[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Bridgerton Season 3 Part 1.] If you’re a Bridgerton fan, you’ve more than likely seen Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin’s (Luke Newton) now-iconic carriage scene, set to the instrumental tune of Pitbull‘s “Give Me Everything,” at least once (or maybe a couple dozen times). And while fans have enjoyed the iteration delivered in the series, showrunner Jess Brownell notes there are big changes compared to the scene fans read in Julia Quinn’s book Romancing Mister Bridgerton. “There’s this carriage moment in the book, [and] it’s the moment that Colin realizes Penelope’s Lady Whistledown and they share an intimate moment,” Brownell notes. “For us, it felt too early in the season for Colin to realize she was Whistledown.” Netflix Still, Brownell and the creative team didn’t want to discard the moment or concept. “We wanted to honor the fact that it’s the first time...

Although Bridgerton is primarily a romance, there is a certain amount of intrigue, thanks to Lady Whistledown and her society pages. Her words can either ruin a person or make them the most popular person in a day, and the Bridgerton family has felt that effect many times over the past two seasons.
This season, Lady Whistledown had a lot to say about Colin Bridgerton in particular. And although we all know she had her own personal motives for doing so, many viewers had to agree.
Colin's new look and the whole persona he took on while traveling was nothing but a farce. And a very ridiculous one at that. But there was a deeper meaning to it.

There is nothing that Bridgerton book fans are happier about than the accuracy of certain scenes or lines. Any show that is adapted from a novel or novel series, as Bridgerton is, has to change some things and add others to make the story exciting for the screen, but the closer it is to the source material, the less backlash the team will face.
Unfortunately, Bridgerton fans have already had a tragic experience with Julia Quinn's original story, which was so scandalized that the show became ethically questionable. The second season and the love triangle between the two sisters was only saved by the chemistry between Jonathan Bailey and Simone Ashley.
But from the looks of things, this may not be the last time the show decides to break the canon rules.

This One Change in Bridgerton Season 3 Makes Penelope's Storyline Better - Main Image
Bridgerton Season 3 Part 1 finally dropped last week; if you're a fan of the books, you might have noticed a big difference in Penelope's storyline in the Netflix Series. This season, adapted from Julia Quinn’s beloved series, focuses on the fourth book, Romancing Mr. Bridgerton.

Major Story Arc Removed in Bridgerton Season 3
The third season of Bridgerton, featuring Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton as co-leads, finally grants Lady Whistledown herself, Penelope Featherington, a chance at love.

Even though Bridgerton season 3 hasn't been released yet, fans are already excited to find out who will be the next lead of the show. With filming rumored to begin on June 10, the public will likely find out the details either right before or right after the premiere of part 2. However, many have already made up their minds.
Since the order of Julia Quinn's novels on which the show is based suggested Benedict Bridgerton as the third sibling, but Shondaland and Netflix decided to skip him, many fans believe that the next season must be his. If not, the studio will face a huge backlash. But if it is, season 3 is off to a rocky start.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Bridgerton Season 3 Part 1.] Bridgerton‘s universe continued to expand in Part 1 of the show’s long-anticipated third season as the Ton introduced Lord Marcus Anderson (Daniel Francis) and John Stirling (Victor Alli), the latter a character plucked from the pages of Julia Quinn’s novels. Meanwhile, Marcus is a show creation, introduced as Lady Danbury’s (Adjoa Andoh) younger brother. But he’s more than merely a sibling as sparks fly between him and Lady Danbury’s bestie Violet Bridgerton (Ruth Gemmell). “Both aspects, being a brother and being a lover at the same time, it’s wonderful,” Francis gushes. “But I think for me, with Marcus, it’s such a genuine desire to experience true love. He hasn’t had that.” Liam Daniel/Netflix Marcus told Violet of his first marriage, noting that while he and his wife cared for each other, it wasn’t a love match, whereas...

