It's an English language production so everyone speaks English and since it's not in modern era, they have a British accent. Surely you're not new to this, it has been like this for ages. If you want Russian, then watch a Russian production.
Someone, please, tell me- why? WHY is this show so underrated?! The dialogue, the comedy, the timing, the character development, the plot- quite literally everything about this show was fantastic without measure. We simply need MORE of this kind of TV!
Going into this show as a historian I was prepared to be greatly let down and annoyed. In fact, it's pretty fantastic, when you regard it as separate to the real history
Russian here, indeed nothing in common. Russia portrayed as a crowd of people one weirder than another, when in fact people were shy reserved and religious
As being part Russian and closely related to that culture, I thought that it will be “another American show”, but it is in fact so sarcastic, funny and true
Not even close to truth, completely bullshit, they choose Russia , cause there is no shame to redicule it. If producers would film it about Royal family with all their sins, these producers would be ashamed heaviliy. That's "freedom" in our lovely West. This series shows actually the British behavior of CHAVS, etc on streets nowdays, it is called FUN (((
Omg I just started watching and this is absolutely BRILLIANT! From the cast to the screenplay to the sets and the music - I have no idea why people aren't making a bigger fuss about this show! ❤️
@@shannonlao1739 I believe that they both were of German descent. He at least partially, she was fully German. So they probably both spoke German, they at least had that in common. I also think that French would have been used at court.
@@gdbssa Actually, both Catherine and Peter were Prussian, so it is highly unlikely that they spoke Russian in private. Both knew Russian and German, but the most likely assumption is that they spoke French in court.
I absolutely love this show mann 😂❤ It’s so funny and serious at the same time. Absolutely love the character choices, can’t wait to get to season 2! 🥰
I m Interested to see this - Katharina the great as a historical figure is so admirable. Her vaccination campaign especially . When the pox vaccine was new she took it herself early on . She d brought the doctor in , a foreigner, and had a horse carriage wait outside so that the doctor would get away safely should something go wrong and happen to the emperess. Admirable and honorable as few of them came
This show is a big slap on the face of Russian history and on the face of the Romanov’s who are still alive I’ve watched it for 10 min and it was more than enough for me
This show is so addicting it’s not the type of show you can do other things while watching it sucks you in I’m 4 episodes in after just discovering it I DIDNOT ASK FOR THIS
i loveeeeeeeeed watching this show! nicholas and elle acted their characters fantastically!! a little late to watch but now moving on to s2!!!!! huzzah
I have a feeling this movie is a success! Our Russian history, of course, was bloodier and more terrible, but it is better to see it in this interpretation.
As a Russian who just watched Russian show about Ekaterina the Great, I found this show annoying but at the same time funny. Too bad people will only watch this crap.
This show is great, because it doesn’t pretend to be a true representation of historical events - it is clear that it is satire and it’s bloody hilarious
the real story can be much more scintillating and comical without making Cathrine (Sophie Friederike Auguste) look like a fool. but as satire, it is fun to watch...
Its hilarious how much work they put into this series yet they never learned the difference between a 'macaroon' and a 'macaron'....two totally different cookies. Only one of which is actually french and used over...and over...in this show yet never pronounced correctly once.
Yes, it was made in 2020. Also, those people of colour were astonishing travellers before the age of plains, trains, and passenger ships. I wonder where they went just before cameras became wide spread.
Maybe I could Hate Watch this for the comedy, AND Elle Fanning & Nicholas Holt? Please tell me: is it at least amusing? PLEASE!!! Because, it's certainly nothing like Ekaterina (2014).
its pretty much what you see in the trailer here plus some intrigue and general batshit moments scattered throughout it's like a Monty Python history co-written by Larry David
Nahh pass this one I can’t find anything that I like this days 😂 I just done the Ozark and I hate the end and waiting for Yellowstone! I was watching The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and for some reading the firsts 4 episode of season 4 just not like it and I stop watching!
This is a disgrace. An insult to the Orthodox faith and Russian culture and history. There is a limit between funny and offensive and they have crossed it for sure.
This TV series has all excellent elements but the script unfortunately , the script is so ridiculous and rude, it is so sad to see it becomes a very disappointing work and waste of all resources. I think Ekaterina (2014 Russian) is much better work, but l really feel the performance of Elle Fanning is just as great as Marina Andreevna.
I never knew that Russian history was so British
Well , you'd be surprised at how related they are based on history.
It would be better if the actresses were Russian.
Huzzah!🍷
It IS based on historical facts... Sort of...

What show is this
@@candipontenberg3683 The Great
Nicholas' acting was something. He's a good comic
Did you never see skins?
Elle is great - but Nicholas is fantastic!! The satirical element is built of his performance 👏

Elle Fanning has turned into one of my favorite actresses
I absolutely adore her
Just finished season one and I am IN LOVE with this show!!!! I need season two nooooowwwwww!!!!
It's out now. Like the trailer
Where did you watch this serie?
Where to watch aside in hulu?
How are you doing now? Do you have a favourite show now? Do you find time to watch it like you used to, little human?
As being part Russian and closely related to that culture, I thought that it will be “another American show”, but it is in fact so sarcastic, funny and true
@@deimos2126 except when someone wants to complain about it then you quickly hear about the American portion of the production teams
True! True? True! Other than a few names this show has no resemblance to truth. It makes Mel Gibson look like a great historian in comparison.

Surprisingly good show.

Didn't know Russians sounded like downtown abbey back in the day
I think the members of the Imperial Russian court actually spoke primarily in French, but I could be wrong

Never English 😁
They spoke Russian. Catherine made a good first impression on Peters mother because she could already speak Russian by the time she came to court.

It's meant to be a comedy, it's not meant to be accurate.

Alright! * *resigned* * That Series 2 convinced me to give it a go! If I'm bored, I'll simply skip ahead. How terrible could it be?
If you consider Catherine in season 1 as the "Good Guy", then you should consider Cersei Lannister as the "Good Guy" too.
WHERE CAN I WATCH IT?? IM IN THE PHILIPPINES 😭
It's available in Netflix.
@@liminalstate4250 no its not i just checked it
@@nicolebaes4551 Really?? I watched that before in Netflix. I guess it was removed already.
I was surprised at how many black folk there was way back in pre Revolution Russia.
was she also the small kid in the narnia movie?
Definitely reminds me of The Death of Stalin
That was an under appreciated movie.
Good series !!! I like it
Is this show offensive to russians? If yes, I'm gonna watch
the real story can be much more scintillating and comical without making Cathrine (Sophie Friederike Auguste) look like a fool. but as satire, it is fun to watch...

Honestly I feel deprived of good TV....this hits the spot lol

A completely historically inaccurate comedy, and you complain about skin colour?

What a show👌

This is not supposed to be a documentary. As displayed in the title. I love Ekaterina but you can't compare the 2.
@@trusainthm definitely agree. They aren’t even comparable
I feel like the intention and theme of this show is different, it's a comedy not a straitlaced historical drama or docu-series.
Remote possibility this is a farce, a parody if you will. Remote.

boa tarde
Russian accent training wasn't in the budget lol.
I approve 👍
