Talkie Tuesday: A Recap

 

"TU-DUM!"

 

Hello everyone! I'm sort of cheating a little bit this week but, it's been a busy weekend what with summer FINALLY hitting us as well, so we've been out socializing, and then there's been other things happening that I'm just going to leave proof of down below.

 

You know, from Trooping the Colour to Netflix's TUDUM event in Brazil, this is a full on workday of entertainment put together! Honorary mention also goes to The Order of the Garter.

 

Enjoy.

 

Talkie Tuesday: Queen Charlotte, a Bridgerton Story

 

"What matters madness when true love flourishes?"

 

Hello everyone!

 

Or should I say, dearest gentle reader?

 

That's right, a month after the release on Netflix, I finally sat down to watch this show over the weekend.

 

See I'm REASONABLY on time for this merry-go-round.

 

I'll admit that I was a little bit apprehensive, because my past experiences with anything coming out of Shondaland have been ... skewed, really.

 

Because while most of the time it's OKAY, it then starts to deviate a little from what you'd expect, and not in the best way possible.

 

To my intense surprise, however, I truly, deeply loved this one. Loved it to the point I'm actually considering re-watching it, which hasn't happened with any of the regular seasons thus far.

 

If that isn't an endorsement I don't know what is!

 

So let's find our best manners, and have a look at Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story.

Tome Thursday: I Close My Eyes

 

Hello everyone!

 

A slight departure from my usual reading choices, but I thought that a cute little romp through a Regency novel wouldn't hurt any of us, right?

 

Right.

 

Besides, with all the hype around Bridgerton, there's literally an influx of these now.

 

Not to mention that some are getting much more recognition from the earlier years they were released as well.

 

This one came to me because it was offered for free through BookBub, yet another service that's absolutely fantastic if you're looking for discounted e-books and more affordable options, and I was intrigued enough, really.

 

I mean, someone on the road to spinsterhood and a scarred Duke? Yeah, colour me interested.

 

So without further ado, let's just jump right into it, shall we?

 

Because I Close My Eyes waits for no one.

 

Talkie Tuesday: Bridgerton

 

"All is fair in love and war."

 

Hello everyone!

 

Welcome back to the world of regency London and, er, questionable choices.

 

Editorial, make no mistake, as well as production choices.

 

Back during the heart of the pandemic, Netflix decided it was going to release what quickly became probably one of the most-watched shows of all time, and that's saying something since binge-watching is a thing.

 

Then they said they'd be coming back for season two.

 

And they did.

 

And I'm not okay with it.

 

Listen, I have thoughts, and this is my corner of the internet to share those thoughts. So strap into your stays and corsets and make sure you've got that money ready for the latest edition of Lady Whistledown's paper.

 

Because Bridgerton's second season was an even bigger doozy than the first.

I don't remember Kate being such an absolute bitch in the book.

Please have this turn around soon, I LOVED Anthony's story!

Talkie Tuesday: Bridgerton

 

"All is fair in love and war."

 

Hello everyone!

 

So continuing on with this month's trend, here's another series overview and recap from me to you, this time of one that dropped right at the tail end of 2020.

 

In the hopes of alleviating some truly awful moments of the year, Netflix gave us the Regency centered love story by Julia Quinn, and although there hasn't been any word yet about whether or not a season two is forthcoming, I think it's safe to say it might be.

 

After all, from all that can be seen and heard, this show was the most watched on Netflix at this time and it's saying a lot!

 

Make sure your stays are all in the proper position and that your tiaras aren't askew on top of your head.

 

It's time to be presented at court for the new season and to find a match.

 

In other words, its time for Bridgerton.