Spoiler Alert! This post contains details from Season 3, Part 1 of Netflix’s Bridgerton.
Bridgerton fans were more than ready to see Penelope and Colin’s love story unfold in Season 3 of the Netflix series, but little did they know that Polin wouldn’t be the only courtship in the Bridgerton household this season.
Audiences were surely surprised by the introduction of John Stirling, Earl of Kilmartin (Victor Alli) in Episode 3 as a love interest for Francesca (Hannah Dodd). Book readers will know John from the sixth novel in Julia Quinn’s series, When He Was Wicked.
In the novel, John serves a pivotal role in Francesca’s ultimate journey, to put it one way. No spoilers here, but there are below.

When a TV show is based on a book, the writers are bound by the story and the expectations of the fans. However, there are times when it is absolutely impossible to keep the original story alive, so the show begins to change some bits and pieces to better fit the narrative.
While this can be done well, these changes are always dreaded by the original fans. However, the third season of Bridgerton so far shows that the writers can learn from their mistakes and change only the most necessary parts. Here are 5 things they still had to redo, and 5 that were perfectly similar to Julia Quinn's book Romancing Mr. Bridgerton.

Netflix has released the first half of Bridgerton season 3, a new chapter of the series about how young aristocrats find love. The new season broke the order of Julia Quinn's original novels – instead of the story of Benedict Bridgerton, we explore the relationship between Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington.
Fans Want to See The Love Story of Violet & Edmund
The show spends a lot of time on the young characters and much less on the older ones. Lady Violet Bridgerton mainly helps her children and gives them advice to get settled in life. But sometimes we are shown echoes of her love story with Viscount Edmund Bridgerton, who tragically died at the age of 39 from an allergic reaction to a bee sting.
Lady Bridgerton's rare comments about her late husband are so touching and bittersweet that fans now want to see the love story of the Bridgerton parents as a separate season.

The first part of the third season of Bridgerton has been released on Netflix, and yet another wedding season is full of trouble for this family. Violet Bridgerton is still hoping someone can charm Eloise – after last year's scandal, the girl is struggling to join the company of potential brides.
And this time, the Bridgertons are introducing a new debutante – the reserved and humble Francesca.
Season 3 Puts Francesca in the Spotlight
A girl who is passionate about music has a hard time communicating with gentlemen. But history shows that you can find a soul mate even if you don't like to talk. This is another interesting plot device – Francesca has been in the background for the last two seasons.
However, as soon as John Stirling, Francesca's apparent love interest, appeared on the screen, all fan discussions were filled with comments sympathetic to this character, hinting at some kind of tragedy.

As you’ll probably know, Bridgerton is one of Netflix’s most popular series. The erotic period drama has captured the attention and imagination of many fans around the world, proving once more that sex – indeed – does sell! The series is based on the eponymous novel series by Julia Quinn, with the first season premiering on December 25, 2020. The series is currently in its third season, whose first part was released only recently, and in it, the series has continued to push boundaries like it did in previous seasons. In Season 3, Irish actress Nicola Coughlan has become one of the leads and this has caused a lot of controversy.
Namely, the former Derry Girls star has been criticized because of her appearance, and many thought that Bridgerton had gone too far with making her the female lead in Season 3, especially in light of the large number of erotic scenes in the series.

The rumors are true, gentle reader: Two luckyfans are getting the Bridgerton-inspiredwedding of their dreams.
The happy news was revealed in February 2024 ahead of the Regency romance’s upcoming third season, which premiered on May 16. Executive producer Shonda Rhimes, Season 3 showrunner Jess Brownell, author Julia Quinn, and cast members — including this season’s romantic leads Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton — were all gathered for the soiree. And now, we can reveal who the lucky pair is: Tiffany and Shanti, a couple from Brooklyn, New York, who reflect Season 3’s friends-to-lovers storyline.
“It feels great for everyone to know and to see us as a true love match,” Tiffany tells Tudum. Her spouse, Shanti, agreed, saying, “[After] everything that we’ve been through as a couple, we’re still here, going strong, and rooting for each other. We’re supporting each other, and we’re not taking anything for granted.”

One of the best things about Bridgerton is that the show rarely repeats itself. Just as Julia Quinn's book series, on which the show is based, explored a different love story in each novel, the show does the same with its seasons. Starting with Daphne Bridgeton, moving on to Anthony, and then Colin, it also introduces viewers to different romance tropes.
While the novel format allowed the story to revolve around one couple and follow them every moment, the TV show has to include the ensemble to expand the world and make the story feel as realistic as possible. However, it wasn't until season 3 that the show found the perfect balance between the main characters and all the subplots.
Is Bridgerton Season 3 Good?
So far, viewers have only seen the first 4 episodes of the third season of Bridgerton, but the majority of viewers were very pleased with what they saw.

