5 Ways Reign Is Just Like Game of Thrones

Mary resembles another TV queen who is readying herself for ruling: Daenerys Targaryen. Both strong young women have been used as currency by others until the present moment, when they are both starting to be in full possession of themselves and their power. It's also interesting to note that both women have married a man of power; in Daenerys's case, her husband has died, while that's exactly Nostradamus's vision for Mary's new husband, Francis.

Joffrey is one of the most evil kings on TV, but Reign's Henry is starting to up the crazy ante. He first discovers a liking for killing his partners during sexy time, and recently he's been going full-blown bananas. He's not as bad as Joffrey yet, but really, who is?

Game of Thrones' White Walkers are terrifying and add another dimension to the story, right when you think it's just about a battle for power. Same with Reign; most of the time it's a melodrama about the love lives of Mary and her friends, but recently "the Darkness" has become a bigger threat. And let's not forget that Clarissa seemed like a ghost when she was first introduced.

No, literally, sexy bastards. Game of Thrones doesn't have the market cornered on the brave, strong, and really, really ridiculously good-looking illegitimate son. Reign's Bash is just as cute as Jon Snow, and with as many feelings.
