His death broke me, haven't been able to continue watching the show. After Catherine accepted he died, her walking around in his clothes and her crying. I literally can't watch her process her grief without crying, their love was the best part of the show.
Right? It was so inspiring to see two people who were, conceptually, incompatible as could be and yet underneath very compatible. As they used shovels on one another and revealed their true colors, they fell in love? What a story. Does that even ever happen in marriage, let alone arranged marriages? (arranged marriages have a lower divorce rate, so clearly we are approaching it all wrong).
This scene (episode as well) was beautifully done by Elle it really showed her range in acting. I was quite surprised with how it ended. BUT I loved how it did so; so curious to know what will happen for Catherine in hopes of season 4. Huzzah to an amazing cast in bringing so much to the table for season 3! 🥂👸🏼🎉
@@xDeadlyWarriorXIt's about love and loss and people being cruel to each other and people being kind. It's about trusting the wrong people and trusting the right people. It's about Russia and all of us. It's about how we can get by in this crazy world we live in. It's a roll and coaster ride that makes you sad and happy at the same time and I'm glad I rode it through to the end. ( lt is definitely not for kids or if you are easily offended. There's a lot of LSV)
@@SpringVioletta although many people might be sad to hear that... but for me, this is the best because I don't want to see Cetrine alone without pitter..
You know I wanted to blame so many people for what happened to Peter: Catherine for bringing up Sweden, Velementov for not going to see Vinodel and realizing he wasn’t going to die and then he wouldn’t have agreed to take Peter to Sweden to have his last battle, Peter’s dad for being a miserable SOB and haunting his memories, and of course Hugo for worming his way into Peter’s head to retake Sweden But at the end of the day it all comes back to Peter and his obsession with legacy He was more than enough for Paul and Catherine; I just wish he would have realized that before he got on the ice 😭
I think this is maybe one of the best directions the show could have gone. Yes, it was heartbreaking but we know and it was even said by the marriage witch woman that both of them are really strong personalities and will one day end up ruining each other. Peter's obsession with his legacy would have come up one way or the other. Also we forget that the story is about Catherine's great love, not for Peter but for Russia. Just my two cents.
Definitely different from what actually happened (Peter's true death was FAR more gruesome, where one of Catherine's lovers and his brothers marched into Peter's room at the dead of night and essentially beat him to death).
Actually there isn't any record of how Peter died..but there have always been rumours and assumptions throughout history to suggest his death was suspicious. Also Peter the Great eat was his grandfather and not his father...etc. This show is Brilliant..let's not let the truth, get in the way of a good story..🤫🙂
Noo this is so sad I got to the end of this scene and checked to see if he actually died😭 their romance was the best part of the show, I might not finish the series now😩
It is really emotional but Elle's performance is really good on the last 3 episodes. There's also a scene where Katya performs a play mocking Catherine and she didn't do anything about it
Literally same... Had a grief trauma relapse and this scene somehow undid months of healing and made me super depressed again for ages.... I felt real grief watching this...
The only thing that I hate is that they show the horse sinking like a rock as soon as the ice broke. That's not how it works. They would have floated/swam for at least a few minutes. It could have been even more tragic if he was stuck and coul have said something. I really hated his character at the beginning but by the third season I really became fond of him.
@@shockingbunny2122 if the current was that strong then I didn't think the ice would form in the middle of the river, but I'm no expert so I could be wrong. Also I think they would be dragged under the ice, go down the river, and then they might sink down.
There are rivers in the US that will completely freeze over and still have a swift current underneath , so that would have been possible with what happened to Peter . Also with the horse panicking, his feet in the stirrups and heavy clothing, he was a goner @@BS-ne5cr
Purchased Season Three of The Great on Apple TV solely for my niece and I to get more of Peter. Fell in love with his quirky character Season 1 and onto Season 2. He made the show the hit it has been. Just reached the scene of his death, my 12 year old niece is crying and neither of us care to watch the rest of the show. Is his ghost a feature of the remaining episodes? Only then might enduring Fanning further be worth the while. ☹️💔💔😭
This was a terrible move by the writers. It's not the same show without Peter and since they're going so far off the real history they might as well have kept him alive 😒 I've loved this show for so long but stopped after this scene.
I wonder if the fact that they chose to have him drowned was a reference to the Bible and him not being saved was the way they said that Catherine was chosen by god especially with what’s his face being buried alive
Never seen the show But they made up Than fought Than he left on the horse And I was like... wait, isn't that a frozen lake? He's gonna fall in isn't he...😑 Yep
at first this seemed shocking but he is choosing to go die as she tries to save him... the alternative of this silly death is one that is much more gruesome
"well actually" what was he about to say? Was he finally realized it's a mistake just after a few seconds? And why can't he wait until the winter's over? Why must he pass that river did he not know it's a snow not a cement? 😭
Well that was an anticlimactic death considering all the bs he did in the series. Would have atleast expected a cathartic assassination or something since this is historical fiction.
Indeed that stupid mcnamara, he did it cuz he want to shock the audience and he didnt just shocked us he lost us, Im not sure im if im gonna watch this show anymore
Because he died shortly after he was overthrown, that’s the historical event. They didn’t love each other it was a political marriage. Some historians say that Paul the First wasn’t even Peter’s legitimate son. Catherine had ten, maybe, seventeen lovers in her lifetime, perhaps even more. The show romanticizes their relationship and everyone around them, and they did a fantastic job, in my opinion. This is why “ An occasionally true story” is part of the title.
The real Peter died 6-months after becoming emperor, as Catherine took control of the government and imprisoned him so that she could reign as empress.
@@redrasegarden it’s open to debate. He was very pro Prussian, said to me mean and spiteful, some mentioned him being childish, but he did make some positive changes in Russia. In the end, the people of Russia couldn’t stand him, and didn’t lift a finger to help him when Catherine had him imprisoned.

