The Great

The way how they play and remastering the history is genius! As being Russian, I find this show absurdly brilliant and funny. That's interesting to follow how the show is portraying current narratives with well known facts from 18 century, as it all together creates absolutely masterpiece satire Universe!

Quirky humour, great acting, certainly not trying to be historically accurate! Possibly the humour isn't slapstick enough for the initial reviewers. It's definitely worth the watch.

This has been one of the best shows of the year. I binged watched it over the weekend and it was great. It is loosely based on history but has an entertaining twist and the ending cries for a second season. Elle Fanning does a great job as well as the other characters. Some you immediately like, some you hate but all of them grow on you as the season progresses.

Who the hell cares if this show is not historically correct? This isn't the History Channel, this is a comedy. I've seen far too many period pieces take themselves far too seriously. It's a genre well-trodden, but hardly ever done with wit like this.

If you can't see that this is the funniest show on television, your sense of humor must be broken.

The Great was so much better than I expected it to be. I went into it not expecting much but after a few episodes I couldn't stop watching it. I binged all three seasons as fast as I could. I promise you that you'll laugh out loud at least a few times every episode. While the entire cast is good in this is, Nicholas Hoult is the best part of this show. Every time he talks he made made me laugh. He also has the best character arc on the show. You go from not liking his character to rooting for him. Hoult is already a star from other stuff he's done but this takes him to another level. If you're looking for a new show to just have good time then this is it.
