I have absolutely no proof of this, but I thought of the idea for a The Crown-style show about Franz Joseph of Austria in January.

I only told 2 or 3 people and this is slightly different, but I don’t care. Netflix stole my idea.

I mean the original Sissi movie came out in 1955...your idea was stolen 67 years ago...

I had the same idea! Mainly because the last two seasons would be devastating and dramatic, with the Mayerling Hall tragedy and then Franz Ferdinand’s assassination escalating into the Great War.

I’m calling Louis XIV right now.

This makes me happy. I enjoyed this show.

Fun fact: The real Elisabeth was anorexic and loved to inject cocaine very much.

Yeah when I watched it was halfway decent, but a lot of altering history it felt like. I'd have to check the dates the show is supposed to be covering but in reality she was also almost immediately pregnant after her marriage.

Will be interesting what they touch on in season two. She may of been loved but boy is she a prime example of why therapy for body image issues is important.

Hopefully that’s coming down the pipeline….

Nice one!
