• ‘Bridgerton’ season 3 marks the first time in the series’ history that Netflix has felt compelled to split the season into two parts. Did this work well for them? Did it play well for us?
• How about all those subplots? Were we intrigued or fatigued by how much they packed into this season? And more importantly, did it come at the expense of Polin?
• Speaking of Colin and Penelope, do we feel satisfied with the way their story played out or were we left wanting more?
• The topic of redemption as an overarching theme comes up in relation to Cressida, Lady Featherington, and even Penelope.
