Sunday afternoon
new home on Sunday, March 11,
on ABC.
Royal behavior: Stately behav-
ior this is not. With the upcoming
marriage of American actress
Meghan Markle ("Suits") to Prince
Harry, interest in the British Royal
Family is high, and it couldn't be a
better time for a new season of
"The Royals," premiering Sunday,
March 11, on E!.
The comedy/drama stars Eliza-
beth Hurley ("Austin Powers: Inter-
national Man of Mystery," 1997)
as the fictional royal family's matri-
arch, who struggles to keep her
clan together as they work through
typical — and plenty of not-so-
typical — family drama. Of course,
the fact that they're one of the
most famous families in the world
makes it tricky keeping all of that
family drama, well, in the family.
William Moseley ("The Chron-
icles of Narnia: The Lion, the
Witch and the Wardrobe," 2005)
and Alexandra Park ("The Ele-
phant Princess") star as her he-
donistic twin children Liam and
Eleanor, while Max Brown ("The
Tudors") returns as Robert, her
eldest son who was presumed
dead but miraculously appeared
last season to claim the throne.
That dramatic throne-seizing
closed out last season with a bang,
and it seems that this season will
deal with the fallout within the
family. The stakes really couldn't be
higher than when family drama
mixes with royal intrigues, but
that's exactly what's set to happen
when "The Royals" returns for a
fourth season on Sunday, March
11, on E!.
Legally departing: There's
good news and there's bad news
for fans of "Suits," USA Net-
work's hit legal drama. The good
news is that it's been renewed
for an eighth season; the bad
news is that that season will be
missing a few of the show's
longtime stars.
The seventh season is currently
underway, with a special two-hour
finale scheduled to air Wednesday,
April 25, but once that wraps up,
both Meghan Markle ("Horrible
Bosses," 2011), who plays parale-
gal-turned-lawyer Rachel Zane,
and Patrick J. Adams ("Luck"), who
plays fraudulent attorney Mike
Ross, will be saying their goodbyes.
It seems that they'll be going
out on a high note. In that season
finale, Mike and Rachel, who've
had a tumultuous relationship
since the very beginning of the se-
ries, are finally getting married.
To help fill the hole in the credits,
this season's newcomer Dulé Hill
("The West Wing") will be promot-
ed to series regular, while stars Ga-
briel Macht ("The Spirit," 2008),
Rick Hoffman ("Hostel," 2005) and
Sarah Rafferty ("Samantha
Who?") are all set to return.
"Suits" continues to be a ratings
powerhouse for USA, but only time
will tell if its viewership remains
loyal with two of its stars gone.
