Bridgerton Season 3 | Netflix Review | Part 1
Ойын-сауық
Check out my review of Part 1 of the new season 3 of Bridgerton!
From Shondaland and new showrunner, Jess Brownell, Bridgerton is back for its third season and finds Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) has finally given up on her long-held crush on Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) after hearing his disparaging words about her last season. She has, however,
decided it’s time to take a husband, preferably one who will provide her with enough independence to continue her double life as Lady Whistledown, far away from her mother and sisters. But lacking in confidence, Penelope’s attempts on the marriage mart fail spectacularly. Meanwhile, Colin has returned from his summer travels with a new look and a serious sense of swagger. But he’s disheartened to realize that Penelope, the one person who always appreciated him as he was, is giving him the cold shoulder. Eager to win back her friendship, Colin offers to mentor Penelope in the ways of confidence to help her find a husband this season. But when his lessons start working a little too well, Colin must grapple with whether his feelings for Penelope are truly just friendly. Complicating matters for Penelope
is her rift with Eloise (Claudia Jessie), who has found a new friend in a very unlikely place, while Penelope’s growing presence in the ton makes it all the more difficult to keep her Lady Whistledown alter ego a secret.

Francesca’s storyline was more romantic than Penelope and Colin’s in my opinion…
I like the friends to lovers storyline however I never found Colin to be that likable so it’s hard to root for Penelope to be with him because I feel she deserves better ….
Oh and even small parts of our queen is always appreciated! Her relationship with brimsley, her pouting, her style and hair, her relationship with lady danbury... i cant get enough of her!

Season 4 is Benedict. I suspect season 5 is Eloise. Benedict's wife apparently plays a role in story in the book too. Not to mention, each season is technically 1 year so far. We have to see bits and pieces of the two years Franchesa was married to her 1st husband in 4-5. Season 6 will be the rest of Franchesa's story. Then the last two in birth order. This is what makes sense to me. I really hope Netflix completes the series with 8 seasons

I think Francesca’s casting was great she really looked a lot like Daphne. But I a sister way not a twin. I am a big fan of the friends to lovers trope but I could have used like 2 more episodes before the midseason finale it felt a little quick but I think that happens with ensemble shows. A lot to cover never enough time.

Francesca's storyline being introduced in this season just like in the books
I love the class issues that can be addressed through the Will and Alice Mondrich storyline. And Francesca’s storyline is so fun, it’s giving neurodivergent vibes which I love as well. But it’s true there are a lot of story threads going on!
Do a review on the ultimatum South Africa please
I needed more Penelope and Colin in this season. It seems there was time to focus on them but it was wasted. Such a shame.
Didn't care to see more of Alice or Will Mondrich in this season. Skipped as much of them as possible. Maybe they should've had a different story line that lines up more with a key character if they were going to have more screen time.
I agree, I was not that invested in Colin and Penelope- I also was more into lady bridgerton and the brother from out of town storyline and Francesca too! She and John Stirling were so cute ❤
“Stop liking that stuff on the gram” 😂 good advice for whoever needs it! Looking forward to the second half - also love Francesca and am intrigued with what her deal is. And Lady Bridgerton.

You spoke my mind. I am so interested in Francesca storyline (well, I feel so related to Francesca as I'm an introvert myself and I'm quiet all the time), and I much prefer all the other storylines to the main one about Colin and Penelope. I'm similiar to you, more fond of enemy-to-lovers trope than friends-to-lovers
I wasn’t crazy about season two. My favorites in order are Queen Charlotte, Season 1, Season 3, Season 2. And I’m not happy with breaking up the season into two parts.

❤❤❤❤❤ I read the books before this season cuz I couldn't wait and it is very satisfying. They did a great job so far. But I've heard that a lot of the fans are kind of trying to wait till part two comes out cuz they want to watch it all together. It's going to mess up their ratings on Netflix.
I wish they had given it to us week by week. Because now I'm feening to know what happens in part 2 and I got to wait a whole month. I'm a pollen stand. I love them.
I got more emotionally caught up in Eloise and how she handles her friendships and brother relationship than any of the romance!
Literally more interested in all the other storylines as well lol and I want to know what they are doing with the boxer family. Penelope and Colin both irritating me
Oh my freaking golly Wally. I was screaming yes at the end and then I had to scream. No because it end.
Hi, this was an entertaining review. As a fan of the books, Yes you’re right, Romancing Mr Bridgerton (Colin’s book) and When He was Wicked (Francesca’s book) were definitely among my favorites. I’m loving seeing The beginning of Francesca’s story here. Loving Colin falling sooo hard, they have lifted some lines straight from the book. Which are fun nuggets to catch, and heartening after the way they butchered Anthony and Kate’s love story. Will need Pen and Colin to take centre stage in their own love story for the second half also.
Like your rundown a lot. Entertaining and honest… 15:44 I love the Rom Coms and I’ve been waaaiting for this season! I also love all the other storylines because it’s more for me to speculate about future seasons.
lol! I am actually keeping my Netflix subscription longer to see part two! I’ve also heard of some people who only start a subscription to watch a release like this and then immediately cancel it. I guess this annoying release method could get those people to pay for at least an extra month.
The whole time on episode 4 I'm just rooting like polin polin polin 😂😂😂
Benedict is my favorite too. I like the new Franny! I’m also not really invested in Polin.

