Ep 20 In Conversation with Gemma Burgess
Join Cass and Deb as they chat with Gemma Burgess, the showrunner and executive producer of "My Lady Jane!" Your Rational Romantics hosts update you on the world of the Bridgerverse, including some whiplash around a rumored second season of Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story. Then they dive into the interview with Gemma, who reveals the casting process for the iconic Jane and Guildford in Emily Bader and Edward Bluemel, as well as reveals behind-the-scenes details (a cut clandestine handy under the table that distracted from the attempted poisoning, anyone?), and has some fabulous laughs as the ladies chat about this phenomenal show. And while their disappointment that "My Lady Jane" wasn't renewed for a Season Two is palpable, Gemma helps ease the pain a bit by revealing some MAJOR plot points that were coming if they had gotten to continue. A year after "My Lady Jane" aired, this gem of a show, and this gem of a showrunner, are still delivering.
