$156 Million Show 'The Crown'
I'm half way thru; I watched five episodes. I don't normally watch TV...zero percent.
But once in a blue moon, like the Rio Olympics for example, I subscribed only for that and for that only.
...Also, 'Narcos', both seasons, and 'Making a Murderer'...awaiting Season 2, in 2017.
The other day, Catherine called me on the phone to see how I was doing, and she mentioned that she truly enjoy 'The Crown' with her husband.
I have few Blu-ray movies still un-watched in their wrappers...that I'm anxious to see.
But, 'The Crown' took over. I said to her I'll give it a look for ten minutes or so, because I'm not big on TV Series. But I got trapped, and now I can't get out.
The cinematography, the actors/actresses performances, the decors, the story construction, the montage, the music score, ...all is very first class.
It is sumptuously made and educative as well because it is based on THEE QUEEN, and her story plus more...the monarchy and many surrounding events.
I was going to start a thread on this, but I saw that Jim already started it; excellent. And he posted the exact trailer that I was going to.

"The Crown is an American-British television drama series, created and written by Peter Morgan and produced by Left Bank Pictures for Netflix. The show is a biographical story about the early reign of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom. The first season, comprising 10 one-hour episodes, was released in its entirety on November 4, 2016. Reception to the series was generally positive, with critics praising cast performances, direction, writing, cinematography, production values, and relatively accurate historical accounts of Queen Elizabeth's reign. A second season has been commissioned.
The Crown traces the life of Queen Elizabeth II from her wedding in 1947 to the present day. It is expected to span 60 episodes over six seasons, with Claire Foy playing the Queen in the early part of her reign.
The first season depicts events from 1947 to 1955."
