Bridgerton stars left 'angry and horrified' after sex scenes from the racy Netflix show end up on porn sites
UK Daily Mail ^ | January 17, 2020 | Bryony Jewell

Netflix is reportedly fighting to keep raunchy sex scenes from Bridgerton off porn websites, after the news distressed castmembers.

The streaming giant, which released the hit series on Christmas Day, is thought to be 'working tirelessly to hunt down pirates' who have uploaded the more intimate moments from the show, reports The Sun.

It is understood that many of the scenes have already been taken down from X-rated platforms after the cast - which includes Phoebe Dynevor and Regé-Jean Page - were left feeling 'horror and anger' at seeing them online.

There is a reason this adaptation is nicknamed Bonkerton.

Apparently these actors are morons. Which doesn’t set them apart much from actors in general. With some exceptions.

They were “shocked, shocked, there is voyeurism going on in this internet”.

Yeah, shows like Bridgerton are little more than attempts to mainstream explicit porn into general public media under the guise of artistic freedom and breaking through boundaries. In the good old days, kids hid their soft core porn from mom and dad under the bed. Now kids watch much more explicit porn with mom and dad in the living room after dinner.

In high resolution, 4K video on a larger than life size big screen TV.

Progress, I guess.

What horrified them was the loss of royalties ...

So the actors are OK with streaming these sex scenes on Netflix, but when the exact same scene is streamed on another site it makes them feel "horror and anger"?

I don't quite follow that.

Someone does a nude scene/sex scene in a tv show or movie, yeah, logically, its going to end up else where on the internet.

after the news distressed castmembers.

Translation: Castmembers were distressed that their scenes are being uploaded to Russian porn sites that will not pay them a royalty.

Sounds like a publicity stunt to me.

None of the sex scenes in Bridgerton were explicit enough to warrant uploading to a porn site. There are sites that manipulate images to make realistic looking fakes but, sexwise, it would be like uploading your kid’s youth soccer league game to the FiFa channel, kind of pointless.

Methinks they protest too much- all the way home from the press agent's office.

Yes, that’s probably it. News about actors, the original fake news.

Early in the series, I thought I could watch this with my nine year old granddaughter. I don’t think so. The porn added nothing to the series. Besides, we all know that oral sex on a winding staircase looks like more fun than it actually is.

What were they looking for on line that made them see them?

Mama said don’t do nothing you wouldn’t want anyone else to see....

"artistic freedom and breaking through boundaries."

I remember the first time I heard the "F" word on the big screen.. It was Barbra Streisand that said it. She said it was a great leap forward..(?)

When I was young my language could make a sailor blush. But now, I realize that cursing is just a weak mind trying to sound forceful..

At times of exasperation I'm still given to the less offensive four letter words.. :(

These “news” articles are just press manipulations to get people to watch the series. Nothing more, nothing less.

“I don’t quite follow that.”

That’s probably because you are a rational thinker. You gotta keep in mind porn actors and actors in general are lefties and lefties are not rational thinkers. They think with their emotions.

I remember the time my kids called me out on saying the “S-word”.

“Um - I don’t think so, but perhaps?” (It wasn’t my go-to swear word, under my breath.)

“No Dad - I’ve heard you!”

“Really? When?”

“With the dog!”

“The dog?”

“Yeah - when you call him, um...; S-T-U-P-I-D”.

.
.
.
“Oh. You’re right. I shouldn’t call him that - I’m sorry, and I’ll watch what I say from now on. I mean, as dog’s go - he’s actually pretty smart!”
