Listen, I'm not making excuses for Anthony's behaviour in Season 1. But imagine trying to run a household, and one day you come home to all this.
trying to watch Bridgerton in my sitting room but this room has got roughly five windows, two of them coming from the ceiling, and it's just. it's not working. there are SO MANY dark scenes where all i can see is a pretty pink dress and some candles. "Who's that on screen?" my dad asks and i cannot reply. I do not know. i cant see their face. its a never ending struggle. supernatural. the walking dead. the vampire diaries. merlin. supernatural again. every single tv show has scenes that you just cant watch during the day, even with the curtains closed and of course they happen to be slap bang in the middle of an interesting episode or the like
I'm gagging.
Jandojebajyojebwjoejchbebsjjynxndjsj!!!!!
God created men and then sent Luke Newton as an apology.
I CALLED OVER A YEAR AGO THAT BENOPHIE WOULD BE THE NEXT BRIDGERTON SEASON. I WAS SO RIGHT!
Spoilers for Bridgerton 3x08 under the cut
THIS IS BETTER THAN ANYTHING I THOUGHT WOULD HAPPEN. MY FRIEND AND I HAD A FEELING THAT WE'D SEE MICHAEL, BUT MICHAELA??????? I LOVE HER SO MUCH.
SHE SAID JUST HER NAME AND FRAN WAS HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOVE. I CAN'T WAIT FOR HER STRUGGLE WITH HER FEELINGS, BOTH BEING BI AND BEING IN LOVE WITH HER HUSBAND'S COUSIN.
@playydohh I misremembered the scene at the end of romancing Mr Bridgerton, but at the end, Colin and Pen reveal Whistledown's identity, which was the whole idea behind this tease. It doesn't have to be Polin, but Bridgerton at the very least.
I’m sorry, but if at the end of Bridgerton S3 doesn’t have Pen and Colin hosting a masquerade ball and Benedict dancing with a woman in silver and her running away at the end of the episode and her butler/maid friend asks her; “Everything alright, Miss Beckett?” and then the episode cuts to black. I. Will. Riot.
The only bad thing about my timezone is that I've had a full day (and have more to go) and season 3 isn't out yet already!!
I've been seeing this all day, and I cannot stress how excited I am.
It's so beautiful and yet so annoying!! I want them to meet already and form some kind of connection.
Philoise is my weakness, honestly
I feel like at the end of Bridgerton season 3, or when Pen and Colin FINALLY marry, we'll see Phillip Crane at the Polin wedding, due to the fact that Colin and Phillip really hit it off and most likely became friends. So most likely at the wedding reception, Phillip will be by himself (as his wife did not wish to come to the wedding or she did) and he catches Eloise's eye, who then starts talking with him as she has been badgered by her mother for 2 years now to find a husband, and this man seems somewhat interesting, as he himself is a wallflower (quite unusual for a man). The two start talking and he informs her that he's from Pen's side of the family (via marriage) but Colin invited him to the wedding. They exchange address and start corresponding.

