'The Crown' returns to Netflix after a hiatus of nearly two years. Read review of the drama's third season: TheCrown
was always going to be a show in transition for its third season.
Even in transition, though, these 10 episodes mark a welcome return for a reliably thoughtful, gorgeously produced drama that, if anything, suffers from sticking a bit too closely to our traditional concept of prestige. Austere and immaculately polished,remains a model for carefully crafted episodic storytelling, a trenchant examination of the nature of power and, remarkably, now features a new ensemble that proves every bit the equal of the first.
New faces to the cast include Jason Watkins as Prime Minister Wilson; Erin Doherty, a spirited addition as Princess Anne; Charles Dance in fine imperious form as Louis Mountbatten; and the great Derek Jacobi replacing Alex Jennings to chart the last days of the former King Edward VIII. Mark Lewis Jones has a great one-episode guest turn as a Welsh nationalist and Clancy Brown makes for a very unlikely, but highly amusing, LBJ in another one-episode turn.
Capturing Elizabeth's provocative banality has always been Morgan's most difficult task and this season is a string of nearly stand-alone one-hour plays in which the writer layers in internal parallels — most expertly in the moon landing episode in which Elizabeth recognizes her own plight in the clean-cut, personality-free heroism of the Apollo 11 crew, while Philip wishes they had the dynamism he simultaneously longs for himself.
