The Bridgerton Bros

The Bridgerton season 3 trailer   has dropped, and there's minimum two, maybe three new characters revealed already, and one of them wasn't even in the friggin' books: Lord Debling (Sam Phillips) a Netflix creation all for Penelope's enjoyment. He throws a wrench in the Pen/Colin plan, and we're (sort of) reserving judgment for now. Hit us with your thoughts, feelings, predictions, and if you woul...

Bridgerton wished us all a very happy Valentine's Day with a couple new teaser clips, and we're here to play them in full for ya, comment on them, and tell you everything we know so far, like the episode dropdates: four episodes on May 16th, and four episodes on June 13th. We also talk sh*t to David Zaslav when we meant Ted Sarandos but the points still stand, and you won't BELIEVE the trivia Jon...

Happy Valentine's Day, lovers! We decided to do a classic romcom that *one* of us had never seen, and drop it as a romantic, holiday bonus. So here we are, with a movie that doesn't work on paper, but big time works on the screen: a star-making turn by Julia Roberts who has "it" more than just about anyone has ever had, Richard Gere somehow making us like a 41 year old billionaire, Hector Elizondo...

Do you Bridgerbuddies have some extra traveling this Thanksgiving season? Some extra time in the car, on a plane, or just drowning out your relatives? Well, we've got a sort of on theme bonus podcast for you, bringing it over from the Patreon to the main feed. (Plot summary starts at 9:04 time stamp) We hop back into the Regency Era for the 2005 Jane Austen adaptation of "Pride and Prejudice" star...

In the Queen Charlotte finale, we all have to slide under the bed for a little safety. In future Bridgerton times, the Queen's kids finally clap back at the good Queen/bad mom, while still trying to find her another heir, and a little hat gives away an old secret between Danbury and Violet in future Bridgerton times. In young Queen times, she has her first child, and gets to work on another. In bo...

It's time for some vegetation-based sexual metaphors! We get a forbidden love story for young Lady Danbury, a hint at a future love story (or lust story) for the extremely worked up Violet Bridgerton, and Queen Charlotte thinks about bolting for Germany. Ultimately, she decides to stay, and fight, and try to save our George. Also there's a wedding for people you absolutely do not care about, Eyebr...

In an episode that is a significant amount of scenes we've literally seen before, we rewind and get the King George perspective of things to this point. We see him get the news of his wife to be, his ensuing episode, and his last ditch effort to try to "fix" himself, which leads him into the hands of a power hungry, abusive doctor. The good news is: he saved a cute lil' doggie. Rate and review us,...

The Queen and King are still beefin', but that doesn't mean they can't put some good old-fashioned hate sex on a regular, every-other-day schedule. We get the OG Danbury Ball, a look at Bridgermom (Violet Ledger) as a child, with her racist mom and enabling (but better) dad, a death that we've actually been rooting for, and a big weird night for Farmer George…that ends with a pretty nice depiction...

The Queen goes from bored to pissed as she chases down her king, and asks the very important question: why no bone zone? Ultimately they locate that very important location (with no witnesses, which is apparently an innovation?), and said bone zone is a place their assistants have been enjoying together for a WHILE, apparently. Queen Danbury is a big highlight in this one, with a great showdown wi...

In the first episode of the Queen Charlotte series, the pre-Queen Charlotte finds her way from Germany to England…and she has no idea why she's been chosen. She also has no idea what the King's deal is, or what he looks like. There's a problematic Queen Mother with an ALL TIMER of a problematic question (shout out to Lizzie for the inspiration), an introduction of our girl Danbury, and a baker's d...

May 4th, we will return to binge Queen Charlotte's new series with you. But for now? We go DEEP on the new extended trailer, and catch you up with what we know so far. THEN (starting at 25:08), we tell you all about the book "Inside Bridgerton," from Shonda Rhimes and Betsy Beers. Behind the scenes photos, stories, the answers to some controversial topics — it's fun! And it proves: we CAN actually...

Happy Valentine's to us all! We have been gifted a new "Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story" trailer, and more importantly, a release date: May 4. Six episodes will drop all at once the first weekend of May (which we will fully cover), and Kevin and Jon hop on the mics for the first time in MONTHS to analyze the trailer, the characters, and what we know so far. If you're missing that sweet, sweet...

Lindsay Lohan is back with a Netflix Christmas movie, and Kevin and Jon were hungover after celebrating Friend Christmas this weekend, so we have a seasonal bonus episode for y'all, and if you drink every time you see a Christmas movie cliché, you'll black out 'til actual Xmas. It's Overboard-meets-It's A Wonderful Life with Lindsay Lohan and Chord Overstreet, and they're joined by a Pee Wee Herma...

