Bridgeton really opening doors for all races to play a part in british fictional period drama and i love it

Don’t you want me to be Happy? 😂😂😂 I want you to be Rich and Safe😂😂😂 best reply ever

Here we go again, but at least it's a fictional story instead of a historical character. Henry Fielding would be sayin "What the ----?" in a 18th century manner. Queen Charlotte would be saying "At least it wasn't me this time", but she forgot about the new Netflix "Queen Charlotte, a Bridgerton Story."

I don't know. The best part of Tom Jones is the humor and it doesn't seem like they kept it in.

here we go again

It's not unusual to be loved by someone

Yes! Thank you! This looks so beautiful and the casting looks divine!

HANNAH WADDINGHAM! I am so ready to fall in love with and fawn over Lady Bellaston! 👏🏻😍

It looks like they're ripped the comedy right out of it.

Next week The Rosa Parks story staring Dame Judy Dench

Bridgerton, Mr Malcolm’s List, Sanditon and Now Tom Jones ? Okay regency era is giving everyone a chance to shine.❤

🎼🎵🎶It's not usual....🎶🎵🎼

You'll never beat the bbc version in the 90s! That was great! 😂

Love Hannah Waddingham aka Rebecca from Ted Lasso so really excited for this one!

Just channel surfed and came across this. Love it. Enjoyed it. I watched the Albert Finney version lots and this new masterpiece version will be a new favorite😊.

I think it is still mixed content. All creatures great and small is family friendly. Also, some shows like Ms Scarlet and the Duke might be appropriate for teenagers.

Wow I am gripped by the trailer and looking forward to more!

he be looking like everyones' tom jones in this trailer

Good morning 🌹☕🇩🇪 Wonderful 👍🔥🔥

More excellent period dramas, I can't wait! :)

I love this

this political accuracy is beyond ridiculous.. Indians, blacks portrayed as old British aristocrats...? how would blacks react IF a completely white woman casted as Queen Sheeba then..? it goes both ways,

I love period dramas, this one seems funny, climatic and a heart throb.

U made me more likely to c the old Verizon for free at the river forest Illinois public library tomorrow, thx

1:49 looks like the setting where in Bridgerton they played croquet.

I think I'll read the book instead.

Which Streaming in Brazil are you going to?

One character is most certainly miscast.

Sanditon is back in March but no long promo yet....?????

Love the book.

This has been the most chaotic love story ever🤣. Something went left with the skript. If you know u know.

I saw "Tom Jones," a great Oscar winning Best film, a classic. Don't need to see it remade. But, there are still so many great historical novels and other british works that have never been filmed; please do some of those instead of all the remakes! You've even done remakes of your own previous series! I wish Masterpiece would stop with the remakes already, especially when there were already definitive examples and of such high quality. We didn't need another Little Women or Dr. Zhivago. Every remake of a classic that has already been more than adequately done that I've seen on Masterpiece has paled by comparison and been largely forgettable. And then, on the other hand, you give us excellent more modern series like "Home Fires," or "My Mother and Other Strangers," or 'The Amazing Mrs. Pritchard" and end them after only a single season (or two at most) ON A CLIFFHANGER! Ugh. When did brit tv become so demographic and ratings driven like u.s. tv? That's what made so many of us give up on u.s. tv and turn to brit tv in the first place. BTW, I've been watching Masterpiece (Theater) since the very beginning, since "The First Churchills" and "Upstairs, Downstairs."

Do yourselves a favour. Watch the 1997 BBC series with Max Beesley and Samanthan Morton. It's peerless and cannot be bettered.

I'm so look forward to this 😃

Joseph Andrews would be a better adaptation. That is too by Henry Fielding.

I saw the BBC one long time ago I wonder who is going to play Honour miss Sofia's maid as it was played by kathy Burke. I wonder if there is going to have a Henry Fielding telling the story too .

🤣

I feel like I watched the whole movie 🎦

Came here thinking this was about the actual singing legend, “Tom Jones” now I’m disappointed.

I’m looking forward to watching this

Um... Is ANY of the dialog in this miniseries taken from the book?

So they're making Cassanova a series?

I cannot wait !!!

Very easy Nora Robards books

Can’t wait !

Thank god there is a stunning version of Fielding's novel done in film in1963. Fielding must be weeping in his grave at the liberties taken with his novel in this series.

…. This looks pretty much exactly like belle… with maybe the exception of the girl actually being legitimate.

So predictable

Isn't Solly McLeod from HotD?

