QueenCharlotte Review: Strong, Heartfelt Bridgerton Prequel Needed More Romance
As one of Netflix’s most popular series, it was only a matter of time before Bridgerton got a spinoff. Created by Shonda Rhimes, Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story changes gears, turning its attention toward the titular character and her love story with King George III. The series jumps between two time periods, balancing multiple storylines. The historical fantasy series sets up a lovely central romance, and gives focus to Lady Danbury’s story, among several others.
What Queen Charlotte lacks in romance it more than makes up for in dramatic fervor. The story unfolds with aplomb, ready to take us on a whirlwind journey with high stakes. Much of the tension is personal, though, with King George’s mother, Princess Augusta acting as the middle person between Charlotte and George’s affairs and parliament’s impatient insistence that the king perform his duties as they see fit.
One of the most intriguing aspects of the series is Lady Danbury’s story, namely as it pertains to her married life, status, and journey towards independence and self-worth. Both the younger and older versions of the character get some meaty material to work with and Arséma Thomas and Adjoa Andoh deliver.
