HOW SIMILAR IS THIS TO GAME OF THRONES? | Bridgerton 1x1 "Diamond of the First Water" | REACTION!

[@UserName-vb4lg]

Lol shonda did not write the books. Julia Quinn wrote the books. Shondaland bought the rights.

[@HuntingViolets]

Although she later co-wrote the _Queen Charlotte_ novelization with Julia Quinn. (I agree with you -- just adding this.)

[@beatyz2]

1:13 I just had to think about how she mixed up the order for me to realize she probably just hadn't read. Then 2:22 😂 and because Shonda Rhymes apparently wrote the books! Stated with the confidence of someone who's never even seen the title cover of any of them! 🎉😁😁

[@agenttheater5]

2:47 They didn't have slaves in England - that is to say, they kept slaves in plantations in their colonies and made money off the slave trade, but there weren't any slaves in England itself.

[@mamaseesa3122]

Daphne's book is the first, the books are not in order by sibling. It's Daphne, Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Eloise, Francesca, Hyacinth, Gregory. So far the show is Daphne, Anthony, Colin. Benedict is next most likely.

[@snoopygonewilder]

Never thought about it, but I guess except for Daphne and Gregory they are in order

[@thelegacyofgaming2928]

For some reason I thought Gregory was before Hyacinth, lol

[@mamaseesa3122]

@thelegacyofgaming2928 he is if you're talking about birth order. Book order, he's last.

[@shirleydurr411]

@@snoopygonewilder That's because in those times women were expected to marry young but men could wait at least a decade later.

[@snoopygonewilder]

@@shirleydurr411 It's true that women were expected to marry younger, 100%... I do think that Regency romance books have led us to believe women were expected to marry straight out of the school room at 17-19 when the reality was it was actually early to mid-20s. I think men were thought to be of suitable age mid or late 20s or even early, since they went off to college and women didn't. I also think younger women were at a lower risk of dying at childbirth for their first baby and obviously capable of having more kids.

[@YCRhinoReactions]

Julie Andrews did play Mary Poppins. 😊

[@markwood6056]

While Bridgerton isn't historically accurate. England had got rid of Slavery in 1774. So technically before the US was even a nation. But they still allowed the slave trade outside of Britain itself. And British citizens could have slaves outside in their colonies. They finally ended the slave trade for their empire in 1807, and abolished slavery (except India which wasn't run by the crown) in the rest of the empire by 1833.

[@ChannelSee1]

Good to know. Thank you!

[@HuntingViolets]

@@ChannelSee1 A movie that deals with a famous case regarding slavery is _Belle,_ which is mostly the story of the real-life Dido Elizabeth Belle, the black daughter of an Englishman, who was raised by his family. There is a famous portrait of her with her white cousin. _Belle_ is a bit like a Jane Austen story if it dealt with race (there actually is a little of that in Austen's final, unfinished novel, which I haven't read yet -- it would have been interesting to see where she would have gone if she'd lived longer). You might find _Belle_ interesting to react to, though.

[@ChannelSee1]

@@HuntingViolets Thank you for the suggestion. Sounds very interesting to watch in general.

[@Carpathianpixie]

​@@HuntingViolets I love that movie!

[@mausilw]

As a former opera singer yes we do lmao. Opera singing requires a lot of breath and throat control. My fiancé is very happy 😂

[@agenttheater5]

6:24 I'd be careful about where and when I'd say things like that about Queen Charlotte if I was you, she has a very loyal fan base.

[@agenttheater5]

31:37 Because the housekeeper wouldn't be able to tell the difference between wine and period blood, right. I mean the smell differences if nothing else......and there's colour, and texture as well.

