Watching The FIRST And LAST Episodes Of * Queen Charlotte : A Bridgerton Story*

[@IAmSeanThompson]

Was this show better than the original bridgerton show ? Full Uncut Commentary for these episodes and other tv shows and movies is available on : www.patreon.com/SeanThompson

[@blovelyee899]

they really wanted her because she’s so light skin

[@blovelyee899]

the great experiment was basically combining the sides of black and white kinda. so they went and get the lightest black girl they could

[@Lannisen]

I did like this one better than Bridgerton. Not that I dislike Bridgerton at all, I love it, but this story felt more real, bigger stakes. And the way it addresses mental health in a time when they didn't know anything about mental health. I cried so many times through this season.

[@gracelynncotten8848]

Yeah I was super disappointed when I saw first and last

[@gracelynncotten8848]

@@blovelyee899 well it was actually believed that the real queen Charlotte was light skinned but her portraits showed her as white. If you read up on how people who actually met her described her, I’d say shondaland did a good job with her casting.

[@user-sx6eu4rg2x]

Man you did yourself a disservice only watching the first and last, this show is very good, and you’ve missed some good stuff in the missing episodes.

[@kordei-7839]

He does tend to do these with shows but yeah it doesn’t work with this show. He missed so much context

[@user-sx6eu4rg2x]

@@kordei-7839 yup! And this show was only 6 episodes so he could have gotten through it quickly and gotten the full story.

[@kihyahouston387]

It’s blowing my mind that you miss basically everything with the doctor. You have no idea all of the steps it took for Charlotte and George to get to this point of their story.

[@joannehanna2590]

I couldn't watch another minute 🤯

[@panashe5268]

Yeah they’re gonna get on you for this one, especially since Queen Charlotte is only six episodes. You definitely could’ve just binged the whole thing.

[@mwjacobs]

I agrée with so many of the other commenters. This was the best of the Bridgerton series, and it is a shame you didn’t see the entire season. Please watch it in full even if you don’t film it. The ending won’t have the same impact now, but it is still worth a full viewing.

[@XxxMuseluverxxX]

I would’ve loved to see your reaction to the episodes in between! I cried so hard watching the last few episodes lol

[@ophiluna]

SAME. i was literally sobbingggg

[@mandarinclemmie]

Honestly I hate this segment. First and Last, I mean. You cheat yourself out of good arcs. I get doing this with a really, really long show like Grey's Anatomy, but this show has SIX episodes. How difficult would have been to watch all of them?

[@AnaisKarim]

Right. This really loses all of the meaning of the journey.

[@Arionthelady]

I never like when KZbin do these type of videos. The ending is nothing without the stuff in between.

[@Midnight7970]

I don't like it either, not to seem mean but it's kinda stupid. There is no point in watching the first and last episodes ONLY of any series, it's pointless.

[@erikperhs_]

I love this type of videos, but for less quality shows like Glee for example, because it's so random and makes for a funny video. But this show was NOT one of those.

[@roseflowth]

It is just a segment, don't take it personal. In the video, he said that if enough people ask him to do the entire show, he will watch it. I know it won't be the same as watch it in orden but al least it's something.

[@reseonome4043]

Sean, you're literally asking questions that you would have known if you'd just watched the whole season.

[@kihyahouston387]

It’s kinda killing me that you’re probably seeing all the comments telling you to watch the rest but I’m gonna tell you the same thing like you truly hurt yourself not watching this masterpiece

[@broseb64]

You missed out man. This is the best thing I've seen in a long time. The writing is superb. There are things you must see in 2-5 for 6 to make sense and truly be appreciated.

[@luhhgee]

Queen Charlotte was so good that it don’t need a season 2 😭

[@luckycharm7619]

You missed so much doing it this way. Hopefully, you will revisit and do the rest of the episodes. The show is so good.

[@chelsieguiller]

First and last eps videos can work with long comedy or drama series because the stakes are never high and it can be fun to make guesses about what you missed, but for a miniseries with 6 episodes and only two major plots you've lost all context that would make the last episode mean anything and ruined the rest of a great show for yourself. Sorry some people are being kind of harsh but this probably wasn't the right show for this video format :/

[@briarswt]

You’re right about the baby being the future Queen Victoria - a nice little Easter egg there

[@acceptinglife6491]

It was only 6 episodes, wish you'd watched the entire show

[@blackpanther1001]

This is the one show where you watching just the first and last episode is an issue. So many key components were missed.

