The Bridgerton Series Details
Sometimes a series comes when we need it the most. After this devastating year, full of hardships, lockdowns, deaths, climbs, de-escalations, and an uncertain Christmas, ‘The Bridgertons’, the delicious period drama that has just landed on Netflix, was needed more than ever. It is a great series that exudes sense and sensitivity, wit, humor, malice, sex, sensuality, and a universe of magical characters, especially female, involved in the most brazen, addictive, and anachronistic soap operas of 18th century English high society.
How The Bridgerton become the most loved Christmas Series?
‘The Bridgertons’ is the first work of the prestigious screenwriter and ‘showrunner’ Shonda Rhimes for Netflix, after her famous signing three years ago. After successful fictions such as ‘Grey’s Anatomy’, ‘Scandal’ or ‘How to defend a murderer’, he returns in style, adapting the first of eight novels of the same title by American writer Julia Quinn. The stars or the millions on the table have conspired so that the talents of one and the other are based on a series that promises to make a lot of noise, although surely there will also be, as always, who is not satisfied with the adaptation of the famous saga.
Marriage marketing
‘The Bridgertons’ describes with good irony the marriage marketing that surrounded Regency London in the early eighteenth century. It tells how the wealthy families of the place have only two worries: one, to find a rich husband for their daughters; and, two, not to get hurt in one of the scathing social chronicles, signed under a pseudonym by a certain Lady Whistledown – to whom Julie Andrews lends her voice – and that everyone reads. No one knows his identity, which is not revealed, until the last episode.
In the midst of this scenario, Dafne, the oldest deserving daughter of the Bridgertons, a wealthy large family of nine siblings and their widowed mother, refuses to marry out of convenience and not out of love, until she crosses her path. the handsome Duke Simon Hastings. The torrid love and sex story that soon arises between the two is not free of stormy difficulties and obstacles to get ahead. Around them are woven other powerful independent stories, but interconnected with the main one, which only enriches the series, something very frequent in all of Shonda Rhimes’s works.
This soap opera lacks nothing
In addition to that cheesy romanticism of the time, which the series deals so well with, ‘The Bridgertons’ is full of anachronisms and scandalous experiences, as funny as not very typical of that time: the queen and part of her court are black; men play such violent, modern-day sports as boxing; the ladies, behind their husbands’ backs, smoke and drink everything, and there are even those who opt for peculiar sexual practices. Anything goes and nothing squeaks in that luxurious, colorful, and fogless London, given over to pleasure and perversion. This soap opera does not lack anything.
The Bridgerton Season 2 Recap & Season 1 Reviews
The chemistry between the leading couple, Simon Basset ( Regé-Jean Page ) and Daphne Bridgerton ( Phoebe Dynevor ), is palpable in each of the sequences they share, but especially in bed. The abundant and fiery high-voltage scenes between the couple, more than justified by script, are absolutely essential to understand the story.
‘Los Brigderton’ would not be the same without such carnal sex, exquisitely accompanied by perfect music and beautiful shots in the most heavenly places. The series also takes maximum care of its imposing locations, those majestic palaces that hide impressive halls, where the best dances take place, those in which the young women of high birth, perfectly dressed, do not take a wrong step while looking for her wealthy husband. Everything about Shonda Rhimes’ new is pretty, delicate, stylish, and fun.

LIAM DANIEL/NETFLIX © 2020In the Shonda Rhimes series, there is also time for a feminist critique of the objectification of women. He denounces with irony the marketing suffered by all those young women, whom their sullen mothers, eager to hunt fortunes, put up for sale to the highest bidder. The important and priority was to ‘sign’ succulent marriage contracts, in which love and money were too often highly at odds. And beyond those iron walls of the sumptuous palaces and luxurious mansions, ‘The Bridgertons’ also gives voice to another reality, that of many women alone and without ‘class’, or husband, who made their living how they could or how they knew.
All, one and the other, suffered from the prevailing machismo at the time. And it is that, unfortunately, for many of those respectable gentlemen in that life of the eighteenth century either you were a courtesan or you were a whore.