The moment that Eloise Bridgerton loudly and publicly declared she “would rather die” than join Cressida Cowper’s mean girl gang was one to relish.
In the Bridgerton season two opener, Eloise’s stock as a debutante had risen temporarily high after Queen Charlotte took an unexpected shine to her. Cressida, sensing an opportunity for reflected glory, swept in to recruit Eloise to her clique, not missing the chance to insult El’s dear friend Penelope Featherington on the way. In no uncertain terms, Eloise stood up for her friend, turned down the offer and marched away hand-in-hand with Pen. Hooray for brainy, bookish girls everywhere! Boo to nasty, shallow Queen Bees!
Then what should happen in the season three opener, but Eloise be seen hanging off Cressida Cowper’s arm on a promenade? After the big bust-up with Pen at the end of last season,...

Dearest readers: It’s Bridgerton Week at IndieWire. We’re celebrating the new season by diving deep on one of the best romance shows on TV.
When “Bridgerton” first premiered on Netflix at the end of 2020, one could argue it was received with fascination above all. Though executive producer Shonda Rhimes had already built up a brand with elements that viewers would expect from every TV show that bears her name, this collaboration with creator Chris Van Dusen was taking a lot of big swings in its attempt to adapt Julia Quinn’s beloved romance series.
There was the diverse casting, the idea that it was taking the romance TV genre to the most mainstream platform it has ever had, and that it was a costume drama with a noticeable budget at that, but one innovative piece of its success that goes underwritten is the inclusion of an anachronistic score.

Although Bridgerton focuses primarily on the stories of the 8 siblings of the titular family, it is an ensemble show, and it puts the spotlight on some of the most interesting characters in the ton. Love her or hate her, Cressida Cowper has been lurking in the shadows long enough to finally step into the light.
And as it turns out, her journey isn't as easy as viewers might have imagined. Struggling to find a husband for the third season in a row, Cressida becomes a tragic example of a woman crushed by the expectations of Regency society.
Who Will Cressida Marry in Bridgerton?
While Cressida Cowper remains a villain and a bully in Julia Quinn's novels, the show decided to play with her character a bit more and plant some seeds for what seems to be a redemption arc coming her way. While no upbringing can excuse belittling and...

[This story contains major spoilers from Bridgerton season three, Part 1.]
Dearest gentle readers, Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) finally get together at the end of Bridgerton season three, Part 1.
The couple, often regarded as one of the favorites in Julia Quinn’s novel series that serves as the basis of the Netflix hit show, have spent their whole lives in love with each other — even if one of them didn’t realize it until now. And their relationship seems to be in the best place ever when the first four episodes end. But, for how long?
In the final moments of Part 1 (the season has a two-part release), Colin admits he has feelings for Penelope. And after the very steamy carriage scene (a favorite from the book), they’re on track to be married, with the Bridgerton sibling asking his bride-to-be, “Penelope Featherington, are you going to marry me or not?”

Dearest readers: It’s Bridgerton Week at IndieWire. We’re celebrating the new season by diving deep on one of the best romance shows on TV.
Three seasons into “Bridgerton,” fans of the Regency drama are used to the sweeping romances filled with everything hot and heavy — banter, drama, and above all else sex. Every season has had its “diamond”—Daphne (Phoebe Dynevor) in Season 1, Edwina (Charithra Chandran) in Season 2, Francesca (Hannah Dodd) in Season 3. While Francesca might be of diamond status in the courting process of the season, her brother Colin’s (Luke Newton) long-anticipated romance with Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) might more closely follow the beats of what the “Bridgerton” audience has become accustomed to.
Francesca’s road to romance remains something unlike what viewers have seen before on “Bridgerton” precisely because of her lack of interest in anything romantic or playing the typical heroine. When we first meet Francesca,...