[@godisgreat10]

Noo why would you do this to yourself?! This was such a good show. To me this was much better than Bridgeton. You need to watch the rest Sean!

[@fayo3216]

you say they don't have the characters but you only watched 2 episode

[@harrypottersnumbrfan]

"You are out of mourning" Back in those days you wore black the entire time you mourn. She was no longer wearing black, thats how charlottes brother knew she was no longer in mourning

[@rosanjiela]

WATCH THE ENTIRE SERIES!!!!! I love Bridgerton, but this series is just something else! I love them. I love their love.

[@lucentaunisage]

"Sorrows, sorrows, prayers" still cracks me up even though this is truly a beautiful and sad love story.

[@jamiedisu727]

Omg why would you do this? Terrible idea. This show is a masterpiece

[@goldiesunset32]

I liked this more than the bridgerton show ngl

[@gemgirl2000]

I never truly understood the purpose of watching only the 1st and the last episode of a limited series and then exercise audacity in well…very limited awareness of the full story. The audacity is to have the comment section do your work for you? It could really be remedied by watching all six episodes…….oh well, good luck to you.

[@gigga143]

she was white but it is reported she had Black Moor blood and was a bit tanner but that she was painted lighter skinned. Queen Elizabeth talked about a mixed relative in their family like Meghan and i believe Queen Charlotte is who she was speaking about, but the show took more liberties in making her more noticeably black and playing on that fact with the what if this had happened back in the day.

[@devilish84]

You've missed out on all the character development, story arcs, relationship building, etc... that went into the other 4 episodes in between! I thought you were only going to show the reaction to the 1st & last episode, not that you were only going to watch those 2 episodes. It's a miniseries... it could've been fully watched in 2 days max 🤷‍♀️

[@madeleinehoward3418]

Mourning in this period is shown through clothing! So in full mourning we see all black and veils. Then they move to partial mourning, where they start to wear lighter blacks, greys, and light purples! So Adolphus knows Lady Danbury is out of mourning because she is wearing purple!

[@clawajlet2595]

This series has only 6 episodes, really?

[@acceptinglife6491]

Thanks for the reaction. Personally this is my fave Bridgerton story, it was amazing 😭

[@HarlemGirl643]

I have to agree with the majority of the comments on this video. You have done yourself and this show a disservice by not watching the whole show. You are literally asking questions that are answered by the show itself and you miss the emotional arcs and hard work these characters have done to build their relationships. Without a doubt this is the best of the Bridgerton series so far due to its true emotional depth, maturity, brilliant script and stellar acting by the cast. Please go back and watch the episodes you missed.

[@kamilahfromja]

It was only 6 episodes. Surely you could have binged it. You missed out on the good stuff.

[@jennifer7317]

I usually enjoy first and last series but this was so frustrating 😭 cause this show is so good if you understand whats happening its almost like you ruined 🤣 all your questions had me yelling like nah you ruined the show for yourself I feel bad cause it's fantastic

[@elsapelsa]

WHY would u watch only the first and last???

[@bhavika1372]

what's the point of doing this for a show that only has 6 episodes?

[@ninamatthews8747]

It’s definitely better than bridgerton if you had actually watched the show, 😂

[@kimberlybecoatstudio7020]

This was the silliest thing and most disrespectful thing to do to such a worthy series. Watching the 1st and last episodes with zero context in between? Terrible.

[@Kris-mq7be]

Worst decision ever... you did this show and yourself a disservice... watch the whole show or watch nothing.

[@lstarsabb]

Yeah he is literally asking questions that were answered in the episodes he didn't watch.

[@agenttheater5]

20:53 George, the one who keeps crying because his daughter just died, hated his wife (to the degree that he somehow prevented her from being part of her daughters life and didn't even tell her when she'd died) so that's probably why he didn't have any other children with her, and also probably why we never see her.

[@shirongoci7877]

First and Last only!!! 😭😭😭 For Queen Charlotte 😭😭😭😭😭

[@suprsparx]

This is really worth watching all six episodes because you're really doing yourself a disservice in only viewing the first and last. It's like this universe keeps getting better and better and while Bridgerton was amazing, both seasons, this is on a whole other level. Please if you can, do a reaction to all of the episodes because it's such an outstanding series of television.

[@HasnaaAlaa]

At least tell me you went back and watched the whole thing 🙏

[@steph4536]

NOOOOO the middle episodes of this show are the best part and gives you the context, you missed so much 😭 Please watch the whole thing...

