The Great - Hulu comedy/drama series loosely based on Catharine the Great

I just finished the first series and-- IMO-- this is one of the best series on tv right now. I had avoided watching it since I really didn't like Nicholas Hoult although not sure why. Now I think he's so damn hot and talented. The show is very funny, at times hilarious, somewhat historical (loosely) but it has everything-- beautiful costumes, gorgeous production, witty dialogue and great acting.

Hoult steals every scene he's in, he is an underrated actor and comedian. And he is so damn gorgeous, especially when he's dressed to the nines as the royal Emperor Peter. His clothing is another star in the series.

After I learned that GG and SAG had nominated the series for best comedy show, I decided to watch it. Hoult has been nominated for best comedy actor by GG, Critics Choice award and SAG.

I don't think many people know about this series since it's not on Netflix. Anyone seen it?

Great series. Hoult is the MVP and he’s best when he’s undressed. What a cute little ass.

Loved Hoult in this but didn’t love Elle that much. Hope Hoult gets other comedy roles

Hoult is going to be in the next MI5 movie as a villain. I suppose that will be his forte - a villain or comedy. It sounds like he prefers that than leading man in a drama.

Hoult had to depart MI7 because of a the film's delay. He was replaced by Esai Morales.

His SKINS character was a bit of a baddie and he was the villain in THE HISTORY OF THE KELLY GANG.

R4 I forgot he started on SKINS. He had a blowjob moment with another guy on that show that would have been hot if it wasn’t so brief

Great show, I’m looking forward to season 2.

Haven't there been about three major Catherine the Great projects the last few years?
