On December 31, Netflix will remove Gossip Girl from its archive: you only have a few weeks left to enjoy yet another rewatch and then let go, at least for a while, the intricate events of the Upper East Side. I know, you already feel the lack of gossip, scandals and love stories that last a couple of episodes, but rest assured because from December 25, also on Netflix, Bridgerton, the new series produced by Shonda Rhymes, will be available.
Selling the trailer more than a few dynamics seems familiar to us and not surprisingly therecritics have already called it a middle ground between Gossip Girl and Downton Abbey. In fact, in the background to the events of the protagonists, there is not New York but the London of the nineteenth century and the aristocratic families of the time, especially that of the Bridgertons. Indeed, the eldest daughter, Daphne, like every debutante, is looking for a husband and will have to select one of all the rich children who court her.
But, of course, nothing is as simple as it seems: the mysterious is to complicate things Lady Whistledown who, with her worldly chronicles, spice up all relationships by revealing unspeakable secrets and other events that it would be better not to make public. Yes, that’s right, practically a Gossip girl without internet or cell phones so to show us that, despite the fact that there are half centuries of difference, after all certain stories always repeat themselves. Other examples? Daphe, to avoid Lady Whisteldown’s attention, invents a fake engagement with Simon Basset, the most desired bachelor of all, but then discovers she’s in love with him and will strive to transform the relationship into something more real. Basically, the basis on which the best love stories in cinema and TV series were born.
A good dose of healthy romanticism, then, with some surprise twists here and there. There are all the elements of a perfect series for binge watching: I already plan to finish it in a few days and then inevitably find myself asking myself “but why is it already over?”.
Its creator Chris Van Dusen stated that the best way to describe Bridgerton is to say that it is «a romantic and daring love story, but also sensual, fun and exciting“. Ok, ok, we figured out what to do during these Christmas holidays.
