The reign of Reign is over. Deadline reports The CW has cancelled the TV series after four seasons.
The historical drama chronicles the rise of Mary, Queen of Scots in 16th century Europe. The cast includes Adelaide Kane, Torrance Coombs, Megan Follows, Toby Regbo, Celina Sinden, Caitlin Stasey, Anna Popplewell, Jonathan Keltz, Sean Teale, Craig Parker, Rose Williams, Rachel Skarsten, and Ben Geurens.
From the start, the series was never a strong performer in the ratings. Season three averaged .30 in the 18-49 demo rating and earned around 970,000 viewers.
The news comes just as Reign is beginning production on the season four finale. Apparently, producers were informed of the network’s decision to end the show and have written the season four finale as a series closer. The final season of Reign premieres on February 10th.
What do you think? Do you watch Reign? Are you sad the show is ending?
Started watching online with netflix, I cant get enough! so sad that they are not bringing it back. I hope Netflix picks up. The cast of fantastic actresses portraying strong women from history is wonderful.
i loved reign and wish they would bring it back
So sad! Wonderful series! Thank you for the many nights of Reign viewing parties with my friends and compelling so many of us to begin researching history, again. I think that had this show been promoted better, the ratings would have been much better. Most of us started watching this show by hearing about it through our friends. I hardly saw any “Reign” promos, but there certainly was an excess of “Jane the virgin” primos, during all seasons.
I hope Netflix picks it up i LOVED the show
I watched the entire five seasons in less than a month thanks to Netflix. And I do wished there would have been more! It was captivating! And kept me up all night on several occasions. I’m sad my short-lived addiction is now at its end. What shall I watch next?!!
I watch reign myself and i love watching Reign its a very good sho may not seem to me to be very accurate in actually historical events but i still love the show. I think they should give it another try and maybe ask the viewers what they want to see and happen. And i know that probably won’t happen at all but i don’t want Reign to really end at all.
I’m very sad Reign has been Cancelled…I loved the series.. have waited impatiently for each season.. so much history… and the cast is amazing…I want to see what happened to King James.. Mary’s Son and Queen Elizabeth ..to Greer .. .. great movie.. great cast.. great Director…the way it ended was not good.. it jumped twenty one years… You cancelled the most important part…young King James growing up…and the French Crown..and cast.. need to finish .. lol.. as Paul Harvey used to say ” and now the rest of the story”.
I am so upset they cancelled this show. I simply don’t understand why?!! Each season was better than the last and the stories kept getting more and more interesting. I am especially pissed off that CW cancelled them in the middle of their 4th season, I mean at least give them a 5th season to do a proper ******* ending.
I absolutely think it was the biggest mistake cancelling this show. It was amazing. Queen Mary played a strong role and I stayed up for hours on netflix watching it. I really hope someone picks this show back up because I think they had more people interested in this show than they think. I would love to see more!!!
I loved this show I hate that the show is ended hope another channel picks it up or maybe CW might start the show again. Will miss reign and didn’t like the ending.
Completely botched this show. Yes it was cheesy but I loved it. They absolutely ruined it by jumping to the end of Mary’s life at the end. Thank God they at least took her back to Francis, but seriously I have never been so disappointed by a shows ending. Very disappointed in the decision to cancel it.
I’m so sad it wa canceled and ythe finale rushed. It was a great show I’ll miss it