[@HuntingViolets]

This show is extremely inaccurate about corsets. Season one is based on the first book. The books are in order by whose love story occurs, and they don't fall in love by age order. They are named in alphabetical order (Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Gregory, and Hyacinth), but they don't fall in love/have a story in that order. You could rewear dresses in this era -- this show has a lot of inaccuracies, some on purpose and some not. And they actually liked the ladies to be more Penelope's size than Daphne's, but television, whatever. You did not just call Golda ugly. The miniatures are a bit like trading cards -- good comparison. Colin's hair is a bit bouffant in this episode. Siena has a job, she's an opera singer, but she can't afford to live on what she makes from that. It is common for a gentleman to offer support. Anthony was doing this and just took it out from under her with no notice. Not cool. And he told her he wouldn't do that in this episode too. Pray tell - basically, please tell me. Cressida. Not Caressida. 1813. The early 19th century. I never realized how Lady Whistledown lifts Marina up but in kind of an insulting way before. Yes, Julie Andrews won an Oscar for _Mary Poppins._ Maybe you're thinking of _Mary Poppins Returns._ If you're doing a show where the narrator is a pseudonymous character, you are most likely going to use an alter ego voice rather than the secret character's voice. If you've seen _Gossip Girl,_ it's the same thing. In my experience, men gossip as much as women (in reference to women gossiping).

[@allier1867]

i love girlies getting someone to watch Bridgerton. whether they ended up liking it or not. also she's a real one for liking Bridgerton. I love the show too :D

[@tonismith3707]

She was the original Mary Poppins. In the remake it's Emily Blunt.😊

[@HuntingViolets]

Sequel.

[@yulhi661]

Shonda didn't write the books.

[@lizzzaaas6004]

Julia Quinn wrote the books, the first book The Duke and I which this season is based off, came out in the year 2000

[@sandrayeo8347]

Mary Poppins is actually Julie Andrews' most famous character

[@shanaedyer]

Thank you for saying this.

[@DavidMacDowellBlue]

Dresses at that time were far more expensive, because every single one had to be hand-made. Food was either much cheaper or much more expensive. Young ladies were getting married at 15 or 16 sometimes. More typical was 17 or 18. Their husbands were usually several years older. They began teh show by explicitly saying it was the year 1813. Fireworks existed but those sparklers did not. Julie Andrews did indeed play Mary Poppins. I'm not enjoying this reaction. You guys seem determined to show off how proudly ignorant and unimpressed you are. What's the point of that?

[@Queenbsayuri]

I how you guys continue but I’d love if Amanda gave you info about the show since she’s already seen it so much. Shonda made the cast very inclusive & diverse so all the jokes and surprises could’ve been refocused to the plot of the show. There’s much more so please don’t stop! ❤

[@ChannelSee1]

We’re watched the first 6 episode already. With each episode we more invested in the plot and characters.

[@helenroberts1107]

They weren't slaves, they were servants that were paid for their work and valued

[@thelegacyofgaming2928]

Excited to binge these reactions tonight!

[@ChannelSee1]

Thats' what we like to hear!

[@acceptinglife6491]

I can't wait for more reactions!

[@livelovelife32]

Damn peps...the reaction was half weak/in poor taste jokes, a quarter talking in general and a quarter actually looking at the show. Y'll aren't usually this distracted. I know this isn't really your thing but I do hope the reaction gets a bit better if y'll decide to continue.

[@ChannelSee1]

Thanks for your feedback. Stick with us for a few episodes. As we get more in the story and character we do start taking it more seriously and actually quite enjoying the show.

[@dianedavid3052]

You can get legally married age 16 in the UK but cannot legally purchase alcohol until you’re 18

[@HuntingViolets]

The age of legal marriage is variable in the U.S., some lower than 16.

[@Moiraine83]

Dowdy means shabby/not becoming in appearance, or somewhat old fashioned. So Lady F was trying to talk Marina down.

[@UserName-vb4lg]

The baby bangs were supposed to look like Audrey Hepburn. They didn’t work tho.

[@NiKiMa023]

👀Mandy!? Bridgerton is a surprise, I’m here for it!!

