The Great (2020 Series)

If the crown fits... take it.

A genre-bending, anti-historical ride through 18th-century Russia following the rise of Catherine the Nothing to Catherine the Great and her explosive relationship with her husband Peter, the emperor of Russia.

S02: Catherine finally takes the Russian throne for her own - but if she thought coup-ing her husband was difficult, it's nothing compared to the realities of 'liberating' a country that doesn't want to be. She'll battle her court, her team, and even her own mother in a bid to bring enlightenment to Russia. Meanwhile, she'll also battle her heart as Peter slowly transitions from a much-hated husband to a prisoner. Ally? Lover?

S03: Catherine and Peter attempt to make their marriage work after some seemingly insurmountable problems. Peter witnessed his own attempted murder at Catherine's hands and she also imprisoned all of his friends. On top of this, Peter is at a loose end playing First Husband to Catherine's reign, so he busies himself with fathering, hunting, and salty culinary ventures. But they're not enough to keep him contented as visions of his late father, get in his head about his failures as Peter the Great's son.
