The reviews begin, and the title of this article is “Soapier, Smarter, and Swoonier… the Final Season Soars! Read more at Decider by Meghan O’Keefe about Sanditon Season 3. Almost every Sanditon character, new and returning, gets a taste of romance in the show’s final season. Sanditon Season 3 isContinue Reading
Absolutely wonderful review, especially about Colbourne and Ben Lloyd-Hughes performance. Well written, and spot on! He plays him as a tortured, thoughtful, sensitive, intellectual – he is Mr Darcy and Rochester incarnate – the flawed romantic hero with a rare cloak of vulnerability, authenticity and impetuous romanticism. He is handsome,Continue Reading
Balls are savored and wildflowers gathered. Women contend with worries that lead them to hard realizations of their limitations. “Perhaps I will have to forgo my darning circle!” a concerned lady about town sighs. Second season showrunner Justin Young and the rest of the writing team take the opportunity affordedContinue Reading
At risk of internet harassment, Sidney was terrible.

Sanditon keeps being a great escapist show that transports you to the rugged coastal town so that you can obsess for an hour or two about balls, tea service and which is the right dress to wear to any given occasion. Plus, you don’t need to fear if things endContinue Reading
Rather soapy in its one-darned-thing-after-another storytelling, “Sanditon” is engaging, if a bit lightweight. When the series approaches more substantial topics — as in Georgiana’s complicated awareness that being Black and an heiress makes her something of an outsider, and her call for a sugar boycott and the abolition of slaveryContinue Reading
Allison Keene from Paste wrote an extensive review about Season 2. But lo! With Season 2, Sanditon is reborn in six episodes that seem to ask, “you want Austen? Well then I’ll give you Austen!!” Often a pastiche of well-worn tropes and some very familiar plots lifted straight from PrideContinue Reading