Based on Julia Quinn’s Romancing Mister Bridgerton Season 3 of Netflix and Shondaland’s Bridgerton watches the friends-to-lovers romance between Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) and Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) bloom. While their book comes fourth in the series after Benedict’s love story, the show has moved their installment up in the order of Bridgerton sibling romances. Francesca’s (Hannah Dodd) love story also intertwines more significantly in the expanded two-part season, with Part 1 releasing May 16 on Netflix and Part 2 June 13.
Ahead of Season 3 Part 1’s launch, showrunner Jess Brownell, producer Shonda Rhimes and author Julia Quinn confirmed that an important scene in which Colin cuts his hand would feature in the show. This scene first sparks Colin’s more-than-platonic consideration of Penelope as she bandages his hand. She had been sneaking a look at his diary and reading his writing about his travels, and he gets angry with her,...

This article contains spoilers for Bridgerton season 3 part 1 and Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story.
Last year, the six-episode limited series Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story introduced fans to the beginnings of the world of Bridgerton. Shonda Rhimes combined historical details of Queen Charlotte and King George III’s early years of marriage with scenes featuring Violet, Lady Danbury, and the succession crisis set between seasons 2 and 3.
Den of Geek interviewed Bridgerton showrunner and executive producer Jess Brownell to find out the plans for tying in Queen Charlotte’s backstory into the main Bridgerton series.
Bridgerton season 3 is based primarily on Julia Quinn’s original novel Romancing Mister Bridgerton which centers Colin and Penelope’s storyline.

Bridgerton‘s third season has hit the Ton, and the final moments of the Part 1 release will have fans of the book and show alike on the edge of their seats, awaiting what comes next in Part 2.
Four episodes (and two seasons) of romantic buildup on the Netflix period drama between Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) culminates in the famous carriage scene from Julia Quinn’s novel Romancing Mr. Bridgerton (of which this season is based), where the two engage in a steamy makeout scene and make it to second base.
Before they know it, the carriage arrives at the Bridgerton family house, and they need a moment to figure out what to do. Colin steps out of the carriage and extends his hand toward Penelope. “Are you coming with me?” he asks. “What? Your family will see me,” she responds. “For God’s sake, Penelope Featherington.

How do the makers of Bridgerton keep a fandom as dedicated as theirs guessing? How does the Netflix show surprise a core of fans who are so intimately familiar with Julia Quinn’s source books that they’re anticipating every blush and ball before it even gets to the screen?
One solution, as has happened in season three, is to play with the established order of things. Though Benedict Bridgerton’s romance follows on from that of his brother Anthony’s in Quinn’s book series, the TV show has (rightly!) vaulted over that to first show the love story between Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington.
Their other answer? Invention. In addition to TV-only characters Madame Delacroix, Will and Alice Mondrich and Queen Charlotte herself, a new raft of invented-for-the-show characters appear in season three. Here they all are, along with info on the actors playing them, plus a couple...

Falling for a TV show is not exactly like falling for a romantic relationship. But it’s not unlike it, either. There’s the initial flirtation, when you sample an episode or two to see how it strikes you. If all goes well, there’s the moment of commitment, when you decide to stick around to see the story play out. Then there’s the long haul: With each successive season, the series has the opportunity to deepen and mature — or to stagnate.
With its third outing (fourth if you count the spinoff Queen Charlotte), Netflix’s Bridgerton is no longer in the early days of its courtship with us, and unfortunately, it’s starting to show. While the latest chapter faithfully delivers on everything we’ve come to expect from this world — virginal heroine, rakish hero, high-society scandal, instrumental pop covers — it’s also the first in which the...

Dog toys and roving Regency-era balls. Small-artisan hand-etched mirrors and allergy medicine. “Bridgerton” has become so much more than a TV show. Heading into Season 3 of Shonda Rhimes’ massively popular period romance series, Netflix has found that viewers aren’t just invested in the love story of new leading couple Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) and Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) — they want to invest in the brand itself.
That means a fandom spending its dollars on a growing merch and events business that helps them celebrate each new season of the show, which is based on Julia Quinn’s romance novels. Equally important, it tides them over between installments (which take quite some time to produce).
Netflix and Rhimes’ Shondaland began building their “Bridgerton” business after the show launched as an almost immediate smash in December 2020. The first step was the fan event “The Queen’s Ball: A Bridgerton Experience,” which...

