Bridgerton Ranked: The Diamond of Seasons
26 Feb
Summary
- The series reimagines Regency London with racial equality.
- Each season focuses on a different Bridgerton sibling's love story.
- The show balances its anthology format with ensemble cast needs.

The 'Bridgerton' series, adapted from Julia Quinn's novels, presents a unique fantasy of Regency London where racial equality is a reality. Each season functions as a distinct anthology, spotlighting a different Bridgerton sibling and their romantic journey within the vibrant marriage mart.
The show's appeal lies in its formulaic yet engaging romance, always featuring a rake and a distinct female lead. Despite its successes, 'Bridgerton' grapples with effectively utilizing its supporting sibling characters when they are not the season's focus. This leads to inconsistent subplots that challenge the series' anthology structure.
Furthermore, the show's integration of fantasy and historical reality is sometimes uneven. While admirable for its inclusion of actors of color, 'Bridgerton' inconsistently addresses race. Despite these challenges, the series' unabashed horniness and promise of a happy ending contribute to its phenomenon status. With half of its anticipated eight seasons now aired, a ranking of all five existing installments, including the 'Queen Charlotte' spinoff, has been compiled.
