Reign

Anyone else hooked on Reign? I recorded it on my DVR but didn't watch any episodes until the week of Christmas when I was couch bound with bronchitis. I watched 7 episodes one after the other. I had one more to go and decided to take a break. I waited until after Palm Springs and then watched the 8th episode. Still loved it. Nothing will ever fill the void of Gossip Girl (the clothes! the music! the beloved characters!) BUT Reign is coming pretty close. TV.com does hilarious recaps of each episode (I love that they call Mary "Mary, Queen of Hotties").

The show is back from hiatus tonight on the CW at 9/8c. 

the show centers on Mary, Queen of Scots

All good CW shows have a juicy love triangle! In Reign you have half brothers (one is the future king, Prince Francis, the other is the illegitimate son, Bash) fighting for Mary

The ladies in waiting are Mary's BFFs and thanks to them I have now added a new name to my future baby list, Greer

    I LOVE Reign!!!! I am a huge British history nerd, but I don't mind that it's not "historically accurate". It's so fun and like a historical take on GG!

      Agreed! I doubt they can make it that historically accurate given that the real Francis died pretty young ;)

    I love Reign too! I binge-watched over Christmas break.

    I also got into Scandal! I can't believe I haven't watched it before now. :)

    I absolutely love reign!! The cloths and cast are gorgeous, and I like the slight supernatural edge they throw in now and again.

      The clothes are amazing. I wonder how long it takes them to get in costume!

      I agree about the supernatural edge. It's fun!
