I'm currently watching The Crown, you know? But I must confess I didn't want to at first. History has never been one of my favorite subjects. Furthermore, remembering dates and events has never been my strongest skill—it caused me a lot of headaches and tears, to be totally honest. But I know I need to consume English content to improve my comprehension and articulation, and I also want to learn more about its culture and traditions. So, my roommate suggested I watch it with her, even though she had already finished the series.
Well, it's true that I don't always understand some expressions or situations, but I'm following the plot and enjoying it immensely. In fact—be careful, this is a mini spoiler—when I finished the first two seasons, I needed some time before continuing. I had grown used to admiring Claire Foy's portrayal of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, and I didn't want her to leave. This happened around Christmas, so after a few more days, I gave it another try, and... yes, I missed her, but they did a great job with the transition, the ageing process, and I absolutely adore Olivia Colman's work.
Now, I have two seasons and a half left, and I'm sure I'm going to miss this series when I binge-watch the rest!
