The cast of the hit Netflix series Bridgerton bid farewell to 2020 with a funny year-end image. The show, created by Chris Van Dusen and produced by Shonda Rhimes, premiered on Christmas Day to much excitement. Rhimes, known for Grey's Anatomy, signed a multi-year deal with Netflix in 2017 and Bridgerton is one of her projects for the streaming platform. Unlike Rhimes' past shows, Bridgerton is a period drama based on Julia Quinn's novels, following the Bridgertons and the Featheringtons in 19th-century London during the debutante season.
Upon its release, Bridgerton received positive reviews for its combination of high society and drama.
Though Bridgerton has not been officially renewed, reports suggest that production on the second season is set to begin in March 2021. This indicates that Netflix may soon announce the show's return. In the meantime, Netflix shared a funny image of the Bridgerton cast bidding farewell to 2020, capturing the general public's feelings towards the new year.
Bridgerton has provided viewers with a much-needed escape from the current situation throughout the year. The show's period setting and escapism have been a welcome distraction for those staying at home. As the cast says goodbye to 2020, it is hoped that news of a season 2 renewal will come soon. Given the show's successful debut, it is likely that Netflix will order more episodes.
Fans of Bridgerton can continue to enjoy behind-the-scenes content from the witty cast while they wait for updates. The show has resonated with audiences, and a second season would be a reassuring announcement for viewers.