[@sejbomb]

So out of mourning they would have started to wear another colour besides black (usually purple and work their way back to full colour) that was what was expected lol. The young woman who died pregnant would be her daughter in law and future grandchild.

[@lexmc8419]

It was her granddaughter and great granddaughter. How they worded it is very confusing

[@Drew-cv2jl]

I don't get this type of trope...why watch only the first and last episode? You are doing a disservice to yourself and the fans who would want to watch you react to the show to appreciate the ESSENCE of what it is.

[@indreduobaite13]

I have watched a few videos like this in the past of shows I didn't care that much about but I also don't really get why would anyone enjoy this concept. I only came here to check the comments since I wanted to see if people were happy with this or not.

[@laramalik8890]

Good hips are good for childbirth, big hips used to be equal to fertility, and you need to kind of open your hips so the baby gets out

[@jaizahamin3280]

This is the worst way to have watched the show😔

[@brandonpadilla5402]

The message of love in this season was phenomenal. Love is as beautiful as a butterfly in the wind but as gruesome as a spider eating it’s next victim it is a battle of happiness and sorrow. But for some it is a battle worth fighting for. She could have left him at any moment but she stayed and pushed on for him for the goodness in his heart. I can imagine the toll it would take to watch your partner go through something as serious as what George did. A true test of love and not taking the easy way out and climbing over the wall.

[@alexl.7668]

Queen Charlotte is a one-season spinoff that premiered after season 2 of Bridgerton had already finished. I think Bridgerton season 3is coming out sometime this year.

[@steph4536]

this is probably the worst thing you could’ve done with this show 😭 i’m sad now, Please watch the rest 🙏

[@erikperhs_]

This show was one of the best things I've watched in the last years and it saddens me that you ruined this experience for yourself :(

[@zyanmccall3945]

U missed out on the episodes

[@SoniaAlese]

Youre watching all those trash barbie films yet only watched 1st and last episode of this amazing show that was only 5 episodes long?! You should go back and watch the full episodes!!

[@LA-tz8zr]

Love your reactions! If you ever come back to the series, I'm definitely watching again~!

[@MM-vz7fu]

Sean you could have watch the 6 lil episodes and I did a whole video 😂😂 you missed all the important scenes but good vid tho ❤

[@mkshelby2000]

I'm so excited for the Barbie video!!! Also great reaction video once again. Love your videos.

[@jackieknoll9818]

Lady Danburry's Husband died in bed after a vigorous bedding.

[@HuntingViolets]

This show is basically a miniseries, complete in itself. Maybe we'll get a spinoff miniseries about Reynolds and Brimsley or further adventures of Lady Danbury or something.

[@MsMaggyW]

People used to think (wrongly) that wide hips were a sign of fertility and easier birthing (babies would fit through more easily). In reality the hips are irrelevant to the size of the pelvic opening needed for the baby, and the baby's size is also important. But this was back when a C-section was a death sentence so they tried to find wives that they thought least likely to need that.

[@LordVolkov]

You missed all the good stuff 😅 1 is just intro and 6 is all wrap-up. 2-5 is the meat of Queen Charlotte.

[@Lubna.A]

This seosen was so good you messed up this only works for funny shows

[@mapletree3434]

A lot of your conclusions are totally mistaken because you haven't watched all the episodes. Or at least you don't address many complexities... Even George 's mother has a heartbreaking monologue which adds a lot to her character. Anyway, I realized that these first-last episode reactions are quite frustrating to me. Goes for other KZbinrs and series reaction of this type I tried to watch. Whoever enjoys it, more power to you! Great! Cheers

[@fezekazulu8418]

It was just 6 episodes dude. You missed out big time by doing this smh.

[@harrypottersnumbrfan]

aww i just checked. Charlotte died in 1818, victoria was born in 1819 and george died in 1820

[@liseu.2271]

WHY????? you should have watched episode 4 to really get this show. You missed the sadistic doctor and all the torture scenes. Bad, Bad, choice on your part🤬🤬😡😡

[@michonneokoye4990]

Mentally illness is not terminal, so it doesn't matter as to why she died first.

[@tonzyjc]

I'm going to repeat what everyone is saying. I cant believe you didn't just watch the 6 episodes. It's a brilliant show.

