Bridgerton (2020– )

The adventures of the Bridgerton Family in the time of King George's Madness.

A series from the Shondaland family that bears the imprint of Shonda Rhimes. A period series, but one which promotes diversity without taking historical accuracy into account (largely because it is irrelevant in a work of fiction like this one) and one which is not ashamed to go beyond the Austenian dialogue (that's an exaggeration, the dialogue is not that good), resulting in a mixture that resembles Grey's Anatomy (minus the medical stuff), Gossip Girl and Pride and Prejudice at the same time. Inciting but superficial, Bridgerton is an easy and pleasant watch that should neither be judged too harshly or praised too much.
