The Great is a satirical, comedic drama about the rise of Catherine the Great, from outsider to longest-reigning female ruler in Russia’s history. Season One is a fictionalized, anachronistic story of an idealistic young girl who arrives in Russia for an arranged marriage, to the mercurial Emperor Peter. Hoping for love and sunshine, she finds instead a dangerous, depraved, backward world that she resolves to change. All she has to do is kill her husband, beat the church, baffle the military, and get the court onside.  TV-MA | 60 min
