I don’t know about you but I had a great time watching season one of E!’s hit series The Royals. While it is a mostly fun and very entertaining campy look at a fictitious British royal family, it also has a romantic element, as well as a serious undertone. Everything necessary for a hit series, with a stellar cast to boot.

I am happy to report The Royals has been renewed for a second season and began production today in London.
