And can I just say that watching Reign and loving Bash has given me new-found appreciation for Ian as an actor and handsome, handsome man. I love Bash's scenes, and his character, but I am not rewinding his scenes 50 times like I did with certain Damon scenes, if you know what I mean.

I do know what you mean....lol  It's hard to compare anyone to Ian without them failing miserably...  We are spoiled.  That's all there is to it!

[Charlotte]

Yeah I was debating whether to even post that because it sounds like an insult to the Bash actor and I do not mean it that way at all. But it did get me to thinking about when I started looking for Damon scenes online. Was it the drunken shirt scene that I loved first and had to go find? Probably should move to an Ian appreciation thread so I will stop here for now. Yay for handsome blue-eyed bad boys who aren't really bad boys!

Does anyone else feel really bad for Francis?

I do.....

and bash too. I like Condae but come on mary. If it's not Francis it needs to be Bash. Kenna is pissing me off too. Reign is just so sad right now.

[Charlotte]

Conde does nothing for me. I do like Francis and feel very sad for him right now. I realize he dies young in real life but I really hope they don't kill him off too soon. Mary is an idiot, as is Kenna. I wish they would keep the women strong and independent instead of fickle...

[Somerhaldered]

When I first started watching Reign, Francis was like 'meh' for me. Then I grew to love him and his love for Mary. Their relationship gave me such great feels and the way he loved her and would do anything for her, swoon - I was all in. As for this episode, I hated it. I mean, I liked the episode as a lot happened and it was entertaining but I hated Mary deciding to be with Conde. Give me a break - she could kiss him freely but could barely touch Francis anymore. At least she stopped before they made love, but clearly her pain is not all about the ****, but it also is still heavy on blaming Francis. I feel bad for Francis as he was fine with waiting for her and giving her all the space she needed...meanwhile she was out frolicking in the snow with Conde.

And don't get me started on Kenna and Bash. Poor Bash!! Ugh, these ladies are driving me nuts. For once, it's the men trying to be loyal and the ladies that are willing to throw it all away for their own gain.

I wouldn't mind if they strayed from history and had Mary beheaded for treason. OK, end rant, lol.

[Sweetluv4DE]

Ya I feel bad for Francis. I was never a mary and Francis shipper because of Bash. I always wanted Mary and Bash but if that's not gonna happen then she should be loyal to Francis. And the way it's going down is sad too. Francis has so much guilt. He was only trying to protect her. and then she gets r@ped and this happens.

I ship Lola hard with Francis. I get Lola but at the same time I know she cares more for Francis. She feels as if she's already betrayed mary so she doesn't wanna do it again but Conde is Francis's cousin. I mean look what Mary is doing!!! Lola isn't even family.

Kenna is a selfish ladder climber. I want her out of bash's life! She doesn't deserve him. It's disgusting. I'm over her using people and sleeping with royals to get ahead. I liked her and Bash at first but now I hate her. She's do superficial and conceited.

[Somerhaldered]

I don't know how I feel about everything that's going down on Reign. I can't believe Mary still wanted to be with Conde after she found out about Queen Elizabeth and that she asked him to stick with her anyways. It just all seems very stupid and dangerous for both of them. I think it also looks bad on a queen that she would do this to her husband. She can't even stick by her husband, how is she going to be a good queen? Now they are hinting at Francis' death - although I don't think it will happen right away, it does look like we might get that by the end of the season. I just feel bad for Francis in this whole situation. 

Poor Bash! That came out of nowhere. I love Bash, still trying to protect Kenna and not to be stupid with her future choices. His attack really caught me by surprise, I'm glad he didn't die. So now, will Francis' death be a result of his pact of wanting to live or due to something because of Mary, as predicted by Nostradamus? It'll be interesting to see how that unfolds. 

Things will probably turn bad for Grier and Leif when she finds out that he went around asking everyone for her annulment to Castleroy - not only did she tell him not to, but Francis wouldn't grant it either and he still kept pushing. Bad Leif! 

Forgive my spelling on some of these names, I was too lazy to look them up, lol.

[Sweetluv4DE]

I'm with you! It's just going so far away from the original idea of the show. I can't believe she slept with Condae. That was not only a slap in the face to Fary fans but a slap to Mash fans. Like if she's not with Francis she should be with Bash right? So annoying!!!! Is anyone even shipping Condae and Mary?

