The third season of Netflix’s hit Regency Period show, Bridgerton, dropped on May 13, 2024. Based on Julia Quinn’s fourth book in the Bridgerton series, Romancing Minster Bridgerton, the season covers the love story between Colin and Penelope. Season three got a new show-runner, Jess Brownell, after the former show-runner, Chris Van Dusen, stepped down after season two.

Unlike previous seasons, the audience already knew these characters prior to the leading a season. So we already know who Penelope is, her home life, and her secrets.

However, there is still room for character growth and Penelope’s goal is to find a husband. She undergoes a make-over with a new wardrobe and hair styles. Gone of the citrus tones of the past and now she wears mainly blues and greens – mostly soft or muted tones.

This post is an overhaul of my article that was originally on hubpages which ranked Penelope’s season three costumes.

Despite the show being called Bridgerton, it starts with the Featheringtons. The Featheringtons are the neighbors of the Bridgertons and have a major presence throughout the show, especially since one them has a secret identity as the show’s gossipy writer/narrator, Lady Whistledown.

The gossip monger and impressive lady of business is really the unassuming youngest child of the Featheringtons Penelope, who might come off like “an insipid wallflower,” but she’s actually astute, observant, well-read, and witty. She is also hopeless in love with Colin Bridgerton and best friends with Eloise Bridgerton at the start of season one.

Written by Julia Quinn, The Bridergeton Book series spans eight books set in Regency England (1813-1827.) Each book tells the love story of a different Bridgerton sibling and each feature some sort of romantic trope, like fake-dating, enemies to lover to name a few.

The book series got a surge in popularity after being adapted into a Netflix show in 2020. It’s currently in their fourth season, adapting the third book with two addition seasons currently in preproduction. The show adaptations of the books are quite different and has a more ensemble cast with many sub-plots and added characters.

But the real question is which one of the book in the series is considered “The Best?” Which is the worse? And which ones are in the top four and which ones are in the bottom four?
