Nicola Coughlan as Penelope in Bridgerton and Zosia Mamet as Pampinea in The Decameron.
Summary While Bridgerton takes a hiatus between seasons 3 and 4, Netflix is releasing a new TV series that is seemingly similar to Shonda Rhimes' popular period drama but is actually very different. The historical romance show, created by Chris Van Dusen, is based on Julia Quinn's book series of the same name and follows the lives of the Bridgerton family.
The Decameron's Source Material Is Nothing Like Bridgerton's Period Drama Giovanni Boccaccio's Collection Of Short Stories Was Written In The 14th Century Netflix is set to release all eight episodes of The Decameron on Thursday, July 25, 2024. While The Decameron appears to be as raunchy as Bridgerton based on its trailer and occurs in a different time as opposed to the present day, viewers shouldn't expect it to be exactly like the historical romance series.
The Decameron takes place in 1348 in Florence, Tuscany, at the height of the bubonic plague, aka the Black Death. The TV show's story follows a group of wealthy nobles and their servants as they quarantine in a countryside villa as the disease is killing countless Europeans. At first glance, one wouldn't think that Netflix's new show The Decameron is a comedy.
1 When The Decameron Is Set Compared To Bridgerton The Decameron Takes Place Hundreds Of Years Before Bridgerton Close As mentioned above, The Decameron is set during the mid-1300s while the Black Death is rapidly spreading across Europe. So, the 14th-century medieval black comedy takes place almost 500 years before Bridgerton's timeline. The historical romance show begins in the early 1810s, with Colin and Penelope's love story in season 3 occurring around 1815.
