Douban score: 9.4

At present, the drama has completed the first and second seasons, and the third season can't help but make us look forward to it. The Crown, produced by Netflix, takes us to spy on the real British royal family, and the protagonist is Queen Elizabeth II. Everyone knows the super standby ability of Queen Elizabeth II. She reigned for 65 years and was the longest reigning monarch in British history.

It is said that the play has been scheduled for six seasons, with ten episodes each season. The story of each season spans about 10 years, and the six seasons just correspond to the Queen's reign for more than 60 years.

Queen Elizabeth and her husband philip Mountbatten will also be starred by young, middle-aged and elderly actors (in two seasons), so claire foy, the actress in the first season, will still play in the second season, and matt smith, the actor in Doctor Who, will still play philip Mountbatten, the husband of Queen Elizabeth in the second season.

After the broadcast, Crown's global reputation exploded. At the beginning of this year, the Golden Globe Award and Crown beat the hit TV series Game of Thrones and westworld, and won the best drama series and the best actress in one fell swoop, which was in line with the domineering lines in the drama: "The kingship must win, and it must win forever."

Second place: the great and great Mrs. Mercer Mercer.

The first half of the life, which was discussed by the whole people in the early stage and destroyed in the later stage, was a hit this year, but there was a great Mercer lady who was called the first half of the American version, but she was more than three levels higher than the first half!

Directed by Amy Sherman-Palladino, Daniel Palladino and Scott Elis.

Starring: rachel brosnahan, Alexander Bostam, Tony Shalhoub and marin hinkle.

Genre: drama/comedy/family

In 1950s, 25-year-old Mickey Mersel was a smart, sunny, energetic and lovely Jewish woman. She once made the following statement about her life: going to college, getting married, having two or three children, and then serving Yom Kippur dinner in an elegant apartment in Manhattan. However, one day her husband suddenly left her, and she needed to think of a new way out as soon as possible without warning; For others, changing from a housewife to a stand-up comedian is obviously an amazing choice, but not for Mickey.

Some people will say that this drama is an old routine of "abandoning your wife and becoming stronger". This American drama is unusual! However, this is not a poisoned chicken soup full of jokes, but a drama about women's independence and self-awakening. At present, the first season of the play has been broadcast, and the second season is to be determined.

Students who watch this play must be psychologically prepared. This is a dark story about the differences between countries.

The focus of this drama is the supernatural future world, high-level production, luxurious cast and rich content make this American drama very worth seeing. However, compared with Black Mirror with the same theme, it is still slightly inferior.

This TV series tells the story of a transsexual father re-establishing a family. The protagonist's understanding of his transgender identity is the highlight of this play, but I believe everyone will also be attracted by the family relationship in the play.

Sixth, I love Dick.

Type: comedy

Production area: USA

Douban score: 8.0

This TV series mainly tells the test of the relationship between lovers, but the story content of this comedy involves subtle pictures related to sexual topics that will not be seen in TV series. But if you like another American drama "Transparent Family" by Jill Soloway, this drama may not be your dish ~

This is a story of superhero variation that has been repeatedly played. If you've seen enough superheroes like young-jun, maybe you should consider other TV dramas.
