Everyone on the internet seems to have an opinion about Netflix’s sensational Bridgerton series, and Heather and Jennifer are no exception. The show’s much-discussed Season 2 features Anthony Bridgerton and Kate Sharma’s slow-burn romance, but with some pretty big departures from the book that inspired it, Julia Quinn’s The Viscount Who Loved Me. In a special episode of the pod, Jennifer and Heather discuss what they loved and hated about the book-to-screen adaptation, because–shocker!—they don’t exactly see eye-to-eye…

Gifs mentioned in the episode by timestamp:

• 33:24 - Jenn recommends a TikTok by author Nisha Sharma about why it was important for Bridgerton to give Kate a choice in marrying Anthony in Regency England.
• 42:27 - Heather was wrong: Benedict will NOT be the hero of season 3–it’s going to be Colin and Penelope’s season after all...
