‘The Crown’ Season 5
The Crown Season 5 is the one the royal family has been dreading. It’s the one where Elizabeth II (Imelda Staunton) suddenly finds herself unpopular, Charles (Dominic West) has his private conversations with Camilla (Olivia Williams) leaked to the press, and Fergie getting her toes sucked. It is a tawdry, trashy saga that feels oftentimes in opposition to the classy reputation both the royals and The Crown have cultivated for years. While The Crown Season 5 may not be the best installment of the Netflix series, it’s still rip-roaring television. It’s a sumptuous soap opera full of seedy gossip and low-stakes history. Binge it at your leisure.
