When Is Season 2 Of The Great Coming Out

Okay, let's get real for a sec. We're all wondering the same thing. When, oh WHEN, is season two of The Great... coming out?
The Wait is Killing Me (and Maybe You Too?)
Seriously, I'm checking Hulu every. Single. Day. My thumb is practically glued to the refresh button. Is that too much to admit? Maybe. But I'm among friends (internet friends, but still!).
Remember how we all binged season one? It was glorious! Catherine's ambition, Nicholas Hoult's... everything. It was pure comedic perfection.
Must Read
I even started using the word "huzzah" ironically. (Okay, not entirely ironically.) Don't judge me.
Clues? Breadcrumbs? We Need Something!
I've been scouring the internet for clues. Reddit threads? Check. Unreliable gossip blogs? Double check. Even my grandma asked me if I had "seen anything about that show with the funny accents."
The struggle is real, people. It's like waiting for your online shopping order to arrive. Except, imagine if the package was filled with witty historical fiction and amazing costumes.

So far? Nada. Zilch. Just crickets. Hulu, please, throw us a bone here!
My Unpopular Opinion (Prepare Yourselves)
Okay, I'm going to say it. I think the delay might actually be... a good thing? Don't throw tomatoes at me yet! Hear me out.
Sometimes, waiting makes things even better. The anticipation builds. We have time to rewatch season one (for the tenth time).

Think about it. Remember that amazing pizza you ordered after being super hungry? It tasted ten times better than usual, right? It is the same idea!
But Seriously, Hulu, Hurry Up!
That being said... hurry up, Hulu! My patience is wearing thin. I need more Catherine the Great in my life. I need more questionable historical accuracy!
My mental health depends on it. (Okay, maybe that's a slight exaggeration.) Still, you get the point.

I need the outrageous costumes! I want the clever writing! I desperately require more Nicholas Hoult being delightfully awful.
What We Can Do While We Wait (Besides Refreshing Hulu)
So, what can we do in the meantime? Re-watch season one (duh!). Read some biographies about Catherine the Great (or just Wikipedia, no shame!).
Try to master a Russian accent (good luck!). Binge-watch other period dramas (The Tudors, anyone?).

And most importantly, let's keep the hope alive. Season two is coming. It has to be. The universe wouldn't be so cruel as to deprive us of more The Great.
Final Thoughts (and a Plea to Hulu)
Until then, I'll be here, hitting refresh. Dreaming of Catherine's witty retorts and Peter's ridiculous antics.
So, Hulu, if you're reading this (and I'm sure you are), please, please, please give us a release date. Pretty please with a cherry on top?
The world needs more The Great. And frankly, I'm starting to think I might actually be turning into Catherine the Great. (Just kidding… mostly.)
