The thing that I love about Bridgerton is that it's not meant to be "good" or "critically acclaimed" it's a fun, trope-y mess and it just scratches an itch in your brain
I could not disagree more. After having watched so many things that attempt to do what Bridgerton does extremely badly, I have to say that it IS good and there is a reason why critics also tend to enjoy it. It’s broadly well-paced and well-written. Many of the characters are given depth and the ability to evolve. There’s plenty of humour with a some actual emotional weight to keep it engaging. The zingers are impeccably written and delivered by everyone from Eloise to Lady Danbury to the Queen. The costuming and production design is intricate and committed to more of a feeling than a time or place. Oh, and the acting from the whole cast is amazing. I’m not sure what else a “good” show is supposed to be. Even the majority of Shakepeare’s plays were a mish-mash of rewritten tropes. To me, it’s just as valid to expertly and novelly execute something old as it is to create something new. And, perhaps quite fittingly, Bridgerton is nothing if not, something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue,
I forgot that Anthony's *introduction* is literally him... in the park. Knowing where his character goes, it's no wonder a different season is my favourite.
Absolutely. I would even say that Queen Charlotte is an excellent introduction to the world of Bridgerton even with the flashes forward because it's so separate from the main story
oh if s1 already got u hooked, this season does NOT even hold a candle to the masterclass execution of the enemies to lovers trope that is kate & anthony in season 2 😆
27:33 "a little slowburn action" A LITTLE SLOWBURN ACTION???? BABES PLEASE, you have NOT seen slowburn until you've agonised yourself through season 2 oh my DAYS was that the slowest of burns 😌😌😭😭🤩🤩
@@justmarlen you haven’t seen slow burn until you watch Gilmore girls and wait for 4 seasons for the first kiss between the main two love interests lol
You probably won't see this, but make sure you first watch season 1, then season 2, then the Queen Charlotte spin-off, and then season 3. It's the BEST and ONLY way❤
little fun fact about the casting the guy that plays the prince is the same guy that plays the college radio station worker in pitch perfect the guy with the abs
“What do you think? Do we wanna continue this journey?“ she says as if she wasn‘t HOOKED on it already. As soon as she cut the camera she watched episode 5.
@@Charsy8 unfortunately i think they are a troll because of their profile and previous comments :/ just a sad little person who has nothing better to do than message on Bridgerton reactions💀
Wait until you get to the Queen Charlotte season. That’s what I’m really waiting for. I will happily sacrifice going through that roller coaster again. I will never be able to not cry at “that scene”.
I just finished watching Queen Charlotte and it has such a similar yet distinctly different feel that I love. I'm glad that it was able to touch on queer themes and themes of racism.
not only that - but the 8th and last book in the main series came out a year before Gossip girl series, so.. technically Gossip Girl is contemporary AU of Bridgerton :P
also the gossip girl books and bridgerton books were coming out at the same time. i think the first bridgerton one came out like a year or two before the first gossip girl one
That laughing-snort and the duke’s reaction SOLD ME when I saw it in the trailers, I was like I GOTTA WATCH THIS! And the rest is history. I’m obsessed.
Don’t worry about “being the last person to watch the show”, I also recently started watching it but the show has me hooked and I can’t wait for season 3 part 2 to come out :)
4:12 trust me, wearing short stays (what was worn during this fashion era) or bras similar to them under sweats…. looks SO GOOD. Seriously, way better than a regular push-up or t-shirt bra. And they’re really comfy (when the correct size, bad sizing is always uncomfy for any garment lol), they do wonders for your silhouette 😉
WATCH SEASON 2 PLSS!!!!! it literally has the best enemies to lovers arc i have ever seen in a piece of fiction. it is EVERYTHING you could hope for and more ahhhh
Unrelated to the reaction, but as a Palestinian person when I heard you mention being part of the creator fund i teared up lol... wasn't expecting that and it genuinely made me happy
The king is King George III (the King of England during the American Revolution). The show takes place about 2-3 decades after the Revolution (lol idk math), around this time, George has almost completely lost his mind. I’m not sure if it’s during this time or afterwards that he’s known as Mad King George.
omg ash i knew i loved you already but being part of the creators for palestine made me love you even more 🫶 great vid and thank you so much for supporting such a worthy cause 😘
i’m sooo glad fable is getting the recognition it deserves 🙏🏼🙏🏼 i’ve been using her for my friends and i’s book clubs. it’s soooo easy to talk about books chapter by chapter and im so glad they added tv shows. ugh stan
You’re channels are so comforting whether it’s an album reaction, show/movie commentary, or just going to Halloween horror nights I always feel right at home🥰
queen thank you for this, we are here for the whole journey and I CANNOT WAIT FOR YOU TO (HOPEFULLY) GET TO SEASON 2 IT IS SOOOO GOOD, we must make haste and continue watching!! ❤
YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAY!! you have to keep going with bridgerton!! Especially queen charlotte that’s the best season of television i think i’ve ever watched.
Yeh, I love it, despite the problematic parts - yeh - that one - but I still love it, more than season two. And I’m prepared to die on this unpopular hill. 😂❤
I watched the first season a while ago and loved it! Started the second season, but got caught up in life and stuff and didn't finish it, and now there's a third! Seeing you react to this has rekindled my interest and original love of the show. Keep reacting!
girl i am SAT when i saw the notification pop up!! so now just gonna impatiently wait til you go thru the rest of the season, S2, Queen Charlotte and OFC S3 AAAHH

