Anyone else watching Bridgerton?

[GreySilk]

Apart from no-one wearing hats, I'm really enjoying this.

binged watched it yesterday - really enjoyed it. A little bit of escapism

There's a thread in Telly Addicts I think.
I'm saving it for when I have an empty house for an afternoon.

I must have a look. It's a great empty house watch.

Watching it now, on episode 3. Started yesterday evening as an antidote to the incredibly boring Midnight Sky.

Loving it so far!

Watched them all yesterday! Loved it!

I'm absolutely loving it, definitely lacking in hats though!

I adore it! It is so cosy and preposterous, just what we all need

It is cosy and preposterous

I like Eloise.

Bloody loving it! Halfway through. Hope they do more series with the other characters. Shonda is a TV genius.

just downloaded the first book to continue with the escapism

Binge watched yesterday and today, just what I needed.....thank you Netflix....

We are spacing out the watching, otherwise we’ll end up with nothing to watch. Thoroughly enjoying a bit of light relief!

Binged it all day yesterday and loved it!

Except the sex scenes got a little too much in the end, as in, keep showing them over and over and over again- we get it! We get whats happening here, we get why we might need to see a few, but FFS - AGAIN?!?!?!?!

I fast forwarded the last couple of sex scenes because I couldn't sit through any more (and im not a prude, it was just too much!)

Its light, daft, brilliantly fun entertainment. I loved it and wish I had saved some for today!

binged it all yesterday - definitely sub Jane Austen but perfectly fun and with all those siblings, lots of potential for future stories - I guessed the ID of Whistledown pretty early on though. As for the sex scenes - the Duke is HOT so that's fine by me

It’s a 21st c politically correct version of Gossip Girl mashed up with a Regency romance. Entertaining, but very fluffy.

TBH, I’d have been happier with an adaptation of the Audley series by Georgette Heyerdahl.

Heyer!

Loved it. Watched 7 yesterday and last one today. I love a good TV binge at the time, but then feel like I would have taken more in had I paced myself a bit if that makes sense.

This review is what will make me watch it 😂 I’ve been wholly unconvinced as a fan of ‘proper’ period drama. A lazy one for cluster feeding perhaps!

Watched two episodes today and thoroughly enjoying it.

I love the clothes, the colours all that clashing silk and flowers and gaudy jewels! Feel like my retinas are being burnt out in a good way

Just had a lovely afternoon with a post covid migraine and snuggly cats watching this. About half way through.

Oh totally agree with your Duke comment, he is beyond lusty

Yay, guessed Whistledown!

Slightly lost now I've finished it.

I loved it! Not as funny as the books and lots more sex but I've thoroughly enjoyed it. Julia Quinn was always my go to for escapism so thank you Netflix for making 2020 a bit less crappy.
