“It’s one of my favorite tropes of the romance genre,” Chris said of exploring this storyline. “And I think that’s because there’s just so much conflict there that’s inherent in that trope that we got to mine. The two of them, Anthony and Kate, they get to verbally spar with each other all through the season.”
He praised the season two leads for being “so good at that kind of thing,” defending that this back-and-forth allowed for the “frustration” to build for the characters.
But did it build for the viewers? Respectfully, we would’ve liked to have seen the couple get together sooner than later.
Decide for yourself and watch season two of Bridgerton, which is now available on Netflix.
