I am all caught up.

And I forgot the show that this thread is actually about.

It's still funny to watch people criticize or fell sorry for Greer and yet she is a successful business woman in an era when women were pretty much worthless.

I'm confused. The husband of Elizabeth I is considered a king, but the husband of Elizabeth II is a prince.

I knew I had never heard of Elizabeth being married, so even though this part of the story is probably fiction, what happened afterward would tend to explain it. And that was funny how they put a sword between them in bed so that THEY wouldn't do the deed.

I guess it's true. Mary and Francis are really no longer together.

Yes, but i believe the criticism stems from the fact that her main clients are prostitutes and not simply because she's a woman.

I want to say it depends on the man's title before marriage but i can't% say that with 100% certainty.

I find it really sad that Mary and Francis are no longer together... Considering all the buildup and everything i expected them to last longer.

[KyleEl]

And now I'm two episodes behind. I started to watch the older one but I didn't even finish everything I had planned by bedtime.

I assume I have two copies of each one.

[KyleEl]

Oh, and that doesn't even count the ones I didn't watch last Fall.

I am assuming I won't have to dispose of shows I already recorded to do setup again on my TiVo. After all, there are videos on both of them that I didn't put there, and I did the setup after I got each one.

I have until August 11, which is explained on The Vent Thread.

[KyleEl]

Still no time.

[KyleEl]

Now I'm three episodes behind, with no chance in the foreseeable future. I'm not even sure it was taped on the machine I've had longer because I noticed there were two "Big Bang" episodes in addition to the normal one. But without "Backstrom" I should be fine, and it must be I just didn't notice.

[Kimba116]

Yeah, i'm thinking that i have about 3 or 4 episodes to watch.

[Kimba116]

Reign is going to be moved to the dreaded Friday night spot next season. I hope that it has enough fans to follow the move.

[KyleEl]

I'm surprised it made it to another season. The ratings have been pretty bad.

I lost two episodes from one machine but I was keeping them only as a precaution. The other machine still has them. The near-disaster is expalined under "Scandal".

I saw one episode over the weekend. Claude was so funny bossing around that man who wants to marry Greer. I couldn't believe he expected to be able to support Greer when she has a business and he's a lowly servant. Even in that unenlightened era, I really thought she was going to keep the business after marrying him.

Things don't look good for France or for Francis or Mary but at least we got to see Claude in bed. Seeing Catherine in bed was something I could have done without.

I can't believe there's still snow on the ground. I suppose that's because of when they filmed. I didn't think that part of Europe got all that cold, but I don't even know if they film in France.

[KyleEl]

Still two episodes left on each machine that I haven't seen.

[Kimba116]

I'm all caught up now... Without spoiling you, i will just say that i was shocked by what Mary did in the finale. I totally was not expecting that! It sucks that we have to wait about 4 months to find out what happens next.

[KyleEl]

I have seen one more episode.

Neither Kenna nor her husband is faithful, so they need a annulment or divorce. Being Catholic (sort of), they can't actually divorce but they're not really in a marriage.

So Claude's servant still wants to get married. She's behaving more reasonably, but last week if she didn't get whatever she wanted she was going to make his life miserable.

I'm lost as far as Mary and Francis are concerned. It seems like it will be bad if Conde marries Elizabeth (or is his name Louis?). I thought we were going to see Elizabeth but maybe that's next week.

EEElizabeth! That's okay, dear, that rug isn't expensive at all.

[Kimba116]

Kenna and Bash have talked about getting an annulment but haven't yet.

It is Louis, Conde is the one sleeping with Catherine. I feel the same way... All that lead up to Mary and Francis and it's like they just mean nothing to each other anymore. It's like they're more friends than husband and wife.

Is it me or does the actress that plays Claude look very similar to the one that plays Elizabeth?

[KyleEl]

Well, now I'm caught up. Except for the episodes from last Fall.

That was a surprising episode. All those lies Mary told, but at least the castle is safe. And she and Francis may actually be back together.

I thought Catherine was sleeping sith someone named Stefan. Oh, well.

And Elizabeth shows up as promised. But not for long.

It was nice seeing the girls together like they were back when the show began. I guess they've been together like that in recent years, but somehow that scene seemed unusual.

I'm very confused about the healer who is being treated like Joan of Arc. Oh, well, I won't have to worry about any of this until next season.

