Aryan Mehra rated Season 1
Expected more drama from a show about royalty. The pacing was too slow for my taste. I appreciate the production values and the classy presentation, but it lacks the high-stakes tension I usually enjoy. The politics felt drawn out without enough payoff. Not exactly my cup of tea.
