What Time Does Bridgerton Come Out
Bridgerton Season 4, Part 2 premieres on Thursday, Feb. 26 at 3 a. m. ET / 12 a. m. PT on Netflix, with four episodes that bring the total for Season 4 to eight. For those still asking what time does bridgerton come out, the streamer set the release time as 3 a. m. ET for the new installment.
Benedict and Sophie’s story picks up where Part 1 left off
Season 4 continues the Regency-era tale centered on Luke Thompson’s Benedict Bridgerton and Yerin Ha’s Sophie Baek, following the shocking end of Part 1 in which Benedict suggested Sophie become his mistress and she ran off. Sophie, revealed as Sophie Beckett — the illegitimate daughter of an earl who was forced into servitude by a cruel stepmother after her father’s death — rejects the proposal, insisting that "being a mistress is the last thing I would ever want. "
The second half opens with the pair’s dynamic shifting: Benedict finally voices a long-building declaration that lands in the closing moments of episode five and culminates in the couple’s first intimate moment. The story threads carried into Part 2 include Benedict’s search for a masked "Lady in Silver" after a masquerade, the white glove clue she left behind, a rescue from drunken men during a rainstorm, a recovering scene at Benedict’s nearby cottage, a kiss by a lake, and Sophie later being hired as a maid in the Bridgerton household at Benedict’s request.
Stars turn out at BFI Southbank photocall and screening

Trailer, themes and viewing details
A first-look trailer dropped earlier this month and was described as packed with "three hot-under-the-collar romps, " showing Benedict and Sophie growing closer after the maid fled following a staircase romp and Benedict’s request that she be his mistress.
