I unironically think it’s pretty good if you’re not repulsed by the genre lol

Straight, single, asian male here. I pushed myself through Season 1 thinking it was okay but knew that it wasn't for me.

Season 2 episode 3 though, I think that although still flawed, was the show at its very best and locked me in.

Season 2 is so above season 1, it's not even funny. I love a good slow burn so that's why I prefer Anthony and Kate more than the first couple

Anthony and Kate brought me back in. The first couple shouldn’t have been together.

So, the benefit of this show is that every season is a complete story with a different love story. So you can start with season three episode one and only miss out on a tiny bit of character info (which you'll realistically get in the first 20 minutes).

It is full on unapologic romance though. Doesn't try to be anything else but that. It's pretty people wearing cute clothes with a lot of sexual angst (and actual sex).

Enjoyed the first couple of episodes, when it was trying to be Pride and Prejudice, but when 50 Shades of Gray took the wheel, and never let go I gave up.

If you like Black Sails, you might like Bridgerton.

Especially season 2.
