The Crown: Season 4 is FANTASTIC

I just finished binge watching the latest season of ‘The Crown’ and once I started I couldn’t stop. I’ve been a fan of the Netflix series since it premiered and each season has been just as good as the last. 



Season 3 they recast the entire cast as each season progressed the timeline of Queen Elizabeth, so with each passing season more years passed. At first I was worried about recasting as I loved the cast from seasons 1 and 2, but my worries were quickly subsided. They are all great in the roles they play, especially Olivia Colman whom took on the role of Queen Elizabeth from Claire Foy, both being fantastic in the role. 



But ‘The X-Files’ star Gillian Anderson really stole the season with her portrayal of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. Being a X-Files fan I was worried I would just see Agent Scully, but Anderson was so amazing in the role I quickly forgot about Scully. She absolutely deserves an Emmy for her performance here. 



And finally the storyline of Charles and Diana (Josh O’Conner and Emma Corrin) played out this season was also Emmy worthy. 

Season 4 gets a solid 5 stars ***** out of 5 from this couch potato critic.
