Bridgerton is an American streaming television period drama series created by Chris Van Dusen and produced by Shonda Rhimes.
It debuted on Netflix on December 25, 2020. Reviews of the eight-episode first season were positive.
The Emmy-nominated drama from Shonda Rhimes is based on Julia Quinn’s bestselling romance series and it’s well-recognized for scandalous romances, decadent costumes and frothy regency fun.
Season 2 is narrated by 85-year-old Dame Julie Andrews (Mary Poppins) who utters the immortal line, “It has been said that of all bitches dead or alive, a scribbling woman is most canine.”
While the first season focussed on eldest Bridgerton daughter Daphne (Phoebe Dynevor), season 2 shines the light on older brother Anthony (Jonathan Bailey) and his search for a bride.
Bridgerton season 2 is exclusive to streaming giant Netflix.
