Netflix dropped their new historical romance series Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story on Friday and I am already making it my whole personality.

Not only did it have all the swoony romance (that dinner table scene omg), elaborate costumes and eccentric characters I’ve come to love about Bridgerton, the series also had an emotionally resonant undertone that made me sob by the end of the final episode.

In fact my only critique is that, at 6 episodes, it was far too short!
