‘BRIDGERTON’ PUTS ITS CHIEF GOSSIP ON TRIAL

In its third season, the Shondaland series favors the old-timers over its
trademark debutantes.

Review by Lili Loofbourow

The new season of “Bridgerton,” that steamy Shondaland remix of rom-com and
romance tropes set in Regency-era London, focuses less on debuts than glow-ups.

Forget the stunning ingénues upon whose inexperienced backs the series built its
brand. This is a season about second chances; about makeovers and resurrections
and fresh hopes, especially for those whom the denizens of the gossipy “ton”
regard as having few prospects (or none at all). Even Lady Violet (Ruth
Gemmell), the Bridgerton materfamilias, has a suitor. And this time the show’s
wily narrator, Lady Whistledown (voiced by Julie Andrews) — or rather her
conflicted creator, Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) — is in the hot
seat.
