Can You Spot the Bridgerton Connection in This Netflix Comedy?

Netflix is the home to countless comedies, but some stand out more than others. Crashing, a Channel 4 mini-series, found a home on Netflix — and a whole new audience. With only six episodes in a single season, few people would have heard about the mini-series, which was released in 2016. Short, binge-able, and hugely funny, Crashing comes from the familiar and brilliant mind of Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

The show charts the journeys of six people in their 20s who have decided to become property guardians of an abandoned hospital wing. With minimal rent and a large space, these six acquaintances manage to make this arrangement work, which is also a cheeky commentary on the cost of living crisis. However, their convoluted and wild lives keep the show interesting as they crash and burn against each other, inevitably. Each character is a chaotic ball of energy that brings their own troubles, traumas, prejudices, and quirks to the forefront, often resulting in relentless hilarity. Crashing’s characters may face constant conflict, but they were very much like a dysfunctional family that could never be put right and shares a surprising connection with another chaotic family from Bridgerton.