[@zairegatison7757]

Actually you got the books wrong Daphne is the 1st book and honestly don’t compare the books to the show they are very different in a lot of aspects. And no Shonda Rhymes did not write the books. Not to be rude but should probally look up stuff first before assuming things

[@adrianpeart]

33:15 ~ LMFAO

[@marmar8604]

The s4 gonna be Benedict’s Can’t wait it’s my fave

[@kerrissedai6857]

Fresh on the marriage mart could be younger that 18!

[@liseu.2271]

I can't wait until you guys get to episodes 2 and 3. I know I'm going to be howling with your reactions to certain events😂😂. Hurry, get to it, I need your comments in my life😅

[@SoniaAlese]

Yes Julie Andrews is Mary Poppins 😂 I would argue her most iconic role

[@agenttheater5]

11:32 From what I remember it's all in the legs.

[@Deltadivaix]

Geez, girl in the middle with all ths spoiling and wrong explanations.

[@nanny934]

Would love to see you guys react to Outlander

[@ChannelSee1]

Interesting. Noted. We’ll see what we can do in the future.

[@tonzyjc]

Love outlander. I would watch a reaction for sure

[@El_Ezra_Meitar5]

Mandy gurl I love you but the confidence in which you say wrong facts like how Julie wasn't Poppins or how Shonda wrote Bridgerton 😂😂😂 it was too much for me lol hilarious

[@ShelleyArissa]

Some of these comments are so uptight 💀 I liked the reaction! You guys are funny and said almost everything I was thinking when I first watched this😂

[@AlwaysRightAllNight]

This show was not my cup-of-tea at all. However, I have watched it all and it is really good. Also, if you like Grey's anatomy then do you think we will get some Greys vids on the channel?

[@AleyaW]

5:52 I’m I the only one that thinks they look alike?

[@1kpopmultistan]

Julia Quinn wrote the books lmao

[@hanayah2315]

Yikes! 😬 Moving forward on…

[@percyweasley9301]

Watch SEASON 2 SURELY. IT'S THE BEST 😅😅 And of books Benedict's book ie the best.. 😊

[@ChannelSee1]

lol we will be watching ALL of bridgerton, don't worry. Right now we'll only be able to release 1 episode a week as we're also watching Hotd and The Boys.

[@Lavender7193]

Shonda did not write the books, Julia Quinn did

[@salty_fish8762]

the dude on the left was ruining the reaction, talkin about black people being slaves but hating on the queen being a woman of color by denying her blackness? I cannot enjoy the reactions at all.

[@aparnay6391]

Is it just me or does Mandy kinda look like Daphne (I mean it as a compliment!)

[@carshawnbutler2101]

Keep the comments not funny. I’m trying to watch the whole video but you’ll getting on my nerves with the weak jokes. Please watch or don’t. Be serious

[@ChannelSee1]

As we get into more episode we do get into the actual show more, especially after episode 3. Just understand we've always been light hearted and humor will always be staple of our reactions, but we understand if you don't appreciate our kind of humor for this show. Thank you for your support over the past year!

[@carshawnbutler2101]

@@ChannelSee1 I understand I watch most of your videos and it is more serious even with jokes. It seems like you both think you may not like it so the jokes but this show is serious and so are the fans. I was barely able to watch entire video is all I was saying and you all asked if you should. I say take it seriously cause it is a great show and such.

[@ChannelSee1]

If you stay with us for a few episodes we do begin start to take it more seriously.

[@carshawnbutler2101]

Please stop playing games with this show. It’s a good show watch and listen stop talking about the queen or people won’t watch. People will drag you about Queen Charlotte. Watch or don’t but don’t play games.

Am I the only one who thinks Amanda looks like Daphne in a way but bangs are way way better in Amanda? I swear when you put Daphne underneath her it's like I'm almost looking at the same woman. Absolutely loved your guys reaction I'm now binging to catch up ❤

lol no, several people have commented the same on a few videos now. She is pretty! Also, we release new Bridgerton reactions every Sunday at 10am est, just fri! - Cam
