Original (Russian) Translation (English) ДА ЧТО ТАК КРУТО ТО А?! Эта линейка становится всё лучше и лучше. Ставки поднимаются до предела, а вместе с этим дебютирует... Романа Третья?! Мне она очень нравится. В ней есть немного от её прошлых версий - красота и элегантность от Первой, серьёзность и расчётливость от Второй, и манипуляции от неё самой. Очень таинственная инкарнация, мне нравится. И снова с ноги врывается клиффхэнгер. Что ж, ладно, дослушаю этот сезон за один присест WELL, WHY IS IT SO COOL, HUH?! This series just keeps getting better and better. The stakes are raised to the limit, and with that debuts... Romana the Third?! I really like her. She has a bit of her previous versions - beauty and elegance from the First, seriousness and calculativeness from the Second, and manipulations from herself. A very mysterious incarnation, I like it. And once again, a cliffhanger bursts in. Well, okay, I'll finish this season in one go. (Translation generated by AI, so mistakes are possible).

Well this was a banger wasn't it? I knew for years that Juliet Landau played Romana III, what I was not expecting was the girlish almost slightly seductive but still deadly version of Romana. She is very much the villain of the set, though I don't think her aims are villainous outside of opposing the main characters and our Romana. They were several fun nods to classic lines in show history, that somehow felt fun and not forced. This did suffer from the few characters problem, but the interplay between the core four in this episode is just too delicious to ignore. I have no idea where we're going next, but the ever-shifting priorities never fail to make for a sparkling episode. Guardax View profile Like Liked 3 Open in new window Statistics AVG.
