Guests got the royal treatment at the premiere for Showtime's series The Tudors at the W Hotel in Union Square and also at Hearst Tower. The hot drama (which debuted April 1, with a ten-week run) depicts the reign and romantic dalliances of King Henry VIII, played by the smolderingly sexy Jonathan Rhys Meyers.

Holding court: Showtime's Matt Blank and George DeBolt, Gabrielle Anwar (who portrays Princess Margaret Tudor), Bob Greenblatt, Morgan O'Sullivan, Les Moonves, Christine Baranski, Barry Diller, Ben Silverman, Caroline Hirsch, Veronica Webb, Bobby Zarem, Katherine Kovarik, Maria Doyle Kennedy (who portrays Queen Katharine of Aragon), Pam Grier, and Judy Licht.

It was a night fit for a king!
