Calling all members of the ton! Is anyone else starting to feel like Lady Whistledown has abandoned us for good? The agonizing wait between seasons of Bridgerton has fans reaching for their smelling salts. At this rate, our beloved characters will be collecting their pensions before we get to see all eight Bridgerton siblings find love.
Two Years for Eight Episodes?! Patience Is Not a Virtue
Let's be honest, we all fell head over heels for Bridgerton back in 2020, devouring the first season in a single, glorious binge.
Back then, eight episodes seemed like a cruel tease, but we consoled ourselves with the hope that a new season would be just around the corner. Fast forward two years (yes, you read that right, TWO YEARS!), and season two finally graced our screens.
"I knew then we were in this for the long haul," laments one fan, echoing the sentiments of many. Two years is a long time to wait for a mere eight hours of content, especially when those episodes disappear faster than a plate of Lady Danbury's biscuits at a society ball.
Social media is ablaze with frustrated fans. "It's just laziness at this point," declares one TikTok user. Another adds, "I feel like I've wasted my time anticipating the new release for so long, only to watch it all in one sitting."
The Ghosts of TV Shows Past
Remember the good old days, when shows like "Friends" and "Grey's Anatomy" graced our screens weekly with a whopping 22 episodes per season? Those were the days!
"They literally have the source material to hand!" exclaimed one exasperated fan, referring to Julia Quinn's bestselling novels. And it's true! The writers have a roadmap for each season, so what's the hold-up?
Will Bridgerton Become a Period Piece… In Real Time?
The real fear is that the show's glacial pace will lead to its downfall. With five Bridgerton siblings still waiting for their happily-ever-afters, we're looking at another decade of production, at least!
Imagine: Hyacinth, the youngest Bridgerton, is currently played by the delightful Florence Hunt, who is just 15 years old.
By the time Hyacinth gets her own season, Florence will be pushing 30! Talk about a plot hole!
Is it just me, or does anyone else wonder what the actors are thinking? Surely they could be starring in multiple other projects while they wait for the next Bridgerton season to roll around.
The Time for Excuses Is Over
Look, we understand that creating a visually stunning period drama takes time. But two years between seasons is excessive, especially when other shows manage to produce far more content at a much faster pace.
Bridgerton, we adore you. But please, don't make us wait another decade for the remaining Bridgerton siblings to find their true loves. Our patience, like Lady Featherington's purse strings, is wearing thin.
