This series was worse than "Emily in Paris." And I did not think I could ever say that about anything. I did go into it with an open mind, but I never made it past Jane's appeal to her cousin, Edward.
Jane's life is full of everything that makes for good storytelling - intrigue, manipulation, royalty, power, fear, fatal mistakes, pathos and faith. And all of that is real. This travesty of a show is so phenomenally anachronistic that I could not suspend my disbelief for a single moment. It is monumentally bad, and not worth a moment of anyone's time. I hated every minute.
Because you can tell instantaneously that the historicity has been utterly brutalized. I can appreciate having fun with things - I loved Monty Python's "Holy Grail" for instance, But utterly trashing the history, as Bridgerton did for another horrible example, is just criminal.

And you barely watched any of it so why should your opinion be taken seriously? Wow
