Did you catch these mistakes in Queen Charlotte?

Bridgerton is back but Netflix and QUEEN CHARLOTTE have some explaining to do...at least according to twitter discourse??? I love George and Charlotte but we really need to talk.

(Keep scrolling for TIMESTAMPS)

In this thought-provoking video, I delve into the issue of continuity and its impact on storytelling, using the recent Netflix series, "Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story" as a case study. Join me as I discuss a Twitter thread by fashion historian Dr. Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell, who raises concerns about the historical inaccuracies in the show's background paintings and its effect on the overall world-building and immersion. We explore the importance of maintaining consistency and coherence in movies and TV shows, drawing examples from popular franchises like Harry Potter, the Marvel Cinematic Universe and more! Seriously, it's about to get really geeky up in here.

We will also be swooning over Corey Mylchreest as King George, errrr I mean just George, praising the return of Golda Roshuvel as our returning queen and take a closer look at India Amarteifio's costumes.

YES, obviously we're not ending without some costume design chat! Tired corset tropes included. (I just want them to call them stays just once 🙃)

Additionally, we examine the significance of continuity for audience engagement and suspension of disbelief. Discover why even seemingly minor details, such as set dressing and production design, can have a significant impact on the overall viewing experience. Ultimately, we explore the nuances of criticism, the value of insights from experts, and how they can enrich our understanding and appreciation of the media we love. Don't miss this fascinating discussion that sheds light on the complexities of creating fictional worlds while staying true to their internal logic.

Something I just want to add because I don't mention it in the video is that Lady Danbury continues to be awesome.
