What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on The CW television network, Reign follows Adelaide Kane as Mary Queen of Scots.

The cast also includes Megan Follows, Celina Sinden, Craig Parker, Rose Williams, Charlie Carrick, and Ben Geurens.
Season Four Ratings

On December 7, 2016, The CW announced Reign was cancelled and there will be no season five. Could it be revived somehow? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
The Queen is dead. Long live the Queen! Ironically the Reign TV show, which has displayed little regard for history, soon itself will be history. To give this cancelled TV show its due, Reign was a cheesy fun romp with extra cheese. This sort of guilty pleasure is not good for one’s cholesterol levels, and yet, I cannot resist.
