TV Series. Drama TV Series (2018). 8 Episodes. Eight hourlong episodes, each of which will tell a standalone story with no recurring plot elements or actors. The only common thread is that each episode will tell the stories of people in contemporary times who believe they are descendants of the imperial family that ruled Russia from 1613 until the Bolsheviks seized power in 1917.

	Author	Review
United States	Caroline Framke Variety	"Even when 'The Romanoffs' doesn’t always click into place, it can still be hypnotizing to watch its gears work to get there (...) The themes quickly become repetitive"	NEU
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Full of wild creative ambition and messy missteps (...) Some viewers will be enthralled by Weiner's literary conceits and by his intended scope, others quickly dismissive of the untethered quality"	NEU
United States	Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"Even a small moment like two characters holding hands can feel enormously moving (...) [Weiner] gets excellent, lived-in performances from his actors (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Matt Zoller Seitz Vulture	"'The Romanoffs' is looser and more relaxed than 'Mad Men' in ways that both please and frustrate"	NEU
United States	Ben Travers IndieWire	"Shallow, self-Indulgent (...) Predictable and misguided, the first two feature-length episodes of 'The Romanoffs' are so bad it's almost unbelievable."	NEG
United States	Allison Keene Collider	"Weiner has once again crafted a wonderfully detailed world (...) As great as these actors are, they can’t always save what are often thinly drawn characters (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