Heartbroken about Peters death but I find it so fitting that his last words were "Oh shit" 😭
it shouldve been huzzah

i was excited to watch it but i got tears in my eyes because of this marvelous spoiler
thanks for the spoiler dickhead, and the legend that hearted it to make sure everyone sees it, bravo

Well historically he never loved her or cared for her and same for her. And the series won't be continuing so
A bit ironic considering in Season 1 he was telling his generals to just walk over a river and attack the Swedish.
He whole reaction and her processing of the grief was brilliant. Such an amazing actress.
hearing catherine in her own head voice was so crisp and so immersive.. so chilling.. god this show..
what voice she didn't speak
@@kyliebolding1875 headvoice, the audio that comes from inside you, we heard her as if we were her
Never in my life have I experienced such a jaw dropping scene. My mouth was wide open for a solid minute. I couldn't believe it.
glad im not the only one 😂😂😂
So upset and didn't believe it!
The whole rest of the season I kept thinking he would miraculously pop up out of some corner somewhere. I miss him 😭💔
There are very few shows that can go from hilarity to heart break in seconds. The show is packed with these moments. I love it.

mom and dad really fuck him up
I blame mcnamara cuz he think shocking the audience is good writing, its not!
i blame the writer bcs him dying was just idk it shouldn’t have happened bcs peter had a redemption arc so him dying was unnecessary
@@teodorahihi1165 because he really died

I couldn't believe he actually died! So well done, especially the choice from 4:00 onward to be in Catherine's head makes it feel so unreal.
It's so sad that some of Catherine's last words to Peter were "You do this and you can't come back" 😢 1:19
I remember thinking exactly, "oooh is that a good idea? riding a horse on the ice like that?" and it turns out I was right
Historical inaccurate but so beautiful and enjoyable to watch.
Definitely different from what actually happened (Peter's true death was FAR more gruesome, where one of Catherine's lovers and his brothers marched into Peter's room at the dead of night and essentially beat him to death).
But we love Grigor.

