"They knew we were in desperate need for an iconic love story with unspeakable chemistry and they said: don't worry we are on our way," added someone else.

A tweet reads, "I cannot recommend My Lady Jane on Amazon enough! It is so fun, so quirky, so funny, so romantic, very A Knights Tale vibes but better! I'm having the best time watching!"

Another fan said, "Really enjoying My Lady Jane. So deadpan and funny."

A fan who's obsessing over 'My Lady Jane', wrote, "When I die, make sure that My Lady Jane is inscribed on my mf tomb stone. God this show is so good (I’ve only watched the first episode but the hyper fixation immediately kicked in)"

Impressed by the steamy chemistry between the lead characters, someone mentioned, "Jane Grey and Guildford Dudley came to serve, they brought us an 8 course meal and I shall honor them with rewatching the show again and again until the whole script is tattooed in my brain! If you all are not watching My Lady Jane what the hell are you even doing?"

Fans prefer 'My Lady Jane' over 'Bridgerton' Season 3