Looking at the rating in USA Today, I'm surprised this show is coming back.

[Kimba116]

It's been a while since i've seen the episode but i don't seem to remember all the girls together... It must not have been a very long scene.

I was shocked by how many lies Mary told. Especially the one where she claimed she was pregnant. There was no way that Francis could have been the father so i was glad that she wasn't. But the way she acted and how she was willing to betray everyone just shows how much she's grown up since we first saw her.

Which episodes haven't you seen?

[KyleEl]

I'm now down to one missing episode. I'm glad I didn't see this one right away. Mary was pregnant which surprised me because I didn't remember her being pregnant. And there's a good reason, which was all covered in the one episode.

Catherine walked in on them while they were naked and brought others with her., That was the funniest part of the episode.

And the reason that the girls haven't all been together much was revealed. Or was it? Mary tried to pretend she wasn't upset with Lola but she finally threw her out of the castle and said she wasn't one of her ladies any more. And then by episode's end they had made up.

[Kimba116]

I forgot which episode it was, but i liked the reason Catherine gave for choosing Lola as one of Mary's ladies... It was something along the lines of "You didn't throw stones at Mary like some of the other kids and you always just treated her like everyone else." Don't quote me on that entirely, but that's what i remember was said. For whatever reason, that quote just always stood out to me.

[Kimba116]

I watched the first two episodes of Reign (season 1) on Netflix the other day just because i could. It was nice seeing the first season again.

[KyleEl]

I'm sorry to say I have to go online for this past Friday's episode. First I forgot that every single series that hasn't aired an episode since I got my new TiVo has to have its own OnePass. That's like a Season Pass on the older machines. If I didn't tell the machine to record a series, it didn't. And so it didn't. My old one works, but since it will only tape one show at a time, it taped "Last Man Standing". Which the other one did anyway. I deleted my Season Pass on the older machine so this wouldn't happen again.

[Kimba116]

Let me know when you watch it.

I haven't seen the 2nd episode yet but i will eventually.

[KyleEl]

I forgot to come here.

I've seen just the first one. The second recorded and I should watch it tonight. If I go in order, this show will be first.

They thought Catherine had died, but that will never happen. That's about all I remember. And Charlie is just a little kid and he's marrying Elizabeth? I remember that much because one of my Facebook friends, who used to be a WB site poster, likes the show.

[KyleEl]

I haven't seen last week's, but I did see the one before that. Charlie is older than I remember. If I'm thinking of the right boy. Still, he's too young to marry anyone.

Elizabeth is so mean. I always thought she'd be nicer. And she looks like Uma Thurman.

[KyleEl]

I haven't seen last week's yet, but I'm planning to tomorrow night.

This is about where i left off.

He agreed to marry Mary but i get the impression that was just talk and he won't actually marry her when the time comes. I agree- Far too young to marry anyone.

Elizabeth in insecure... She uses her power as queen to tear down anyone standing in her way. The best outcome for that? Karma. She'll eventually get what's coming to her.

Is it safe for me to tell you anything? I have one question. Louis was mentioned but Mary kept calling him Conde.

If not, I'm caught up since there was no episode last week.

Catherine was put in the dungeon but banged her head so much they sent her to the infirmary. Later, she made sure everything would happen the way Francis and Mary wanted it to. I've forgotten the details but Conde was a prisoner and his brother was trying to save his life, and Francis wanted him to give up his claim to the crown. Mary has decided to marry someone in Spain and Charles is marrying someone else. He has a crush on this girl but they got high and she almost died. Claude managed to save her. And Claude's servant was in bed with another girl. Claude seemed disappointed but tried to hide it. Catherine is out because she'll rule France.

Francis is trying to hide his condition but it's hard. He reluctantly agreed to let Lola marry that man he thinks is wrong for her. Lola was naked in the bathtub and later in bed with him. I mention that because even with water in the bathtub, she had clothes on in an earlier episode.

[KyleEl]

Was there an episode? I haven't had time.

[KyleEl]

If there was, I haven't had time yet.

[KyleEl]

Okay, TiVo no. 2 recorded it. I'll watch when I get time.

I am referring to last week's. I assume this week's recorded on TiVo no. 1.

[KyleEl]

This is a low priority because it recorded on my oldest TiVo. I will have to make sure I delete some shows so I won't lose anything.

[KyleEl]

Still waiting, but they're all there.

[KyleEl]

Still waiting.
