Review: ‘The Royals’ on E! is hardly a crowning achievement
Aiming for the sweet spot of camp, E!’s first scripted series, “The Royals,” lands in the larger and far less valuable ring of cynicism.
And cynicism is never pretty, not even when it’s Elizabeth Hurley poured into a sequin gown to play an Ivanka Trumped-up version of Princess Diana.
Which may sound absolutely fabulous but absolutely is not.
Camp requires courage, and “The Royals” has none.
Created by “One Tree Hill’s” Mark Schwahn, it is so dependent on popular tween-age trends, from the Kardashians to “Twilight,” it seems genetically engineered.
Hurley plays Queen Helena as a “Real Housewives of Windsor.” Impeccably groomed with the vocabulary of a social media troll, she spends most of her non-primping time criticizing her children’s sex lives, telling her husband (the actual monarch) to man up, and reminding everyone within a 10-mile radius Who the Hell She Is.
Fun drinking game: Take a shot every time someone says “the Queen of England,” double when it’s Helena, because that’s the only way you’re going to
