BLACK historical dramas

"Black" historical dramas refer to the most tragic dramas, ones that have an overall grim tone and sense of doom. This does not include very light and fun dramas overall that have an unexpectedly sad ending. This is for dramas that are depressing and heavy throughout. "Grey" and "white" dramas are more mixed and lighter dramas, respectively.
