Mostly Analytical, Quintessentially Overdramatic
NETFLIX © 2020 Simon Basset. Duke of Hastings. Everyone and their mother’s latest obsession—rightfully so as Regé-Jean Page’s enticing performances have made him one of the most memorable characters of the year. Bridgerton characters are all so flushed out, so extraordinarily balanced and complex that they are an absolute delight to analyze. Simon Basset is... Continue Reading →
On this week's episode of Lady Geeks' Society Podcast, we sit down to discuss Bridgerton's sixth episode "Swish." As we both agree, while there are some great moments, it is without a doubt our least favorite and features a moment we really wish it didn't. We discuss the Bridgerton family's big news and the honeymoon... Continue Reading →
NETFLIX © 2020 Daphne Bridgerton isn’t a character I planned to write this for, but after the TV show’s premiere, it only seemed fitting that I take her arc apart, too. And it’s a rather simple one really, which is perhaps why I struggled for a bit—I like Daphne, but I had a hard time... Continue Reading →
On this week's episode of Lady Geeks' Society Podcast through a myriad of technical difficulties we cover all things Bridgerton's "The Duke and I" which translates to all things Simon and Daphne's wedding.

NETFLIX © 2020 If not for Netflix's Bridgerton adaptation, people who had only read the first part of the story—the first of Julia Quinn’s Bridgerton series of books, The Duke and I—you would probably be wondering who Penelope Featherington is. As an extremely peripheral character in the first novel, her presence is noted along with... Continue Reading →
NETFLIX © 2020 Well, gentle readers—we’ve reached the end of the season. (Are we going to be doing this for eight years? Hopefully!) In its season finale “After the Rain” Bridgerton excelled at tying up loose ends and setting up the next season in an incredibly joyous little bow. This is type of content we... Continue Reading →
On this week's episode of Lady Geeks' Society Podcast, we discuss all things Bridgerton's "An Affair of Honor," which might actually be the favorite episode for both of us. We discuss the duel. We discuss society at the time, all the romance and tension, and most importantly every single incredible performance that made this episode... Continue Reading →
NETFLIX © 2020 What we say versus what we believe can sometimes differ and that is certainly the case in Bridgerton’s incredible penultimate episode.
