The Courtship

The Courtship is SUPER entertaining and well-done. Think about throwing a ton of attractive men into Bridgerton, Emma, Pride & Prejudice, etc, and see how well they can court one beautiful eligible woman. I don't watch dating shows, so I'm assuming it follows the same dramatic framework as most...only it's in a castle on incredible grounds, with incredible costumes, and regency-type activities that showcase a gentleman's skills and etiquette. I also love having the family be part of the process because seeing how the suitors interact with them is really telling...and creates more sexual tension when the family is gone and everyone gets to let loose. I think the show must have been marketed terribly from the start, because I can't imagine why it's not getting more praise.

Like "The Bachelorette", this reality show is about bachelors competing for and wooing a beautiful, single female. But there are differences.

"The Courtship" sets the action in the Regency Era, with appropriate customs and manners. Also, the family of the bachelorette accompanies her and is involved in the winnowing of her suitors. Just having them on the premises changes the tone from a hottub-cocktail, club atmosphere to a more sensible undertaking.

I really appreciate that the producers selected men who are serious at getting serious with the lady. And there is a tone of civility between the men. Watching is like viewing a period rom-com involving characters you like.

The premise of the show is finding true romantic love and happiness. That's not what this show gives you. It's cheesy and boring. But however, this is better than Tinder and all of those stupid dating tv shows.

I love the premise of the show. But I'm not entirely sure she was serious about finding love.

It seemed to me she went for the guys that have nothing in common with her. Which is fine for a "fling" , perhaps she got blinded by there attractiveness. She's going to have a terrible time finding love is this is how she chooses men. There was one suitor who was attractive and safe- and she went the other way- several times. It seems at the end - without any spoilers. She practically forced the guy to make her a proposal. That was really forced, I almost felt bad for him.

6-10 ....could of been a 10 - if she was serious!

Ms. Remy and her family are so sweet and classy!! She and her family are very deep. They aren't trivial or shallow. Also, they are dead serious about wanting the best husband for Ms. Remy. She deserves love!! I love how these guys are really trying to win her heart!!
