As a movie lover, I have always loved watching movies for as long as I can remember. In fact watching movies is one activity I love doing during my leisure hours.
I used to watch movies or series for longer hours without taking a break. Then, I always watched movies during weekdays and weekends. Those days, I can watch series with longer seasons and episodes. Series like The Big Bang Theory, Grey's Anatomy and many more.
But now I must confess that I don't think I can enjoy watching a series with longer episodes anymore because there are other things that keep me occupied.
Which is why I now love TV shows or series that I can binge-watch within some hours and I mostly do this usually during weekends as that's when I would have the time to rest after a stressful weekday.
One of my favorite bingeable series is “Queen Charlotte”. It's a prequel spin-off of the Bridgerton series and as an avid lover of the Bridgerton series, I fell in love with Queen Charlotte's story.
This Tv show tells the story of the origin of Queen Charlotte and King George III (played by Corey Mylchreest), the show revolved around their arranged marriage, how they fell in love and the struggle with King George's mental illness amidst societal pressure. The setting of the TV show was in the Georgian era (starting in 1761 when they got married).
Young Queen Charlotte and King George's characters were electric. I was in awe with how comfortable they were with each other, thereby giving us an amazing show.
India Amarteifio who played the young Queen Charlotte and Golda Rosheuvel older Queen Charlotte were both exceptional actresses. They brought love and life to this show. Their acting skills were top notch. They poured out their hearts into making this show everlasting in our hearts.
Another exceptional character in the show was Lady Agatha Danbury. Arsema Thomas and Adjoa Andoh who played the young and older Lady Danbury respectively. We all loved her in the Bridgerton series but this show made me love and understand her character more.
One of the things I loved in this show was Queen Charlotte's relationship with Lady Danbury. The common thing they had at first was the fact that they were both newcomers to the English Court. Their relationship grew over time with Lady Danbury becoming the Queen's Ally and Confidante and they both developed mutual respect for each other.
Queen Charlotte is one of the most beautiful yet heartbreaking love stories I have ever watched. The cast was amazing. The storyline was near perfection. I loved everything about this series. With one season and six episodes, I was left feeling mesmerised. I wished it never ends.
If you are yet to see this series, try doing so. I highly recommend it. You can also watch the Bridgerton series to better understand some of the cast, though it's not really mandatory.
I am rating this series 9 /10. It was that good.
Thank you for reading.
