This must be somehow an allegory for Trump, right? Watching these trailers, that’s all I can think of. That, and “Make Europe Great Again" Laughing

First episode was meh, really flat. I dunno what they want to portray here. First episode was about the fact that the ruler is germaphobe but it was nothing, an overstretched gag.

Well it has Matthias Schoenaerts, so I'll give it a go. One of the writers from Succession as well. Apparently some of the humor falls flat, but in general it's good political satire.


There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.

good satire is hard to do, avenue 5, the brink just to name some hbo failed satires, all that good talent and big budget is wasted

Not the first episode. There's a lot of allusions to real life politicians like Winslet is based on Thatcher. There's mausoleum with Lenin-like body of former ruler etc. It has a great cast but the pilot just didn't catch on for me.