Benedict’s book is my absolute favorite from the whole series by far! I’m eagerly looking forward to his season and I don’t think y’all have anything to worry about. And I don’t want to give any spoilers but Francesca’s season should definitely be further down the line. There’s a reason why they are setting her marriage up now.
I love that Kate had new hairstyles and dresses this season but honestly I miss season 2 Kate, the simple purple or turquoise dresses and the flowy skirts and the flowy hair with braids, soo beautiful! I also miss her wit, there wasn’t much wit this season from Kate, and for me I didn’t need to see Kanthony this season at all. I wish we saw more business scheming with Pen and Madame Delacroix, and Eloise walking in on their scheme talk in the modiste. Wow why do I dislike season 3 so much 😭
I know you from all the Love is Blind stuff, but you do Bridgerton too? Love it. ❤

Huh, my favorite storyline this season is Penelope and Colin, and I was shocked that they seemed to rush through it. Looking forward to seeing them develop more in the second half of the season, and hoping they do still focus on Polin since there are so many couples competing for screen time. To be honest I would have preferred if they waited to do Francesca's story--I feel like we never really even met her before, and they could have introduced the character and let us get more invested, but still focused on Polin, and given Francesca a romance next year. The Violet romance is a good choice for this season since they hinted at it during the spinoff.
Not even halfway through the review & you’ve got me singing “Me & Mrs. Jones”, CHRISTOPHER!!! 🤫
Who up in here singing? Great funny review as always, Thanks Tait! Oh did you see Book of Clarence?
OMGGGGG I FEEL THE SAME WAYYYY I’m not really invested in pen and Colin so the whole story line about the main characters its reallly meh for me and I am realllyyyy sorrryyyyy but I can’t help how I feellll 😫. I want to know more about Benedicts hoochie behaviour 😂 and if Kate is going to be pregnant and Francesca 😍😍😍. I am even interested in lady crowbar sorry crowper hihihihihi and Eloise’s friendship and if she’s going to find a husband and what Eloise is doing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 So literally everyone else interests me except POLIN pleaseee don’t hate me 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Ok so far my rating is. The number 1 QUEEEN CHARLOTTE we just need to bow down I loveddd ittt 2. The Duke and I season one it was just magical being introduced to the Bridgerton world for the first time and hmmmmm al those naughty sexy times hubba hubba 3. Season 2 With Kate and Anthony it was the tension and anticipation. 4. Then polin so far. I hope it picks up because it was a bit boring between them. 🫣😄 Okayyy I said what I saidd Tateeeeeee ❤ uuuuuuuuu
Exactly, why they always gotta do it in parts?
I don’t like how they split it in two. I think I liked season 2 a little more half way through. But I’ve liked it so far. As far as the books go, pollin’s book was good. Francesca’s is definitely one of the better ones. I really liked Benedict’s book too tho. I think they might of skipped it because it’s a Cinderella story, so it’s not a new story. I didn’t really like Eloise’s book tho 😂
"It's really a toxic trainer.. I'm sorry about that." Made me laugh too hard... It hurts.
The show being told in modern day slang is hilarious 😆
Fantastic spoiler free analysis ❤😊
Love this breakdown. Your replay of Season 2 with Anthony and Kate was awesome cool. My fav Bridgerton story is Benedict’s , offer from a gentleman. (I read the books). Can’t wait for that one to come out. I think after Benedict’s story my 2nd fav is Penelope’s. I love her character, the overlooked wallflower. I think Netflix splitting it up this time sucks. But we are hooked, right.
OK. I'm watching this, BUT what is the LIB/Ultimatum universe without Tait's Take? I just knew you had a video up already...
Thank you for this because I was going to skip this season because I don't like the Penelope/ Colin situation at all. But if the others have a good story I can fast forward through them. True.....no one is going to top The Duke ...he is the definition of steam. 😊

