When it comes to romantic dramas, "Bridgerton" has been one of the genre's biggest hits of the last decade. Now in its fourth season, which premiered its first four episodes on Jan. 29, with the back-half to arrive on Feb. 26, the Netflix series remains a reliable ratings hit. Those new eps brought in nearly 40 million views in the season's first four days of streaming, reports Variety, as well as a critical darling (season 4 currently has a solid 81% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes).
Despite the collective success of the "Bridgerton" brand — which is based on the bestselling Julia Quinn novels of the same name — there is one sparkling standout in the franchise's crown. A diamond, if you will: the 2023 prequel miniseries "Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story."
