I really enjoyed this show, though I am disappointed by the lack of coverage on it. (I suppose it’s not that abnormal right now but I do wish that more people were talking about it) The show is hilarious, well acted, and has amazing costumes. It’s not your typical period drama, from the almost complete disregard of actual facts to the absurd language, it draws you in immediately. The cast is more diverse than I thought it’d be, which was pleasantly surprising. I’m glad that since they weren’t going for accuracy anyways, they kind of just said “fuck it” and made the costumes and casting somewhat modern.

It’s definitely not for everyone, but if you like the Favourite, or raunchy comedies, then you’ll love it. I personally loved almost all the characters, as they really spent a lot of time developing almost all of them. I didn’t think I’d end up almost liking Peter, and yet I do. Count Orlo and Leo are definitely favorites, and I loved seeing Catherine’s progression as well.
