So, I heard this episode was boring... The show seems to be fading fast. :/ It had so much promise at the beginning, but it has definitely been disappointing in all aspects.

Which is surprising considering how exciting the promo looked. If the show continues on this way, they probably won't get a s3. I think they kind of shot themselves in the foot when they decided to marry off every character in the first season. It's like any character growth is kind of relegated to the marriage since most of their storylines will probably revolve around their marriage partner.

Torrance said they are doing things that he thought would be seen in season 3. I feel like the reign writers are just shooting themselves in the foot. It's like they don't want this show to last the 6 seasons the series regulars are usually contracted for. i was hoping they would slow the pace after ep 13 but nope.

The writers definitely have a pacing problem, and it has irritated me since the beginning. I think that's the biggest issue. The characters could easily be developed, but the show is more plot driven. Even then, the plot is pushed along so quickly everything that occurs feels unimportant. I don't think they want the show to last very long. I feel they always anticipated the show lasting about three seasons. Honestly, I think they set the first season up to be an ending point if the show wasn't renewed. |

The show does feel different once FM got married and not in a good way these past episodes have really lackedspark.You can literally feel the change and the rating really prove it because once you’ve married off al your characters the fans loose interest and they won’t stay to watch all these couple’s married lives.They need a ship where they don’t know whats going to happen,if they will end up togethe or not,the happiens,the pain Mash si really the only couple on Reign who have all these things and if the show kills this ship for real people won’t tune in to watch next season because what’s left to watch really?Politics,baby storylines?And I can’t believe that any writer would want their show to get cancelled which is exactly what will happen if they continue to kill the excitement off their fans.

They definitely pushed KB in this episode. Their interactions seemed premature. Especially if you consider how things ended in the the last episode. What's new, though? lol I don't mind KB. I think Torrance and Caitlin have more chemistry than Toby and Ade do at the moment. I don't know if it's the writing or what, but Francis and Mary just seem so dull. There's no spark in their scenes. They were better at the beginning of the season. Much better. Maybe, it's just the whole idea of them being married? I don't know.

Their interactions did seem premature. I didn't feel like Kenna was herself at all. I was at least hoping for some of her usual attitude, but didn't see any of it.

So I watched the episode, and Kenna is obviously gonna fall hard for Bash because he's been the one man who has actually treated her nicely. I think Bash will grow to like her, not love her, but care for her. That is just who Bash is.

I kind of figured Bash would step up and accept his role as husband. He has accepted that this is his fate. His attitude towards the marriage shows that Bash is a genuinely a good guy. So, I think it will be hard for Kenna to not fall in love with him. I,also, think Kenna will end up falling in love with Bash.
Either way, I don't think we will have much Mary and Bash in the future episodes. Adelaide hints that Mary doesn't approve of the union between Bash/Kenna, but she also kinda implies Mary is more involved in the political stuff. Kenna-The further Kenna falls the more jealous she'll become, and I suspect Bash will dish out an "I love YOU" to subside her insecurities. Probably in the finale. I feel like the audience will doubt where Bash's heart truly lies, because we'll see Kenna's point of view more than his. |

I'm convinced now more than ever that Bash will have the duty vs. love story. (i.e. duty=wife=Kenna and love=Mary). Bash is a good and caring guy, we all expected that from him. I think he'll start to care for Kenna but I don't think it'll ever be a love match for him. Because at the end of the day, he had no choice in the matter and neither did she. In his heart, he's always going to choose Mary, I think that's pretty obvious. I just hope they keep Bash at an honest place with Kenna because it'd be a shame for him to start lying to her just to placate her. I just can't support the ship because of how it began and romanticizing it doesn't make it okay with me. But I know I'm one of the few fans who feels that way.
Ultimately, this is all going to circle around back to Mash. It's just going to be a slow burn. I'm looking forward to them coming back together as allies, friends, whatever. Because they always made a good team and they trust each other. That just gives them room to grow in their feelings, even if they don't act on them. __________________

Hey Guys!!
Well where do I begin... The episode was ok.... I liked that Mary stood up to everyone and fought for her country, I even liked that she was straight up with Francis and told him, my country comes first, i wasnt joking Sorry Francis but you are a prince and Mary is a Queen, and tonight just proved what a little lap dog you are... He literally was just doing her bidding the whole episode and I found solace in that Their relationship is humorous to me and I cant take them seriously.. Catherine being a little minx was awesome! Can someone kill Penelope??? please?? Henry can die now, seriously... I know he's sick but I hate how he treats Bash, he's such a jerk... Joking about Bash having his son is just nasty.. Its not that Bash loves Kenna but he has respect for himself and obviously doesnt want this humiliation to continue into his marriage... I thought their scenes were funny, and Bash being the amazing man he is stood up and took care of his wife. I expect nothing less from him... Lola and Julien?? What on earth is going on there??? Very confused, but I do enjoy seeing Julien on my tv screen |