[@izziehw]

The line of succession went George the 3rd George the 4th William and then Victoria, William was George’s brother he didn’t have any children so it went to Prince edwards daughter as Edward died the same year as George the 3rd

[@ftwi1]

I think Queen Charlotte died before Victoria was born and king George about 4 years after that

[@jelaminahjackson3208]

You was right it’s Queen Victoria

[@l0v3rrgrrll]

no way u only watched two episodes of this😭

[@stephthebookdragon7568]

I love watching your videos! The way you sometimes are spot on is amazing! This made me laugh so much! Than you for your videos! 😄

[@agenttheater5]

498:17 I'm not sure when George the Third died, but when he died his eldest son George (the one who lost his daughter) became George the Fourth (and didn't invite his wife to his coronation). As he had no legitimate children asides from his late daughter and since his brother the second son Frederick died before he did (and with no children since according to this show he didn't see his wife for something like 20 years), when George the Fourth died his brother the third son William became William the Fourth. William had a surprisingly affectionate and caring marriage with his wife Adelaide but they had no children (either one or two miscarriages or one or two babies who died after a few months) asides from his 10 illegitimate children he'd had before he married her (apparently she got on surprisingly well with all of them), so Victoria became his heir presumptive as her father Edward had been the fourth son. Apparently that meant she should've attended his court often but her mother prevented it because she didn't like William and he didn't like her - plus there was that whole drama with that Conroy man. I think some reckon that it was also because of William and Adelaide not having any children that they wanted Victoria to be at court more.

[@animeknockout]

OMG i was screaming watch the show!! The entire half part. All of your questions get answered. I really hope you did 😩

[@sarahsupasweet]

It's only 6 episodes. You should have watched the whole thing. (I personally hate the whole youtuber reactions of watching the first and last episodes of shows) I hope you'll consider rewatching, even if just for yourself. Though I'd feel it was ruined personally. Amazing show.

[@MsMaggyW]

You would know if someone was in mourning because they would be wearing black, or at least a black armband I believe. I think there was a minimum amount you had to mourn to appear proper, otherwise it would look like you didn't care about the deceased. But I think you could mourn for as long as you like. If Lady Danbury had loved her husband, she could have stayed in mourning. So Adolphus wasn't being presumptive when he said she must be out of mourning, she was wearing bright colours. I suppose you couldn't court someone in mourning.

[@maevalongchamp4063]

For going from first to last... not a bad analysis. The way you get your answers is hilarious.

[@miss_sea_lou2318]

Hope you’re feeling better. Thank you for doing this with everything going on. Keeping you in my prayers 🙏🏽

[@deja957]

Brooo this is my show so amazing

[@LaFayette3110]

I feel like you have to really be into Bridgerton to get it and out up with it, which I am. Loved this series but for the rewatches I skip the abuse. Their chemistry is one of the best I've seen in a while 🤩

[@shanaedyer]

Omg you missed every important details of this series, especially what George went through with dealing with the doctor that came to help him.

[@kordei-7839]

Oh you lost so much context but I’m sure I’ll still enjoy this reaction

[@ginasreview1030]

HOPEFULLY you watch episodes 2 - 5 to get the everything in between & how ✨AMAZING✨ it is.

[@salemoh9759]

Your right...queen Victoria 😊

[@adithalee8660]

Charlotte was bi-racial. Half caucasian and half black. In America black in other countries they'd say she was white.

[@jennifer7317]

this show is not coming back by the way it is limited 😭

[@stephenhall509]

31:30 just bros being bros

[@deja957]

But also she only has 13 kids two ended up in a miscarriage I believe or still birth not sure

[@liseu.2271]

Yes she did have 15 kids, two died from smallpox as toddlers of 3 and 4 years old. I imagine she may have had miscarriages as well. Medical care by then was scary. 😮

[@HuntingViolets]

Best not to try and figure it out based on dates in our world. Even in their world, some things don't match.

[@true2myself214]

Go back and watch it in its whole entirety. It's like you only ear the bread on a sandwich leaving the meat behind. Please watch the other 4 episodes

[@rebecavlogs5957]

I love this first and the last episode!

[@lyndonjames8607]

If you chose to do a first and last on Queen Charlotte, this was the most wasted reaction opportunity ever. It is easily the strongest storytelling of all of the Bridgerton entries and benefits most from following all of the episodes in the sequence presented because of what you are/aren't initially shown and what comes to be revealed. I've become a recent admirer of your Bridgerton commentaries and your insightfulness, but won't be watching this one.

[@nkrose8177]

If they get caught they got beheaded back in those days.

[@Midnight7970]

The first and last episodes ONLY!? Nah something is wrong with this sorry but you are missing out on the best Bridgeton story. Also the show is literally 6 episodes long, you could have easily watched all 6 episodes...
