Episode Synopsis

 
The Romanovs were the royal family of Russia pre WW I in early 1900s.  Wikipedia reports that the family was murdered by an opposing communist government. Rumors circled for years that the daughter and son had somehow been hidden away before soldiers attacked the family. Many myths and rumors have circulated regarding the entire family.  With those claiming to be descendants of the family the Romanoffs series tells the tails of those tragically connected souls.  Whether you spell it with a v or a double f  you are in for an suspenseful entertaining evening with tales from this royal bloodline.

Each episode is very clever in revealing the details of the story.  Very intricate stories that will always point to the person who is generally very proud to be of a royal lineage, however that connection often will be to their downfall. Tons of suspense connected to the thoughtful plots that draw you into their everyday lives. A lot of present day, and back-in-the-day, mixed in with references to the historical genesis.
There are tons of documentaries on Youtube about the family history.  Learning about the real people somehow made the Amazon series that much more appealing.
These are nothing like a hallmark movie each installment with high quality productions.  Great costuming and cinematography. So many little intricate things to look at in many of the scenes.  Jewelry, Faberge eggs, ball gowns, scenes from New York cafe’s, and European pubs, all marvelous and authentic looking - - to me
One episode takes place on a cruise! Heart emoji goes here!
I took a chance on a different type of online content and I was not disappointed.  Once again proving that cutting the proverbial cable cord was not a mistake.
