30 Shows Like Game of Thrones That Will Make You Want to Bend the Knee

Mary, Queen of Scots is probably most famous for how she died, but in Reign, we're treated to a (heavily dramatized) version of her life as a young woman. The Scottish princess is sent to France to marry the heir to the throne, where she finds unexpected love, a circle of loyal friends, and a dangerous court full of ambitious nobles willing to do anything or betray anyone to gain more power. As Mary grows into her role as queen and carves out her own power base, her inheritance in Scotland awaits as well, leading her closer and closer to the destiny that history has waiting for her.
