- Check out the official trailer for Hulu Original comedy series "The Great"! Season two premieres with all ten episodes on November 19 on Hulu.

Meanwhile she’ll also battle her heart as Peter slowly transitions from much-hated husband, to prisoner? Ally? Lover? Ultimately Catherine will learn that to change a country, you must let it change you, that there is a fine line between idealism and delusion, and that becoming 'Great', will ask more of her than she could have imagined.
