You know how Peter Morgan LOVES shots of people arriving places in cars, as if we could not figure out how a person would get to Buckingham Palace without them ("what if they think it was a hot air balloon," he frets)? And how he ALSO loves shots of people from behind? Well, congrats, that's literally all the new teaser for *The Crown* consists of! (I will admit that the shot of Diana's train is *very* effective.) This truly feels like the sort of trailer you cut when half of these characters haven't yet been cast so you don't want to show an actor's face:

It sort of reminds me of the Next On teasers for *Mad Men*. You could tell Matt Weiner loathed them -- you could also tell he loathed having to work in a commercial break, which is absurd to me; you're on AMC, and *Breaking Bad* does it beautifully, so please accept this. This has been a memo from 2008 -- because they were always just, like, Don answering the phone and saying, "Hello?" and maybe Roger sticking his head in the door and saying, "they're here," and then a shot of Betty leaning against a door and smoking. I guess at least in this case, you get the general gist: Diana's here and they're about to really fuck this up! Regardless: I look VERY forward to watching this; luxuriating in how expensive it is; complimenting most of the actors on their very adept performances; *loving* at least one episode; getting BIG MAD about another for some reason; and then complaining about a bunch of other nitpicky stuff! Business as usual! For once!