Found this GEM by accident last week. Now on season 2 and cant get enough. How they blend hilarity with tragedy is very clever. Bravo to the acting.
I also do that, find a new show, then find out the ending before I have finished, it's youtubes fault
This show is brilliant. Nicholas Hoult and Elle Fanning are class actors.
his last words being "oh shit" is very fitting.
Elle Fanning has surpassed her sister by fathoms with her acting prowess. She deserves an emmy for this series.
I only lightly spoiled this episode where I read the first line of a review “my heart is broken”
I figured it out the second he got on the ice
Noo this is so sad I got to the end of this scene and checked to see if he actually died😭 their romance was the best part of the show, I might not finish the series now😩
I havent been able to go back - it broke my heart.
The entire episode 6 is emmy material
"And you know I love them all, even when I find them baffling and idiotic. I just ask the same of you." That is what TRUE LOVE is.
It is so sad that they end up like this!😔
Ohhh 😢 i miss a lot 🥺 Peter & Paul scenes, Peter & Catherine and him all sneces 😓🖤❤️
I just couldn't continue watching it after Peter died.
Me either
It is really emotional but Elle's performance is really good on the last 3 episodes.
There's also a scene where Katya performs a play mocking Catherine and she didn't do anything about it
That's because Peter was the show
I was so shocked and sad by the end💔
Ok but that poor horse.
My only thoughts as well, no one else is talking about it 😭
jesus this is fucking hard to watch knowing how it ends
This is a masterpiece. That direction, her reaction, the muffled voice, her shallow breathing... It's SO perfect! I felt just like her!
This scene broke my heart
We wanted him dead, then not. Now he is dead
❤I was shocked and screamed when I saw the pitter fall into the ice... it was like a wound that was so deep.. it was a very brutal, sad part
This is the absolutely best show ever 💯
xD he ran on that ice with such ease...
This shook me to the core. I had a random panic attack later that night
Literally same... Had a grief trauma relapse and this scene somehow undid months of healing and made me super depressed again for ages.... I felt real grief watching this...
“Oh shit “ being his last words
The only thing that I hate is that they show the horse sinking like a rock as soon as the ice broke. That's not how it works. They would have floated/swam for at least a few minutes. It could have been even more tragic if he was stuck and coul have said something.
I really hated his character at the beginning but by the third season I really became fond of him.
It's kind of hilarious watching the ground fall out beneath them though and poof, gone.
So your saying it would be physically impossible for them to fall in and immediately be swept away by the current underneath.
@@shockingbunny2122 if the current was that strong then I didn't think the ice would form in the middle of the river, but I'm no expert so I could be wrong. Also I think they would be dragged under the ice, go down the river, and then they might sink down.
There are rivers in the US that will completely freeze over and still have a swift current underneath , so that would have been possible with what happened to Peter .
Also with the horse panicking, his feet in the stirrups and heavy clothing, he was a goner @@BS-ne5cr
so sad peter was the best part
So hard to accept 😢💔
IFKR 😢
I was waiting for you to post season 3! 🎉
I love you, with my whole fucking heart and all my body and whatever ineffable spirit animates me.

Well I definitely didn’t expect that
Award for anyone who was able to watch past this episode 🏆
can we please jon snow peter :'(
Nous sommes tous choqué ! Je pense que personne ne s'attendait que Pierre meurt et pas aussi tôt dans la saison.
I wonder if the fact that they chose to have him drowned was a reference to the Bible and him not being saved was the way they said that Catherine was chosen by god especially with what’s his face being buried alive
The “oh shit” was funny tho ❤
Never seen the show
But they made up
Than fought
Than he left on the horse
And I was like... wait, isn't that a frozen lake?
He's gonna fall in isn't he...😑
Yep
He was about to change his mind 💔
And the horse 😮
at first this seemed shocking but he is choosing to go die as she tries to save him... the alternative of this silly death is one that is much more gruesome
"Oh,shit"
I cant even imagine what Catherine would say if she saw this show
Who cares, the show was never meant to be historically accurate
I’m sorry but I couldn’t wait for him to go😭
"well actually" what was he about to say? Was he finally realized it's a mistake just after a few seconds? And why can't he wait until the winter's over? Why must he pass that river did he not know it's a snow not a cement? 😭
Say what you will - the world is better off without that monster on earth. Call if justice. Honestly I feel more sorry for the horse
Could there be two more charming actors than these?
Poor Horse.
Saw that from a mile away.
I love this show eventhough its soo grossly historically inaccurate :D
Well that was an anticlimactic death considering all the bs he did in the series. Would have atleast expected a cathartic assassination or something since this is historical fiction.
Poor horse 😥
What show is this?
The Great!
This was fucking brutal
🥺🥺
This is the only romantic story I’m into cuz as a dude this is joe crazy you have to be to date women now
O only felt sorry for the house
Wait he actually does here??? I mean he met his end quite differently...
4:00 el momento exacto en que la serie se arruina y se gana el hate del fandon y posiblemente la terminen cancelando,porque hiciste esto macnamara