Really wonderful adaptation of marvellous classic

Where is the full episode???? How can i watch it?

Get your hands off Henry Fielding, for God's sake

"You don't want to give your heart to a bad boy." Ah. I see "diversity" means we also dumb down the dialog. Delightful. Is there.. anywhere within.. a shred of Henry Fielding's masterpiece?

Dido Elizabeth belle has entered the chat. A real person. Sarah forbes bonetta was real. Alexandre dumas was real. Sighs No one says anything about a century of white washed motion pictures. C'est la vie. I cannot wait to watch this. And the new series/season of sanditon.

I LOVE THIS BOOK IM SO EXCITED

I fall in love for Tom Jones ✨😭😭💖

I’ll be watching

What a bland Tom Jones. The old Albert Finney version still has it.

...great romantic sexy phenomena, incredibly beautiful masterpiece, watched movie breathless, completely magnetized by loveliness and enchantment, thank you, love ❤️ you...

I'll find a way to watch it!!!

Oh lovely. Gonna be watching this, for sure. But why all the way April tho? I want it now...

I wonder, once again, how any adaptation of Tom Jones gets around the rape.

Where do i watch this?

Looks like the poor's man Bridgerton.

Wow I want to watch this!

Looks good but why do we always have to add unnecessary sex scenes to everything!

I have to wait until April, why tease me like this?

Please stop.....

Dang I have to wait to April🫣🥺

Yeah I’m watching

Yasss can’t wait💛💛💛

Quando e por onde vai lançar essa maravilha???❤️

Disgraceful

Yes thank you !!😍👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿💯💖💖💖

i have to wait until april??? oh noooo

Really looking forward to this! The casting is phenomenal! ❤

It has always been itself since the 70s. Mature

SIGN ME UP!!!!!

I love it! I expect to watch this new series in France.

Well well well , you must believe i will be watching

i love you masterpiece; never stop

Super excited!

Oooo

Sorry but the original one with Albert Finney and Susannah York was the true classic and didn't need another version. This version along with Bridgerton are IMHO big $#%%ing jokes. Waste of time.

What is this bull***? Black women in Somerset then? With west country accents? Don't make me laugh.

Pathetic. always mixing political and leaving the art aside.

Am I the only one who dislikes this "color blind" casting. I'd absolutely LOVE to see more stories of people of color in historical settings that goes beyond slavery. But to randomly change the race of someone devoid of historical context or even MENTIONING it, is useless. I love how they did it in Sanditon where she doesn't just happen to be black, her blackness is part of her identity, which is how it should be. If show runners want to add POC to historical shows like Bridgerton, which is basically a fantasy and a farce then great. But if you want me to talk your movie/show seriously then by doing this you're literally shooting yourself in the foot.

MORE Blackwashing? No thanks. I'll wait for the upcoming Shaka Zulu biography....starring Ryan Gosling.

I watched the original Tom Jones on television a few years back, and really enjoyed it. I think this version will be equally lovely to watch and I look forward to it when it is on PBS. I really love the fact that it is an interracial cast as I am a member of an interracial upbringing.

When is the Malcom X movie coming out starring Christopher Bale?

i really dont like the modern interpretation of period drama which seems to be coming around more often, i so love it when it is period correct in clothing, the manner of the actors in the way they speak and conduct themselves so we can truly get a feel for the past, i will not be watching Tom Jones

Black people are 3% of the British population today and 0% (rounded) in the 18th century. Why are they astronomically overrepresented in all forms of media?

Looks great..

April 😢

Bloody hell...its Wokerton mark 2. Was looking forward to this when it was anounced.....and now.....hmmm sigh

Tired of seeing these period dramas that ignore slavery by casting inclusive actors. In those times it would have been unheard to socialize or be seen with someone of color. This isn’t what historically happened the producers just seem the ignore the issue as though slavery never occurred in those times. Its totally wrong because the next generation will see this and think its accurate rather than read in books. You cant pretend that past didn’t happen and just throw in beautiful scenery and costumes like nothing to depict everything was grand which it wasn’t. You look at Roots and North & South that showed the real dark ugliness of humanity. Those miniseries were historically accurate. Slavery was no different than in North America or Europe it was a globally social disease to civilization. Ignoring it here is just tragic.

Glad to see that this abomination bombed as hard as all the other recent woke "reimaginings"

No apt for minors! what happened to PBS??

This looks beautiful

No match to the Tony Richardson film. Better yet: read the very long novel yourself; it is hilarious, especially the narrator.