I really don't like it. But I love my partner, so I endure it.
Yeah bridgerton Is just okey the dialogue Is sometimes mid but Is also a lot of fun but yeah Is not a great show from a real point of view
fr the show is just a simple fun show, for a nice entertainment and it’s my great way to relax lol
@ville__everyone does
as julie andrews has stated: “a queen is never late, everyone else is simply early”.
Miles Morales also said something like that in Spider-Man, Into the Spiderverse.

@ville__ you and me, for example
Before 50k besties
Speed of light got nothing on me
“Queen Charlotte” is a side series about her love story. It’s definitely a MUST watch. The last episode will make you cry GUARANTEED!!!!!
Absolutely. I would even say that Queen Charlotte is an excellent introduction to the world of Bridgerton even with the flashes forward because it's so separate from the main story
PLEASE continue the bridgeton commentaries
100% I watched it for the first time last week and I'm literally *OBSESSED*
It’s better than all the Bridgeton series imo
I've watched it several times and it still makes me cry
oh if s1 already got u hooked, this season does NOT even hold a candle to the masterclass execution of the enemies to lovers trope that is kate & anthony in season 2 😆
YES
YES kanthony forever 💙💜
omg YES
This is so true!
@ville__you clearly do because this is the second comment I’ve seen you reply to??? help
I love that this went from "ugh I hope I'm not the only one who doesn't like it" to "STOP TEXTING ME I'M WATCHING BRIDGERTON"
27:33 "a little slowburn action" A LITTLE SLOWBURN ACTION???? BABES PLEASE, you have NOT seen slowburn until you've agonised yourself through season 2 oh my DAYS was that the slowest of burns 😌😌😭😭🤩🤩

@@justmarlen you haven’t seen slow burn until you watch Gilmore girls and wait for 4 seasons for the first kiss between the main two love interests lol
ash really saw ant and simon together once and said “they’ve explored each others bodies”

That’s how I plan to binge watch the show too lol

@@user-eh3jj1ni4c according to publishing info I could find - first gossip girl book came out around same year as the fourth bridgerton novel.
the “this is how this episode ends?!” shocked face got me CACKLING
That laughing-snort and the duke’s reaction SOLD ME when I saw it in the trailers, I was like I GOTTA WATCH THIS! And the rest is history. I’m obsessed.
I love how you noticed Daphne does look like Keira Knightley!
Especially in her piano scenes! She was giving Pride and Prejudice!
Ashley + Bridgerton = perfection 💫
The scream I let out when I got the notification! I’m so excited! You MUST watch Queen Charlotte right after s2, it’s SO good!
You are annoying
Nobody cares about you@ville__
Omg yesss
YES! Queen charlotte is better than s1 and 2 of bridgerton!! and those are already pretty damn good. i hope she does queen charlotte
@ville__ you do. You cared enough to comment
She's gonna bawl her eyes out. QC had me sobbing at my TV almost every episode.
The Nicholas Galitzine stan era is so real! I’ve also been watching everything he’s ever been in as of recently, glad I’m not the only one.
PLEASE do a series of this i BEG you. It just gets better and better with each season and let me just tell you, this show is for us GIRLIES
Fable really said we’re going to sponsor every creator making Bridgerton reactions and I love that
I almost wonder if it was a requirement because for what fable is bridgerton is the besttt show to promote it
oh i can’t wait for you to get to season 2! that’s the best one by far
With miss Sharma and her sister miss Shawarma?
@@MiArcangelracist
the way i VIOLENTLY jumped out of my bed when i saw the title😭😭 i love bridgerton tysm
tell me why ash has the perfect laugh for one of those "candid" raw audio outros from an early 2000s pop song
28:42 GOODDDBYEE THE WAY SHE INSISTED SIMON WAS A SCORPIO HAS ME TUMBLING😂😂
OMG WAIT YOU SHOULD ALSO WATCH QUEEN CHARLOTTE SPIN OFF SHOW TOO IT’S A MASTERPIECE
Here for the possibility of this 😌
The Featheringtons are my favorite bc they’re always up to some shenanigans.

I hope that you continue the series. Your reactions and edits were so fun to watch! The show just keeps getting better every season.
I know we're only on season one but PLEASE DO SEASON 2!!!! ITS SOO GOOD
After s1 please watch season 2,it is so good and you will definitly see Anthony in a different light and understand him better.
Don’t worry about “being the last person to watch the show”, I also recently started watching it but the show has me hooked and I can’t wait for season 3 part 2 to come out :)
you’re hooked with the show i’m hooked with those reactions, girlie pls don’t stop!!! we def want this series to continue

She's "mama" now
