The Regime series has been billed as a six-episode limited series, but that doesn't necessarily mean the story is over. As in the case of HBO's Big Little Lies and The White Lotus, if a limited series is successful enough, producers and networks will bend over backward to find a way to make a second season. Will The Regime be renewed for season two? Stay tuned.

A political satire series, The Regime TV show stars Kate Winslet, Matthias Schoenaerts, Guillaume Gallienne, Andrea Riseborough, Martha Plimpton, and Hugh Grant. The story takes place over a year in a crumbling regime's palace in a fictional Central Europe autocracy. Elena Vernham (Winslet) is a former physician and the country’s current chancellor. She hasn’t been outside the palace for some time, has become increasingly paranoid, and finds her position threatened by domestic turmoil.
