"I’m not sure if I ever properly understood the meaning of the word 'sumptuous' until I sat down to watch Netflix's The Crown. Each episode of the historical epic chronicling the early lives of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip is more lavish than the next (no wonder, given its rumored $130 million budget), and Claire Foy, Matt Smith, and John Lithgow's jaw-dropping performances are some of the best of the year. The show is a slow burn, and luckily the pay off is more than worth it." — Quinn Keaney, assistant editor, Celebrity and Entertainment
