I was expecting this show "for the ladies", something like "Dynasty" of the past with Joan Collins.Surprisingly... wasn't at all! It's a well setup drama, a good biography, digging in a lot to the "closed doors" British Royal walls. The plot/story is great; Thxs God every episode is focusing on different character, like "Band of Brothers" did also and we didn't bored. Obviously, Queen Elisabeth is the "main focus" in every episode, but not so much. You have a character's story in every episode to deal with.The screenplay is great, the actors playing amazing,... I mean... wtf!!! I didn't expected this show to be SO GOOD!!!!They gave me all the DVDs (both seasons) together, I started this past Wednesday and... yesterday I watched the 10th episode of the second season!!!!!! I watched both seasons in almost 4 days - and be advised, each episode is 1 hr long!!!!!AMAZING show, start watching it now.I CAN'T WAIT till 2019 for the third season!!!!

I have to admit that I am not the biggest fan of the royal house. I'm not a hater, in fact I like to follow new about them and I like the people. I'm just not diehard fangirling. But this show definitely made me love them more. It gives you more knowledge on how their lives work and how much has changed from the past until now. It's very detailed without getting boring and makes you see things from a totally new perspective. Personally I've gained a lot more respect for the royal family after watching this

This is the most expensive show on Netflix it is absolutely a must watch because of the visuals, acting and direction !! Plus its like a documentary you learn so much about the British political system and the monarchy !!

Claire Foy and Matt Smith are amazing as the Queen and Duke... using aging as an excuse is totally BS as well because they have aged other actors in tv series and films!! I believe that after season 2 the Crown will flop and the only people that can be held accountable are the stupid people who made such ridiculous decisions!! Claire Foy portrays the queen perfectly and she is such an amazing and well liked actress playing such an iconic character please keep her!!
