Just watched both seasons in 2 days, can't remember laughing this hard and enjoying every single aspect of it! Everything and Everyone was just AMAZING! Hopefully a LOT more seasons to come!
It took me a minute to recognize her, I've only ever seen her in The Crown, but if that's her real voice, she did a WONDERFUL job playing Margaret Thatcher lol
This is very very veeeeery loosely based on real history... so much so, that the show itself is no longer 'inspired & heavily-stylized avant-garde' but more surreal at this point.
...Still trying to explain to my X-Files obsessed brother and my The Crown fanatic sister that *this* is what I think about when I think about Gillan Anderson...
@@ook4698 Not everyone is as brilliant and well educated as you! Nor are they aware that the show plays loose and fast with the facts. My point (and I do have one) is that at least 13 people so far liked and appreciated my comment! Now please go troll someone else!
@@jaclynbush5778 Well, there's a debate around Paul, the firstborn. While there are speculations it's hard to deny that he bore resemblance to Peter and had similar mental health issues.
Genuine question; In the show, did Peter willingly sleep with Catherine's mother or did she coerce him into sleeping with her just to spite Catherine? Cuz the scene at 3:29 is her basically molesting and sexually harassing Peter.
Ох, это надолго запомнится, вот этот эпизод, которое я приводила внимание, даже не застрял внимание приезд, я не знаю, но это же это со 2 сезона, это вообще-то, которое я пыталась говорить об этом. Кто этот кадр не показал, но я до такой степени, что там даже преувеличила немножко, но она там такое вытворяла, что она вытворяла, на самом деле надо поговорить об этом?
все русские императоры и императрицы в основном говорили НЕ по русски. Русский считался языком простолюдинов. Аристократы говорили на французском, немецком, английском.
@@lukykfg6848 Да, они безусловно говорили на иностранных языках, но все - таки русский язык был основным. Иностранные языки, уровень их владения был, скорее, признаком утонченности и образованности. Екатерина, когда приехала в Россию, сразу же стала изучать русский, хоть и говорила с акцентом. Много читала на русском, в том числе.
Что она делает вообще, я такого не видела никогда. Откуда такое, кто это сотворяет, а люди, что вы делаете с этим фильмом, класс тех времён вообще замечательная жизнь замечательная зарывает вообще? Знала бы я ещё больше распространила это всё времени, просто не хватило бы. О Ириан Андерсен. Ох и ох, и ох, что она вытворяет, оказывается, заигрывать и может всё что угодно, там она дела Жана, джоана. Мне ещё надо побольше над этим поработать, сразу бы надо было не вот так, а? С любовью заняться с ним, и всё нет, она не решилась, а надо было бы надо было. Да даже классно такая вся мимолётная история, ох мимолётная жизнь этой джоаны. Ох и джована, ох сексуальная баба! Здесь она не март другое имя совсем, но за что она тут вытворяет, молодец, какая распространили мне кино, да я знаю о нем, не переживайте, я много знаю про это кино. Могу и подкаст сделать
Because black people actually held positions of power in great European households. Evidenced by the many portraits that have been left behind from that era, historical records too. You yourself could research to see.

Yep. Her mother was a princess by birth, but a “low ranking” one.
Fun fact, Catherine had no living sisters!
Wasn't Catherine's match her doing tho?
@@xtxpxhx not sure, most likely the dad considering the time. Either way still bitter.

What a wonderful actress Gilliana is!!!
Yes she is and funny too.
It took me a minute to recognize her, I've only ever seen her in The Crown, but if that's her real voice, she did a WONDERFUL job playing Margaret Thatcher lol
And something most people don't know, her mother would have probably called her Sophia, not Catherine.
This is very very veeeeery loosely based on real history... so much so, that the show itself is no longer 'inspired & heavily-stylized avant-garde' but more surreal at this point.
They literally say at the beginning "occasionally a true story" so this shouldn't come as a surprise. Its what they meant to do.
did you ever actually watch the show? or even JUST the intro??? they CONSTANTLY remind you that its incredibly loosely based on actual history...
@@ook4698 wow how poignant
@@alantes the tagline is quite literally "an occasionally true story"
Lol guys ^^ I don’t think they ever said otherwise they’re just commenting on the shows tone. Chill
Gillian Anderson was amazing in that season!
I can only hear Margaret Thatcher’s voice
Which did not sound like Margaret Thatcher at all ! She played her like a washed out, senile, chain smoker. What an insult!
Great scene at the end! 👏👏👏
Oh I’m first I love aunt elizabeth😂 5:06
I'm ready for the rest this felt like a half episode
It is easy to take power and sometimes i even in joy it
This looks good, I love anything Gillian Anderson is in.
Well this looks awesome. I never heard of this show before. Time for me to subscribe.
0:32 so cute

Catherine the great had no living sisters. She had one sister who died in infancy.
the show quite literally prides itself on being inaccurate. your point is?

@@notbill08 troll?? 😭 i dont think u know what trolling is... the shows tagline is literally "an occasionally true story"
@@notbill08anyone with some sense knows most of these shows ALWAYS plays with the truth loosely😒
She’s very spry for a heavily pregnant woman
Such a great actress, never met her and I don't like her 🤣she did her job well...
Isn't that Gillian Anderson from the X Files? I'd be surprised if you hadn't seen her face in memes at least!
Joanna Elisabeth of Holstein-Gottorp didn't have four daughters.
She had one daughter and she hated the girl until it was time to marry her off.
And none of Catherine's children were sired by Peter.
It's entertainment.
Wow almost like it’s a tv show

Genuine question; In the show, did Peter willingly sleep with Catherine's mother or did she coerce him into sleeping with her just to spite Catherine? Cuz the scene at 3:29 is her basically molesting and sexually harassing Peter.
She manipulates him into it, but Peter definitely sleeps with her voluntarily when the time comes

This is so far from real history, its actually fiction 😂😂😂
thats literally the point.
Yes
The slogan of the show is literally "an *occasionally* true story"
@@ATWTMVTVFTVSGAVRALPS right, just embrace it .. i love this show for that
🤩🤩🤩🤩
I thought Catherine’s sisters died in infancy and she only had two brothers?
It's only occasionally a true story.
我真的希望所罗门不要给我整这些破事…太差劲了
Да в России чернокожие 😂😂😂
If you’re going to divulge this much from the fact why not just make it a total fiction with new characters
Because it's not as funny as satire over more or less true events.
She is in heaven not the actress the woman she is acting
Why is there a black man there?
Color blind casting
Because it's meant to be fictional.
He's guarding the palace.
Because black people actually held positions of power in great European households. Evidenced by the many portraits that have been left behind from that era, historical records too. You yourself could research to see.
Because black people have existed since the dawn of humanity. Also, because black guards did exist...
