There was tons of outrage and praise over Aladdin, Mulan, and Pocahontas and the 'princesses' of those movies.

Teflon means non-stick, meaning that bad stories don't affect a particular person's reputation, ie, 'Reagan was a Teflon president'.

Il dorito duce!

Yes, but among the other kids, two committed suicide, and one was an alcoholic, married four times, died young, and doth protested too much that his father was not bad.

Oh, was Gorby a pope too?

He married Mathison in '83. In '76 his wife was some other woman whose name starts with M.

I think these flashbacks are supposed to be reimaginings of what happened, so the actress young Maura reflected more how she may seen herself. In the same way that Rose is played by Ali's actor and the massive American accents in 1933 Germany.

In the spirit of revealing time travel tech, the radios in 1933 were far too small. And I doubt that a little girl then would have had one in her bedroom. Otherwise great show!

"Ashen"!

Huh, the show gave me the impression that "Porchey" was just some upper middle class shmo who likes horses and pines for the Queen, but wasn't nearly her social equal.

As a recovering Catholic, the pre-marital sex scene between the rabbi and her pious beau is deeply confusing.
Ditto for the fact that said unmarried rabbi was pregnant for a half a season and no one friggin made a peep.
Is Judaism really that lenient?

It's funny, there were so many early episodes (2) where they got a new tv but the exact same model, yet when they actually do get a different one they never even notice.

Yeah, are we supposed to believe it's some kind of magic episode or something? I sure hope someone got fired for that blunder.

The Royal Family can't unilaterally abolish the monarchy. Even if the Queen and the first 500 in line renounced the throne, the 501st would become monarch.

That's because this show doesn't really care if the staff cares that the Queen wanders around the house.

She should have choked on her own spit or blown her lungs out or something.

600 episodes and not even one showed when they got cell phones.

There's another man who sponsored photographers to take colour photos between around 1910 and 1930, everywhere in the world, though the quality isn't as good as these. Albert Kahn. 70,000 shots were taken but most of these photos haven't been released, though, and even his museum in Paris is rather paltry.

God what will Trump do to the Oval Office?

It will tell you something about Britain's history outside the Windsors, but imply that the history of the Windsors is of equal importance.
