I don’t care what the books say: the whole “I can’t marry because I need to stick it to my dead father” plot line is stupid.

I live the books and I am glad they are staying close to them. I hope they have a 2nd one. They only character that I think is off is Colin.

They should have cast a hot actor for the prince and gone with a Twilight or Vampire Diaries love triangle. The Duke is smoking hot.

You can tell it’s Julie Andreas’ voice.

It reminds of Drive Me Crazy.

I wish they would have cast a better Daphne. She’s too plain.

I love seeing Nicola from Derry Girls!

I’m enjoying it but I like many period pieces.

I am watching! After I saw the trailer I read the first book; it seems like the show is incorporating things from later books, which is great. I could pick other romances I'd rather see adapted, but maybe they had enough going on without a complicated plot. I love the cast, set, and music.

Love the diversity of the cast, too!

I read that Julian Fellows (Downton, Belgravia) defends only casting white people. This shows that a diverse cast in a period piece works!

Read the books and I love this interpretation. Especially the color blind casting.

Anyone watching?

It’s like an early 1800s Gossip Girl and a bit like Reign in that the soundtrack is contemporary music played symphony style.

But the best part is the diverse cast with several black leads played in a colorblind world.
