[Warning: Spoilers ahead!]
Spring has arrived, and so has the new season of "Bridgerton"! The hotly anticipated Season 2 tells the passionate love story of another family member within the Bridgerton clan, this time focusing on the eldest brother Anthony, played by Jonathan Bailey. If you recall from last season, Anthony’s entanglement with an opera singer led him to start looking for a wife to fulfill his duties as the Viscount. But although he isn’t looking for love, he finds it in the form of Kate Sharma, played by Simone Ashley. The enemies-to-lovers storyline, combined with development in other "Bridgerton" storylines, is completely addicting to watch.
Here are some of the moments that kept us pressing play on Season 2!
1. The Horse Riding Scene
Riding a horse when meeting the love of your life is a very Jane Austen moment — something that Kate and Anthony channel when they meet the first time in the woods. The chemistry between the two is noticeable from the start. What really seals the deal is Anthony being visibly flustered by Kate’s sass -- and taking the time to respond in kind.

2. Literally All of Kathony’s Argument Scenes
Like I said earlier, the best part of Kathony is the endless bickering between them. The give and take between the two characters is what makes their relationship so special, especially in an era where men and women are supposed to keep their distance from each other.

3. Our Lord & Savior Newton
When the angst is getting real and our main couple keeps refusing to be a couple, there is one ray of sunshine that keeps everything together: Newton. The loveable Newton is the Sharma’s pet dog and is possibly the most adorable Corgi to ever grace our screens. While Lady Danbury isn’t fond of him, he serves as perfect comic relief.

4. Eloise Realizing Who Penelope REALLY Is
Eloise has been on the hunt to figure out who Lady Whistledown is since Season 1. But after Whistledown exposes Eloise's relationship with a commoner, she is less than happy to find out that the gossip queen is actually her bff, Penelope Featherington. The altercation that ensues is less than pleasant, leading fans to wonder if the two will ever be friends again!

5. "The Bane Of My Existence"
I know the line. You know the line. And we all LOVE the line. Anthony’s confession to Kate gives us Darcy vibes, and it really fits in with their back-and-forth relationship. “I burn for you” is about to have some serious competition when it comes to the most quotable romantic Bridgerton lines!
Darcy said “you’ve bewitched me body and soul “
