[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will they address Benedict’s bisexuality?[/quote]

There’s a brief scene at the beginning of episode 4 that tells you he is indeed still bisexual.[/quote]

I wonder if he will share this with Sophie.[/quote]

Is this a storyline in the book?

Because in season 3, it felt like a pointless addition to the plot that added zero to the story or the character development.[/quote]

NP.  I read Benedict's book.  It was dull.  It's just a "Cinderella" rescue the mystery poor girl story.

My take on Benedict's sexuality is that it is simply extra wokeness/sexiness to jazz up the story.  It probably works for some.  And they've hinted heavily they're going to LGBT up the dull sister who found the quiet husband.

I have liked all the seasons and the Queen Charlotte prequel.  However, they have a bit too much depicted sex for me.  Like that scene where Anthony's bare butt is shown because he's banging his actress mistress in the park.  (Was that Anthony?)  I also don't like the subplot about the affair between Lady Danbury and grandpa Bridgerton.  Just unnecessary.  Too much spice.  The club-owning couple became popular characters so now we are going to have their romantic life on display too.[/quote]

This show is nothing without the sex.[/quote]

PP.  Disagree.  I like the cross-cultural casting and think the actors do a good job of selling this fantastical alternative England.  I think the costumes and jewelry are lovely. The music covers are amusing.  I enjoy Regency tropes and some of the story revisions are positive additions. I just don't need to see bare asses pumping away.  It's embarrassing when my kids are at home.[/quote]

This show is based on bodice-ripper romances. The sex is necessary.[/quote]

PP.  I've read almost all the books.  They are much tamer.  I like the show better because of the high cost production values and even the quirkier leads are attractive.  Again, it's when the show gets super randy that it seems out of place.  [/quote]

Agreed the books are more chaste. Also I think when romance is onscreen, it gets scandalous more quickly. There are certain things that are sexy to read but you'd rather imagine the visuals of than see in close up on your TV.

That said, there's really only a handful of episodes of Bridgerton that I think go overboard with this. They always do one or two sex scenes each season that I just think are way too over the top, and then some of the little asides (like Colin having a threesome) just seem dumb and unnecessary to me.

I think they do a very good job with the main romance usually, and really making you feel the attraction. I even thought they did a good job with this in Season 3, I just found Colin to drippy to be excited by.

The first half of this season is perfection in this respect.[/quote]
