Bridgerton season 2 sets a new Netflix record, becoming the most-watched English-language series ever in its opening weekend.
Bridgerton season 2 sets a Netflix record for the premiere of an English-language show. Based on Julia Quinn's series of novels, Bridgerton is set in the highly-competitive world of the ton in Regency-era London in which debutantes are presented at court for the upcoming social season. The first season focused on the ruse-turned-fiery romance between Daphne Bridgerton and Simon Basset . Unfortunately, the fan-favorite Duke of Hastings did not return for the sophomore season.
Adapting the second book in Quinn's series, The Viscount Who Loved Me, season 2 instead focuses on another member of the titular family finding love, Daphne's older brother, Anthony Bridgerton . Edwina Sharma soon catches the Viscount's eye and he begins to pursue a love match with the diamond of the season despite the disapproval of her older sister, Kate .
The Korean-language series Squid Game, which dropped in September 2021, currently holds the record for Netflix's most-watched show in its first 28 days with 1.6 billion hours viewed. With Bridgerton season 2 off to a strong start on the platform, it will first look to outdo the success of the first season. If it is able to accomplish that, Bridgerton could set its sights on overtaking the Korean thriller as Netflix's most popular series overall, though that will be a steep hill to climb.
These viewing numbers help support something Netflix was likely already aware of: Bridgerton is a massive hit for the streaming service and they should continue treating it as one of their flagship series. Pursuing spinoffs is an important part of that plan, which they are already doing with a prequel series focused on a young Queen Charlotte. Other than that, considering the wealth of source material provided by Quinn's novels, the mainline series could run for as many as six more seasons.