The season is upon us! Footmen in London’s greatest houses are buffing the silverware and arranging exotic fruit in ludicrous displays. Armies of cooks are carving likenesses of Queen Charlotte out of syllabub. Debutantes are being tonged, powdered and fragranced, ready to stand by the side of the ballroom like gorgeous hothouse flowers waiting to be plucked by an eligible lord. And orchestras are tuning up their violins to incongruously pump out Miley Cyrus tunes to get the Ton leaping. In short: it’s new Bridgerton time.

Now, “Bridgerton” could be added to list as the latest season sees romance blossom between Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) as they finally make it out of the friend zone.
“The more I speak to people, the more I’m starting to realize how a lot of people have experienced it in one way or another, even my loved ones.

Dear Readers,
As the cast of Bridgerton celebrated the premiere of Season 3 at Alice Tully Hall, star Nicola Coughlan revealed what it was like for her to film intimate scenes with co-star Luke Newton.
The Netflix series Bridgerton, adapted from Historical Romance Novel author Julia Quinn’s books, has become a cultural phenomenon dominating drawing room conversations with each season’s premiere since 2020.

From one Mr. Bridgerton to another: Luke Newton opened up about how he took inspiration from former Bridgerton leading man, Jonathan Bailey, before taking on one of the main roles in the hit Netflix series’ third season.
Newton and Bailey joined co-stars Nicola Coughlan, Claudia Jessie, Simone Ashley, Ruth Gemmell, Adjoa Andoh and more of the the show’s cast and crew on the blue carpet in New York City on Monday to celebrate the world premiere of Bridgerton season three.
While speaking with The Hollywood Reporter at the premiere, Newton — who portrays Colin Bridgerton, one of the main love interests this season — revealed that he began tuning into Bailey’s approach to Anthony Bridgerton last season.

The characters in Bridgertonhave been beloved since author Julia Quinn began publishing the series in 2000. But there’s one heroine in particular who has been lauded by many a book reader: Miss Kate Sheffield, or, in the second season of the Netflix hit, Miss Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley).
Introduced in the second book in the series, The Viscount Who Loved Me, Kate is the protective older half-sister of one of the social season’s latest gems, Edwina (Charithra Chandran), and one-third of the close-knit Sheffield family. Kate’s mother died when she was young, so she was raised by her father and stepmother, Mary (Shelley Conn). Kate is single-mindedly focused on making sure her younger sister is happy, but the elder sister soon catches the attention of one Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey), who can’t get her off of his mind. And neither, it seems, can fans of the...

Fans have been looking forward to Shondaland bringing more of Julia Quinn’s Bridgerton books to life on-screen. But we’d argue that few scenes are as anticipated as the Bridgerton family playing a brutally competitive game of pall mall. Season 2, inspired by Quinn’s second novel, The Viscount Who Loved Me, follows the story of eldest Bridgerton brother Anthony (Jonathan Bailey) as he seeks a wife. That brings him into the orbit of the social season’s latest diamond, Edwina Sharma (Charithra Chandran), her protective older sister, Kate (Simone Ashley), and her mother, Lady Mary (Shelley Conn).
The fan-favorite scene arrives in the third episode of the season, as the Bridgerton family retreats to their country estate, Aubrey Hall, to host their annual ball. Before the full crowd of London socialites follows them out of the city, the younger Sharma women join the eldest Bridgerton siblings, including Anthony, Benedict...

Grey's Anatomy, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, Private Practice. Is there a showrunner with a higher number of long-running successful shows than Shonda Rhimes? Hardly so. That's why her 2017 deal with Netflix came as such a shock, after spending more than a decade under ABC's wing.
As fans know, Shonda's Netflix project, Bridgerton, is based on a series of pseudo-historical romance novels by Julia Quinn that tell the story of early 19th-century British high society. There are a total of eight books about the Bridgerton family, the first of which was published in 2000.
All feature the romantic liaisons of Lady Bridgerton's children, and there are (surprise!) eight of them: Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Gregory, and Hyacinth. Shonda Rhimes would not be Shonda Rhimes if she did not create interest in all aspects of her brainchild – now, with the long-awaited third season of Colin and Penelope just a few days away,...