Poor Bash!!!! Is Kenna crazy? She's just not the one for him. I didn't like their pairing but it started to grow on me now I'm back to how I first felt. I hope he annuals the marriage and they both move on. I don't see Bash and Mary anytime soon because of Francis.

But didn't Mary's vision have an heir or two involved in the vision before he dies??? I don't know the history but did Francis and Mary conceive and heir before his death??? I actually feel sorry for Francis. Since becoming king he grew on me. He's still not my cup of tea but I really love him and Lola together. They are kind and really think of one another.

Ya I think Leef or Leph or Lief or Leif (hahaha) is in trouble with Greer. I hope they fix that though because I ship them hard! He's always been my favorite for her!

I have no idea where they will take this damn show but I hope they don't screw up a finale. We have a long break until the next episode.

[Somerhaldered]

These ladies in this show are just doing what they want aren't they? How did Kenna and Bash go downhill so quickly? Not only that, she's got another suitor! Didn't waste any time. 

More power to Greer for wanting to continue her business and make her own living, but I'm not sure why Leif didn't pick up on the fact that she never once said OK to the annulment from Castleroy. Then she suggested investing the money in the brothel - clearly she is not thinking she wants to annul her marriage but I'm not sure why.

I'm really just over Mary and Condae. She keeps treating Francis like he's the snake of all snakes (like he's King Henry or something) when he has done nothing but accommodate her and try to shelter her feelings. Looks like she's finally come around and trying to get past everything, but it may be too little too late.

The last 2 episodes were very relationship heavy, and it seems like everyone is breaking up!

[Sweetluv4DE]

I don't even know why I continue to watch this show either. I love Bash and he is literally getting bashed around by women and story telling. I hate his story lines. I feel like they just threw his character out and what they did with Kenna and him pissed me off. How dare Kenna. Trollop!

I did like the Bash and Mary scene. I liked how he brought up what she did to him. He had to watch them consummate their marriage for goodness sake! But I did like their little moment and hug. It made me remember how wonderful they were with one another.

I hate Condae and the story line. I don't care can he just go away? I thought he was handsome at first and now i cant stand the sound of his voice. Mary is an idiot! I wish that Lola and Francis had a fling going on while Mary did this!!! Francis wanted it but lola (Ugh)

I feel bad for Francis. I mean if it was going to be another man shouldn't it have been Bash? The man she claimed to love last season? How infuriating!

Greer is just confusing me. She is driving me nuts too. A madame? Really?

This show...... I want The 100 to come back.

[iansfan]

Sorry I haven't been around much but yes, I agree with all of what is being said. Conde? So not into him, surprised at Mary for even considering him. She can't stand Francis touching her but Conde can. BS! I was a Bash fan from the start but Mary and Francis grew on me. Hate that Kenna is such a gold digger. She had the world at her fingertips and she blew it!
I'm not even watching in real-time anymore and catch up online when I can. This show has lost all direction.

[Somerhaldered]

So did anyone watch yet this week??? I just watched it last night and I have to say it was really good! I did not expect Mary to do that to Condé and his army in the first few minutes. It was a good plan and she got back on my good side a little after giving up this stupid fling with him. So much happened and now that I'm writing, I can't remember, lol. So Bash is now linked to the witch - no!!! Why would she do that?? Well actually I know why, cause now she'll be protected - they won't have her killed if she's linked to him.

Kenna, Kenna, Kenna, what a greedy b*tch! The second Renode was out of the picture again she ran back to Bash - and as if that wasn't bad enough, she was trying trick him!!! Ugh! Poor Bash, he can't win at love. Can we pair him with someone who loves him and won't treat him badly? He's such a good guy!! Then she was talking to the young king - she was completely uninterested until she found out he was royalty. Ugh with that girl.

I was happy that Mary and Francis finally reconnected because I just felt so bad for him with all of the things that were going on. I can't believe Catherine made him believe his son was dead - just unbelievable! And he is dying....I wonder how long they will drag it out, if he'll last the entire next season or if it will be the mid-season finale. Just when I was ready to give up on this show and the ridiculousness that was going on, they've managed to reel me back in, lol.

[Somerhaldered]

Anyone watching Reign? Looks like they are moving into the battle between the Queens this season.

[iansfan]

Still watching but not in realtime. I need to catch up.
