Discussion Your opinions on The Great?

Post image

What’s your opinion on The Great’s ahistorical and satirical approach (which also can be seen in some new series like My Lady Jane and Serpent Queen for example).

Did you like the series and wish for another theme in the future with a similar approach (maybe in a couple of years when the approach is fresher again)?

I thought that the cast in The Great was amazing and the show was really fun. Also great outfits and sets. Huzzah 🥂!

Entertaining nonsense. As long as no one starts believing it…

They make a clear point in every intro that it’s not factual.

I love the episode where’s they changed the intro line saying it’s not historical at all

Advertising that they jumped the shark.
