The first chunk of episodes in Bridgerton Season 3 are an ecstatic delight. Bridgerton might have a new showrunner in long-time writer Jess Brownell, but the world is still as enchanting and romantic as ever. .... This season is truly a showcase for new leading lady Nicola Coughlan. The Irish actress absolutely sparkles as wallflower-turned-heroine Penelope Featherington.

Three seasons in, “Bridgerton” remains silly and winky, sumptuous and fun — despite recycling many a pleasing formula, and even identical beats.

I love Penelope and Colin. I love friends to lovers. For how little Nicola and Luke were given to work with, their superb acting carried the season and it's easy to see why the season still is talked about as much as it is today!

By embracing the best moments of Quinn's novel Romancing Mister Bridgerton as well as adding new scenes that create deeper dimensions to the story, the series is in good hands with Jess Brownell taking over from this point on.

The whole of it isn't as in top form as the inaugural season, but Nicola Coughlan has firmly established Penelope as the show's best leading lady to date, and sets the pace for most all of its unique triumphs, as well as those to come.

With Coughlan centre stage, it’s diverting and glossy enough, but also rather samey and a bit blah – even with some last-minute libidinous romping in a carriage.

Bridgerton has lost its charm, at least in part because Newton lacks the charisma of his male-hero predecessors. The sex scenes don’t evoke the same thrill they once did—and maybe, looking back, that was more the thrill of something new, not Bridgerton actually being good at depicting sex.

Bridgerton seems to think that likeability involves the meticulous excision of all edge. For a show that marketed itself as Jane Austen with more bite, this third instalment could learn much from its forebears about how to really sink your teeth in.

A wonderful adaptation of the much beloved friends to lovers romance. Two seasons of character development pays off, and both Nicola Coughlin and Luke Newton are absolutely in their element and give sensitive beautiful performances. Their chemistry is amazing and this season glows up in every way possible and does not disappoint..

honestly, the first season was the best. Couldn't really remain invested in the show after that...
