OK, I am watching Bridgerton season 3. I like the show because it shows what a progressive view of Regency England could look like with inclusion, body positivity, and equality. I like this take on alternate history because it makes you think a little.

Women have a heavy influence in this world of patriarchy but still have to live within the patriarchal rules where they need a man and his money. But if you ask me, they do just fine on their own.

This season it’s Penelope and Colin who take front and center. This is a character-driven show and I like that. There are lots of stories going on and I think that’s what makes it fun and interesting. This season will be in two parts which is not a bad way to do TV.
