Netflix's Bridgerton prequel QueenCharlotte is achingly romantic in every sense of the term, grounded in a fantastic pair of central characters and a mature understanding of what marriage means. LacyMB reviews:
So, when the news first broke that Netflix would be expanding the onscreen world of its mega-popular period drama, many people were likely more than a bit apprehensive.
The story begins with the young Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz on her way to marry King George III of England, a man she has never met and whom she does not particularly want to wed. Thankfully, Charlotte’s initial encounter with her betrothed before their wedding is basically one of the most adorable meet-cutes of all time, and the air between the two fairly crackles with chemistry.
The young queen’s arrival in her new country also kicks off something of a firestorm in the palace, because Charlotte, you see is Black, and the upper echelons of English society are most certainly not. One of the most intriguing elements offirst season is its almost effortlessly integrated London, one that we repeatedly hear is due to Charlotte and George’s marriage, an event that supposedly ended racism in its wake.
Here, we learn that England’s integration ultimately boils down to little more than an attempt by the crown to save face. Not realizing that she betrothed her son to a foreign princess of a much darker skin tone, the Dowager Princess Augusta devises “The Great Experiment,” which elevates some of London’s wealthiest families of color to the peerage and grants them land and titles.
But, at the end of the day, it is Charlotte, whether played by Rosheuvel or Amarteifio, who makes this show worth watching and who stands out as one of the best, most complex characters in theuniverse to date.
