    • Trivia
      The character of Orlo appears to be loosely based on the similarly named real-life figure Grigory Orlov, who led the coup that overthrew Peter.
    • Goofs
      During the show there are songs performed in Russian language that have nothing to do with the historic period depicted in the show. An example of it is a children's choir singing a patriotic song about the Red Army during the dinner with the ambassador of Sweden. The Red Army did not exist until 1918, a year after the Russian Revolution. Another song featured in the show was about the fight of Soviet people against the Naazi Germany during the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945) and has been widely popular in the war-torn former USSR.

    Inaccurate and Thrilling
    I love the history of Catherine the Great, and this isn't it. However it is hilarious, smart, sarcastic, and almost resembling her story.

    I wanted to hate it, but I loved it. I hope they keep it going.
