Review: Developed by Shonda Rhimes, “Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story” is a spinoff that explores the racial and emotional tensions at work in the marriage of Queen Charlotte and King George III
isn’t exactly “Downton Abbey,” or Coca-Cola, but it is certainly a brand, one poised to provide ample opportunities for prequels, sequels, different flavors and, to judge by “Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story,” even a diet option, if storylines had calories. The original series, based on Julia Quinn’s fanciful period novels, has thus far been Royalty Lite, but has included a colony’s worth of characters, many of whom could be the subject of their own spinoffs. Endless refills, one might say.
“Queen Charlotte,” developed by star producer Shonda Rhimes, concerns the imperious sovereign who ruled over the first two seasons of the original “Bridgerton” and has reason to be tart: Her husband, George III, is mad. Her feckless son is running the country. And she distracts herself by manipulating the social hierarchy, atop which she presides with her outlandish headpieces aspiring further heavenward, like the spires on a cathedral.
