I enjoyed the show, but I'm still aghast at Ben's dismissiveness of Downton Abbey.

It’s so well written. Are you watching the Gilded Age?

I haven't seen that. I just finished Bridgerton, and I'm anxiously awaiting the next season. I'll add The Gilded Age to my watch list.

I watched only the first season of Bridgerton, which I really liked. Does it hold up throughout the series? Gilded Age is a fun new era for Julian Fellowes to take on. I tried the Empress… but it hasn’t captured me yet.

Oh, I LOVE Bridgerton. It focuses on different characters in the second and third seasons, but no less appealing.

It's delightful to have all these suggestions. I haven't watched any of these shows! Finding new stuff to watch was the whole point of starting this weekly discussion.

In my real life, the only person I talk to regularly is the local dog walker. He and I go out and rage. He's got a pet wolf who is sweet on my shelter lab :)

I am in awe… I have always wanted to meet someone with a pet wolf… and if that person rose to ‘ranting buddy’ status. Pinnacle.

Ha! Well, meeting someone with a pet wolf is a rare experience.

Not every show is for everyone, but I love the diversity, drama, and of course, romance in Bridgerton.
