Netflix fans 'can't stop watching' new series as they claim it's better than Bridgerton'

Dearest readers, as the social season eagerly anticipates the return of Bridgerton , a new gem has debuted on Netflix - and it's captivating audiences everywhere. The Lady's Companion, a sumptuous Spanish period drama set in the bustling city of Madrid during the 1880s, is quickly becoming the talk of the town among streaming aficionados. This series is charming Bridgerton enthusiasts by filling the void with its own blend of romance, sharp wit, and delicious scandal.

Centered around Elena Bianda, Madrid's most coveted chaperone, The Lady's Companion follows her as she deftly orchestrates matches for society's young ladies, boasting over 20 successful engagements to her name. However, her latest endeavor proves to be more challenging than anticipated. Summoned to the grand Mencía estate to steer three sisters toward advantageous unions, Elena's strategy veers into forbidden territory as she unexpectedly falls for Santiago - a gentleman destined for one of her charges.



Suddenly, she finds herself ensnared in a web of passion, deception, and high-society intrigue. Since its release on March 28, this romantic comedy-drama has swiftly ensnared viewers, with many admitting to indulging in marathon viewing sessions late into the night. Social media platforms are abuzz with praise for the show.

The show has viewers hooked, as confessed by one individual: "It's almost 2 AM and I'm on the last episode, I cant stop.

" The addiction to the drama is real, evidenced by a passionate fan's extreme reaction: "If this show doesn't get a second season I will burn this entire world to the ground! ! ! !".
