Wonderful period piece. The role of Emperor of Russian fits Nicholas Hoult like a glove. He's far and away way above everyone else in this series. I've seen him as a bureaucrat in X-men origins, but never as smooth and funny as this. He's the best part of this show. He's a 20 and everyone else is a 4. Maybe it's just the way the characters are written, definitely a great show. Way funnier than I expected!
