Bridgerton

 


First of all I love Bridgerton, I think everyone does. There is something about the time period, with the right hint of drama and scandal that makes this show irresistible. I loved the first season with Daphne and Simon and I wasn’t sure if the second season would measure up but of course a Bridgerton would never disappoint. Season two was potentially more dramatic than season one and I’m not even sure how they did it. Bridgerton is making this era popular and is bringing back tea parties. My Husband wasn’t too keen on watching this with me because he said it looked boring but after a few minutes he was hooked as well (he cracks me up). 


Anthony is back determined to take a bride, but for duty and nothing else. Love isn’t in the cards for him as far as he is concerned. He plans to wait for the Queen to name her diamond and that will be his bride because any woman in their right mind would jump at the chance to marry the Viscount. 


The Sharma’s came to Mayfair for the season in hopes of finding the youngest daughter Edwina a husband. This doesn’t seem like a difficult task since the queen named her the seasons diamond. She becomes the desire of all the men including the Viscount. However, this is a matter of the heart and she won’t settle for less than she deserves.


Kate is determined to find her sister a husband who will love and support her and the Viscount is definitely not the one but Edwina seems to have her eyes set on him. While Kate and Anthony bicker about the future between him and Edwina they discover an attraction between themselves that cannot be denied and a potential scandal that must be avoided for both of their families sakes.


I really enjoyed this season. I loved finding out more about Anthony and what made him the man he is. You get to find out more about his past and one of the biggest tragic events that occurred to the Bridgerton family, the death of their father. You get to see lots of mentions of Edmund and how he was as a father and how is absence affected everyone. It was bittersweet and I think probably the most insightful thing in the season. 


Daphne’s presence was always a plus but I wished we got to see more of her and even had some appearances made by Simon. Colins wasn’t really my cup of tea in this season. I felt as if he hadn’t really grown up and learned to stop chasing things that were pointless, a child still wishing for things that the adult in him knows he can’t have and then missing the beautiful things right in front of him. Benedict was the same funny carefree spirit. Eloise definitely had more of a presence in Daphne’s absence and I loved her story as it progressed through the season. I can’t wait to see her love story in the future because whoever courts and marries Eloise Bridgerton better have a back and a mind of steel. I do think she can be overly dramatic but I suppose one of the siblings must be. As for Edwina Sharma she truly has a heart filled with kindness to be able to forgive her sister and accept the Bridgerton family after the wrong doings done to her, I hope she gets the fairytale ending she deserves. 


This show is honestly a masterpiece and I am pretty sure that Netflix created the double thumbs up just for Bridgerton.


Rating: 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and Double Thumbs Up 👍 👍 .
