daily king robert

Tbh I haven’t really looked for it, but I don’t think so? Genevieve Gaunt did give a shout to rillow on her instagram post about the show's cancellation (x), but as far as I know, that's it. But imo, the show is over, rillow is happily married and it doesn't matter what people say. 

The show has been cancelled, nonnie. Lionsgate, which co-produces the series, is said to be currently shopping the show to other outlets in hopes of finding a new home (x), but tbh, no news about that have been released as of now and I find it extremely unlikely.

I feel you. I really don't understand where she was coming from either, she should've been able, as an actress, to give a more unbiased opinion instead of just saying the same things as her character. I wonder if, while prepping for the season, at the table reads and what not, this sentiment was also voiced by the writers/directors/producers or if it's something she came up on her own? Idk, it's just so strange. Anyway, at least AP doesn't influence the direction of the show, so whatever she said, it's not the direction of the next season if there's one.

I don’t think it’s superficial, dear anon. It's something that bothered a lot of people, including me. I'm not exaggerating when I say that she seems like a completely different person from one season to the other. The hair changed, the clothes, the confidence she used to have, her ability to interact with people... They wanted to create this cinderella love story between Willow and Robert, to turn her into some "ordinary girl" who, by being "sweet and kind", conquered the devious king's heart. Which is...fine, for those who like that narrative. But in the process, they erased Willow, her personality and her history completely. Maybe we didn't know much about her before s04, but what we knew is completely different from what we got afterwards. And physically, she was turned into what the writers expected to be "the opposite of Kathryn" and that includes being ugly and boring whereas Kathryn is beautiful and sexy. No offense, but even her wedding dress is not very nice. But that's all my opinion, and I know it's not very popular. I preferred Willow during s02/03 and the only reason I cared at all for her during s04 is Robert. 

That's also true. If it had been more explicit to the audience that Robert was also physically interested in Willow, then there would be no surprise when he turned Cassandra down. 

That's also something to consider. 

No offense, but these are very lousy reasons. If n. 01 is true, it's completely unprofessional on Max's part. If it's n. 02, that just means they are really cheap. Though it's not impossible when it comes to Gen, since they have been cheap with everything else that concerns her. Still, I stand by my reasoning that it has been a decision made by the producers/directors. If they had said, "longer, deeper kisses", that's what we'd have gotten. Instead, they probably went for "soft, romantic" and that's what we got. 

On their defense, though, I just want to stress that they don't have that many love scenes? Actually, I think the only one which is indeed a love scene is when they are in bed and have that 0.2 seconds kiss - and they did fine on it, it wasn't passionless. Besides that, we have their first kiss - which is understandably tentative and hesitant, I don't judge first kisses -, then their kiss to the press and on the wedding, which are both in public? So it's normal that they weren't that passionate. 

It seems far-fetched to me, but sure, I guess it's possible. 

I'm very disappointed at Helena tbh. Hers and Robert's relationship has always been my favorite and I can't believe she would put his life in danger so carelessly, the same woman who said that she wouldn't be able to live if she lost him again, but I don't see how she could be by his side after the finale.

And, imo, he didn't have many serious girlfriends before Kathryn. Probably some proper girlfriends with the right pedigree? But I have a feeling nothing lasted too long and no one had been really important before Kay. Idk, it's just how he reacts to the whole Liam/Kathryn thing that makes me think no one had been as important as she was.  

I have no idea. I don't want her to die (yet) because she is pregnant, so maybe keep her kidnapped until she pops then dies of labor complications? lol About Lucius, I have two theories (a) Helena called him and he is working for her or (b) he is working to destroy the royal family. But it's really difficult to guess what they were planning when they shot these scenes and in what direction they would go now, in case there's another season.
