    Does Phoebe Dynevor ever....

    Shut up? Non ending, boring speeches. One after the other. It is nothing but soft-core porn with a terrible story line. How many times do we have to watch her get laid? Woke me when it's over!!!!!

    A disappointing ending to a disappointing series. 2/10 do not recommend.

    Really, we headed this?

    I guess the writers ran out of things to say, do i guess it was time to sex it up. Just tired of shows going down this path. Done with it, because it will only get worse.

    Fantastic, exciting, aesthetically pleasing, modern twist

    I love the development of their ruse and relationship. The heat and passion so real and raw. Eloise's reflection of modern feminism. The twist on race and class. It is one of the best series i've seen!!

    • Goofs
      In an early scene in the Bridgertons' drawing room, Hyacinth jumps up from playing cards with her brother on the line "I shall begin practicing straight away!" and exits the room. The camera turns to a conversation between Eloise and Benedict, following which Hyacinth is shown back playing cards again, seeming not to have left.
    • Quotes

      Daphne Bridgerton: I know why you made that vow to your father. I found the letters you wrote to him as a child, and I read them.

      Simon Basset: Daphne...

      Daphne Bridgerton: Just because something is not perfect... does not make it any less worthy of love. Your father made you believe otherwise. He made you believe that you needed to be without fault in order to be loved, but he was wrong. Should you need any proof of the matter, then... Then look just here. I am tired of pretending. And I cannot continue acting as if I... As if I do not love you. Because I do. l love all of you. Even the parts that you believe are too dark and too shameful. Every scar. Every flaw. Every imperfection. I love you. You may think you are too damaged and too broken to ever allow yourself to be happy, but you can choose differently, Simon. You can choose to love me as much as I love you. That should not be up to anyone else. That cannot be up to anyone else. It can only be up to you.
