What is The Courtship on NBC about?

Move aside, Bachelorette! We got a new dating show in town and it’s one that period piece lovers are sure to be ecstatic about!

The Courtship is NBC‘s newest dating series that has everyone talking. Not only is the show super fun and unique in its premise but it’s also super refreshing, paying homage to a moment in history when dating was the most extravagant affair in society.

If this show sounds like something you want to tune in to as soon as possible, then you’ve come to the right place because we’re here to tell you all about what The Courtship is about. Check it out, here!

The Courtship synopsis

The Courtship is a rather regal competition series where 15 handsome bachelors pull out their very best moves to secure one beautiful maiden’s heart. However, these men are in for a shock when they find out they must throw out everything they know about modern dating and trade it in for a much-needed lesson in courting classics.

The official synopsis via NBC, here:

"A heroine looking for her duke will sign up for the ultimate social experiment in romance. Transported to a Regency-style England, a group of eligible hopeful suitors will have to win the heart of our heroine, and her court. […] . In the end, our heroine and her suitors will discover if the ultimate romantic experience will find them true love."

Which man will rise above the rest? Which will sink? You’ll have to see to find out. But, until then, check out the official trailer for The Courtship, here.

Don’t worry, you’re not the only one who thinks this 2022 series resembles Bridgerton! But the good news is, if you love Lady Whistledown as much as we do, then this show is certainly going to be a great substitution while you wait for the Netflix series’ second season.

We hope that we were able to properly convince you to watch this new competition series. If so, catch brand new episodes of The Courtship every Sunday at 8:00 p.m. ET on NBC. You’re going to love it!