"this dude (colin) gave her so much rizz it backfired and started to work on him and backfired" STOP 😂😂😂😂
I agree. Maybe because I read the book but since they announced the 2 parts, I figured they would be setting up the second part to be the pay off. I knew they would leave us hanging like this. I will not lie, I expected more from Polin, but with all the press, part 2 has done good things coming. I also feel like they had to tie up the loose ends that we have due to the change up in novel order and the adding of Charlotte. There was just a lot of foundation that needed to be laid and worked out before they could really get back on track with the novels' storylines. My theory is that season 4 is Benedict, 5 is Francesca, 6 is Eloise and maybe there will be a 7 and 8 if not it'll be an epilogue type season where they just sort of combine the last 2 and tie it up in a happy-ever-after bow.

Great review! I love this series.
😂😂😂😂 the intro
I was so excited for this season, and then I watched episode 1 and didn’t feel the same rush of “omg what’s gonna happen next”. It was meh to me, all four episodes so far. I don’t know what it is about this season… there wasn’t enough Polin time for me to get invested and “ship” their love story, and the sex scenes (Kanthony and Colin’s brothel adventures) were just unnecessary and added nothing to the plot for me. The costumes were so different it didn’t feel like a natural transition from their previous season costumes. What is with all the puff sleeves on Cressida and the weird neck cross thing on Eloise? Phillipa is so suddenly tan this season, and we got no backstory for Prudence and her husband - where did he come from?? Did I miss something?? As for Polin… I don’t know, can’t put my finger on why they felt so off to me… I didn’t feel that passion between them as I did for Daphne and Simon or Kanthony or even Benedict’s flings. I honestly got excited about Lord Debling and wanted to shove Colin to the side. Like, it took a kiss under the moon for Colin to suddenly become interested in Pen as more than just a female friend? I didn’t buy it. I understand that a kiss can change things between friends but I didn’t work for me with Polin. Every time they were together, their scenes felt rushed, and there wasn’t enough screen time for me to truly believe them as a love couple. Francesca and Kilmartin were interesting and I’m more invested in her character and personality. Actress is gorgeous btw, very believable as Violet’s daughter. But they portrayed her as suddenly introverted than the previous actress in season 1 - I didn’t feel that sibling connection this season. But still got room to grow. I hope Polin don’t marry this season. The carriage scene was awkward for me to watch, and his sudden “will you marry me or not” proposal felt rushed and just weird… I need an entire season for their friendship to transition to love before they marry! And I don’t see that happening in part 2. And Violet needs some action, otherwise she will keep going to art museums and stare at nudes 😂 Lord Anderson …. Interesting and intriguing so far…

I agree with all of this! I have not read the books but it feels like they presented the Polin love story to be this AMAZING thing and so far I’m not convinced. I still don’t know why he is in love with her. Feels like there are a lot of missing pieces/background. I honestly believed them more compatible in past seasons when they were just friends than this season. I felt more chemistry with the other guy that was courting her that Colin tbh. Hopefully the last 4 episodes brings everything full circle. Also I feel like I like Francesca’s character but I’m a little lost as to what her story is. Like does she not want to be married or is it that she doesn’t want to have children? Her story just isn’t clear to me. I’m loving the other storylines so far, especially momma Brigerton and Lady Danbury’s brother, hoping to see more of that. So Ready for these last 4 episodes!

Yup same here! My hope for part 2 is that they bring Eloise and Pen back together; Cressida and Pen come to an understanding with each other enough to stop being enemies; Colin finds out about Pen being LW and learns to understand her in a deeper way than just lust or friendship; Eloise and Colin are ok with their roles in Pen’s lives; and that Colin and Pen express their feelings to each other. No marriage! I am hoping their wedding happens as a side plot or one-time event in season 4 while it focuses on Benedict or Francesca. But I also don’t want them married 😂 it’s like marrying your school crush rather than your man, your husband. I need them both to mature and be somewhat marriage material than just friend or casual sex material.
I didnt like this season. It was so predictable
This season felt waaaaay different and hearing now that there is a new showrunner it makes sense. The show feels so weird, rushed, and empty to me 😭 the side stories were better than the main one, and Pen had so much chemistry with the vegetarian man! They would have the perfect marriage for that time period and Pen’s work… I’m sad she has to be with Collin
