OF course, I haven’t seen Bridgerton. If there’s a loop, I’ll be out of it. A curve? I’ll be behind it. Yet this wretched, somehow irritating, name keeps coming up in the kind of columns that keep their finger on the cultural pulse rather than up the columnar nose. If you are similarly out of the l. or behind the c., let me explain that Bridgerton is not to be confused with Bridgeton, the fragrant and genteel Glasgow suburb. The name is fake, which is why it rankles. It’s the setting for, and title of, a Netflix television series set among the English aristocracy in the Regency period. How many of my buttons is it pressing so far? Correct: zero.
