will go far. I had not seen him before, but will certainly be watching for him in the future.

The series was riveting. It kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. The writing was excellent with the many twists and turns and great character development.