The year was 2004, and a group of ladies on Wisteria Lane brought a bunch of wacky drama that turned into the biggest pop culture phemonenon of the year: Desperate Housewives. Teri Hatcher, Marcia Cross, Eva Longoria, Felicity Huffman, Nicollette Sheridan and a series of dudes including a hot gardener and — according to Jon — a slightly less hot plumber have given the fellas behind Sex and The Cid...

Dearest Gentlelisteners, as you know, Shondaland is always expanding its borders, and it seems a Bridgerton spinoff will now be delivered unto us…sometime in 2023. Kevin and Jon hop on the mics to sum up what we currently know about the series that was just announced, and to say yes, we will be podcasting about it right here on the Bridgerton Bros feed. Rate and review if you haven't, and mark you...

Back in 2001, a time travel romcom starring Meg Ryan and a young Hugh Jackman came into our lives, and far in the future, Kevin and Jon talk about it. Hugh Jackman plays Leopold, Duke of Albany, a man out of time and reason enough for us to make this connection with our Bridgerton Bros audience. Come for Hugh's actually great, Golden Globe nominated performance, stay for Sleepy Meg Ryan, Wacky Lie...

There's a new, popular, romantic, old-timey British movie on Netflix, so Kevin and Jon figured it was a good time to hop on the Bridgerton Bros feed for an in-between-seasons episode. We're doing the modernized (VERY modernized) Persuasion, a story by Jane Austen. Dakota Johnson stars and breaks the fourth wall, and Jon develops a crush on one of the worst sisters in history in this Cinderella-mee...

We've got Bridgerton Book Club Experts The Basic Moms (Julie McNulty & Claire Gregory) back again to tell us everything about Bridgerton book 2, "The Viscount Who Loved Me," and how it differed from the Netflix series. The #1 difference? Oh, just the plot. NBD. They also tell us about the new characters, their reaction to the shakeup of Colin and Pen going next, and what the biggest controversy of...

Penlin? Colinope? What do we call them? It seems like this latest Bridgerton announcement is not only saying season 3 will be about Colin and Penelope, but about them…together? Oh boy. We parse the latest Whistledown and talk about our feelings and thoughts (and some of yours!) for the now announced season three of Bridgerton in a lil' mini episode for y'all. We've missed you already! And great ne...

Listeners of the 'Ton, we're bringing all our stories to a rousing climax in the season 2 finale! (Plot recap begins at 6:32) We're talking about Kate's smol coma, Anthony's growth from angry young man to magnanimous head of the family, the Sharma sisters' public rebrand, world's worst detective Eloise finally getting to the heart of who Whistledown is, and the Featherington's grift reaching its i...

So, the wedding was #awkward, and now no one is talking to the Bridgertons or the Sharmas on their promenade, which is a fate worse than death. The families try to look united in public, put a ball together, and FINALLY, things get sexy…at least until a horse brings us another problem. The Queen picks the wrong Whistledown, Eloise does everything wrong at every step once again, and Penelope writes...

It's wedding day, so Anthony and the Sharma sisters really, REALLY have to start figuring out what's going on here. Our Queen is absolutely on one, snorting powder and demanding peacocks, while Edwina puts everything together at the most inconvenient of times. Benny is drunk, Lady Danbury is on her heels for the first time, the Featheringtons are scamming themselves horny, and (spoiler)…faces ACTU...

Wait — is there a way out for Anthony from his proposal to Edwina? Maybe! Lady Bridgerton (who is about to be replaced by Ed?!) pitches an exit plan, and another one presents itself after the Shamra scheme is revealed. There's wet white shirts on buff bois, the absolutely worst humans on Earth (the Sheffields), the dumbest asshole on Earth planning her next scheme (Lady Featherington) and Anthony'...

Friends of the 'Ton, it's time to shoot your shot — whether it's at a buck in the wild, or at the woman you think you're supposed to marry. Lady Featherington works with Prudence to hatch the dumbest scheme in the history of dating, and Kate and Anthony get SO close to declaring their feelings, and EVEN CLOSER to touching faces. No one has ever gotten closer to a kiss without doing it, it's incred...

It's flashback time, Bridgerton dad is struck down by a bee, Anthony is traumatized, and we get a lot of backstory. The pinnacle of this ep is definitely when Kate is stung by a bee and Anthony gets, uh, emotional. We also meet Daphne's baby, and the Feather family fully commits to the goofball lifestyle and brings us a lot of hilarious moments. Also: Pall-mall! Patreon: patreon.com/KevinandJon
