      89% Tomatometer 85 Reviews 96% Audience Score 1,000+ Ratings Based on an award-winning play ("The Audience") by showrunner Peter Morgan, this lavish, Netflix-original drama chronicles the life of Queen Elizabeth II from the 1940s to modern times. The series begins with an inside look at the early reign of the queen, who ascended the throne at age 25 after the death of her father, King George VI. As the decades pass, personal intrigues, romances, and political rivalries are revealed that played a big role in events that shaped the later years of the 20th century.

      Lauren Carroll Harris Guardian It's hard not to see The Crown as a missed opportunity. Jul 29, 2019 Full Review Hugo Rifkind Times (UK) While ardent monarchists might bristle at the way this is going, for the rest of us it's getting better and better. Dec 29, 2017 Full Review Rachel Cooke New Statesman If the sadness of the first series had an epic quality - a King died, and an old Queen - the misery now is of a more quotidian kind. But every scene continues to offer its own discrete pleasures. Dec 11, 2017 Full Review Tony Black Cultural Conversation A touch too much Philip doesn't dent this potent look at a Royal marriage in trouble. Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 30, 2022 Full Review Kshitij Rawat The Indian Express Even with the merry-go-round that are the first three episodes, The Crown more than redeems itself with some impressive character work and by giving much-needed attention to other characters. Mar 9, 2021 Full Review Neal Pollack Decider With Season 2, the flower is still golden, but the bloom has fallen off. The great saga of the end of Sir Winston has been replaced with kitchen-sink boredom about historical nonentities like Anthony Eden and Harold MacMillan. Jan 30, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

      Savannah G Fantastic! all together the first two seasons of this show really knocks it out of the park! there is a reason Claire gets the awards two times in a row. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/08/24 Full Review Duncan W Don't understand the super high ratings, fairly boring show Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/18/23 Full Review Sal D Claire Foy's outstanding performance keeps series momentum growing upward. Not actress will be able to cast a shadow on Foy's work here though Olivia Coleman does a good a job as possible in seasons 3 and 4. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/17/23 Full Review Joshua H A show that continues what works and adds to it, along with the cast continuing to be great and a well-told story, makes this a brilliant watch. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/31/23 Full Review Jason T Season 2 of The Crown explores major 20th Century political events while continuing the emotionally compelling family royal drama. Claire Foy's acting is unmatched. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/23/23 Full Review Jannav R Claire Foy continues to amaze me with her character in the second season. The character development in this season is huge and amazingly handled. The storyline of the marriage problems between Elizabeth and Philp is still my favorite storyline.
