Power is everything, there are no limits, and trust is nonexistent for the royal family featured in this drama series. Queen Helena and King Simon try to present an aura of class and grace to the public, but the truth of the family's life is much different, as tainted politics and family issues threaten to cause chaos and turmoil for the royals. The monarchs' rebellious daughter, Princess Eleanor, provides lots of fodder for the tabloids with a life full of activities that include sex, drugs, and even hung-over helicopter rides. Her twin brother, Prince Liam, is a playboy who takes full advantage of being one of the planet's most eligible bachelors. It's a life Liam enjoys until his older brother -- and heir to the throne -- dies, making Liam next in line to inherit the throne. With that distinction comes much scrutiny, putting a crimp in his womanizing ways. After Simon's death, paternity questions about Liam lead to Simon's brother, Cyrus, ascending to the throne.

If you're looking for subtle, poignant drama, The Royals isn't for you - but if you're into pretty people doing very bad things, E!'s scripted show definitely doesn't disappoint. Go to Full Review

The Royals doesn't ascend very high on the rung of cable dramas. But to its credit, the show isn't entirely predictable, and even at its most ridiculous, it's almost never boring. Go to Full Review

The second season of The Royals kicked off in a quieter fashion than I was expecting, but I think the action will quickly ramp up over the course of the season. Go to Full Review

10/08/2018 This season of The Royals was amazing. The cast is incredible! See more 11/02/2016 Love the show! It's sexy, suspenseful and entertaining. It's also a very interesting topic. Highly recommend it!!! See more 02/21/2016 Something like this is great if you want something that is fun without any seriousness. It is funny, completely outrageous and unbelivble in most places. As long as you don't take it too seriously, then you have the perfect TV show to distract your self from anything you probably should be doing. Overall, this is one of the funniest shows out there today. See more 01/10/2016 A bit too pretentious ... See more 12/27/2015 This season is much better than season 1! The mystery and drama is cranked up! I would have never guessed that this season would turn this show into one of my favorites. See more 12/27/2015 As usual, the second season slowed down in its storytelling. I was hoping for many episodic cliff hangers but the story telling was much slower. I lost interest after about 5 or 6 episodes since they weren't getting anywhere other than telling a story about 'what if' the Kardashians were in the palace because that's how they are behaving.
