Do you know Bridgerton yet? If not, you should definitely watch it! This series on Netflix is mega popular and that is not without reason. In the meantime, season 3 is already online. We are going to tell you why everyone is so enthusiastic about this series.
This is why Bridgerton is so popular on Netflix
1. Looks a bit like Gossip Girl
You probably know the series Gossip Girl. This was a mega popular series on Netflix with actors and actresses Blake Lively, Penn Badgley, Chase Crawford and Leighton Meester. A secret Gossip Girl who spread all the gossip. Bridgerton uses a similar concept. Only in this series the name is Lady Whistledown and she is voiced by Julie Andrews. You know the one from Mary Poppins.
2. Costume drama
Gossip Girl is set in New York and in the 21st century. Bridgerton, on the other hand, is set in London at the beginning of the 19th century. But don’t be afraid that you will only encounter historical costumes, because the makers have given it a twist. For example, dresses with bright colors have been used.
3. Mix of humor and drama
The series is a costume drama. This means that the film was set in a different time period. There is a mix of humor and drama in the series. There are moments when you can laugh out loud and enough light-hearted moments that make you forget these bizarre times. There are plenty of scenes where tears will flow, but also violence and exciting moments.
4. Talented cast
Julie Andrews voices Lady Whistledown, but the rest of the Bridgerton cast consists of more talented actors and actresses. The lead roles of Duke Simon Basset and Daphne Bridgerton are played by Regé-Jean Page and Phoebe Dynevor. Jonathan Baily and Nicola Coughlan are also participating in the series. We could go on and on. In any case, don’t be surprised if you have multiple ‘Hey, I know that one’ moments.
5. Sex and more sex
Yes, there is plenty of sex in Bridgerton. Netflix could have chosen to go for a mild version, but they have chosen to show everything. Intimate scenes with a message. The series is based on the even book series by Julia Quinn and there is also a fair amount of activity between the sheets.
Are you going to watch Bridgerton from now on?