Just RSVPd to this, knowing fully well that I will have to stay up until 1am on a school night to do this, and I will most likely get in trouble.
The Bridgerton's had always been expected to end up in love matches, everyone from the Queen herself to Lady Whistledown believed this. Such a shame that everyone was wrong.
Inspired by @thekatebridgerton 's au where the Bridgerton siblings don't get their happily ever afters, but get sent back in time to Daphne's debut and get a second chance. (this was made with her permission.)
So, I know we all remember that ICONIC scene of Queen Charlotte talking to her children in 1x01 (I think), well, my school nurse had to give a sex assembly to the grade 11s and the way she started it off was saying; "alright, I would like to start with a little exercise, virgins to the right of my, everyone else to the left of me." everyone burst out laughing.
Also, I don’t want Marina’s death to be at the beginning of the Philoise season, I don’t want it to be framed as a selfish woman leaving behind a husband and twin children, I don’t want her death to be the “freedom” for Phillip to get to be happy, I don’t want her death to be character development for Phillip to pay attention to his kids or some other bullshit.
What I want is for Marina to go happily. What I want is Marina to say goodbye to her children and make them promise to be good. What I want is Phillip to mourn Marina, not as his wife, but as a companion, the love of his brother’s life, and the mother of his adopted children. What I want is Phillip to take his time in finding Eloise, to find love, but still visit Marina’s grave once a month and tell her children all about their mum and their dad and how much their parents loved them and he loves them.
I am a simple person, I want Shondaland and Netflix to handle a woman’s suicide in a gentle way and not as a plot device or disgrace Marina, I want Marina to find peace. Marina deserves to go how she wants to go.
I’m sorry, but if at the end of Bridgerton S3 doesn’t have Pen and Colin hosting a masquerade ball and Benedict dancing with a woman in silver and her running away at the end of the episode and her butler/maid friend asks her; “Everything alright, Miss Beckett?” and then the episode cuts to black.

if the devil saw israel he would hand over his throne.
So I finally had a day off and could wacth season 3 of Bridgerton and oh.my.god. AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.So three things before I get into the meat of it. First of all, I sincerely hope that Violet and Lady Danburys brother get a chance to connect more MAMA VIOLET DESERVES LOVE TOO! Seecond the fact that Anthony cannottt keep his hands off Kate is so hilarious to me like get awf that lady and let her breathe. And third Francesa being a subtle autism rep is so amazing to me, as an autizzy person myself seeing someone with the same mannerisms as me within a romance setting is so refreshing like it truly puts joy in my heart. And also the sign language in the first episode???? love itttttt, they truly perfected diversity without shoehorning it.
Now to the meattttttt of it.
Now friends to lovers has never personally been my thing and in terms of each bridgerton show im gonna rank this leason my second least favorite but thats NOT to say I dont like it I very much enjoyed this season but i do have my critiques.
1
While I get a giggle out of Pen's sisters I cannot stand her family as a whole, for the simple fact that they treat her as if no one would EVER want her just because she plus sized and has "odd interest" in their words, it infuriated me how her mother wanted Pen to say yes not because she was happy for her but because she truly thought this would be Pen's only chance. Despite my disliking her family it was a good plot point for her to finally decide to make a change and put herself out there. I feel like in her previous two seaons for her she didnt put herself out there because, as weve seen, she has a huge lack of confidence that it was more than likely the work of her mothers and her sisters doing. I also loveeee the wardrobe change from bright gaudy colors and patterns to more Bridgerton esqe colors in her wardrobe. The wardrobe in Bridgerton has always amazed me but putting Pen in that light blue was amazinggg she was gorgeous and glowing. Even her sisters were eating this season like props to wardrobe and makeup bc they ate. Im so worried to see whats going to happen when Collin eventually finds out shes lady whistle down like omgggg.

I don't hate Eloise and Cressida NOW HEAR ME OUT OKAY. Cressida is still not a good person at all but I'm so glad we got to see more of her character bc it definitely shed light into why she acts that way. It would be completely ignorant to sit there and believe that the pressures of the ton to be perfect and find husbands quickly and avoid scandal WOULDNT make the girls get a little nasty with each other. The pressure from her parents specifically made me go "Oh girl I think id get nasty too if those were my folks." In no way does it excuse her treatment of Pen tho!! I also liked that it was Cressida who clocked Eloise's tea about her pointing fingers immediately at her when Pen got exsposed. Not to mention when the girlies came to Cressida for tea SISTA DID NOT FOLD!!!! She politely said naur and kept it pushing. Like I understand Cressida was neverrr the nicest and was a gossip but if Eloise decided to hang around her then she shoulda had faith in the girl. Like Eloise I love you but doooo betterrrr. Don't get me wrong at all yall Eloise is my fav but I'm glad people are clocking her for her shittt. I hope Cressida and Elosie stay friends but they constantly build off of each other to be better bc I loved how Eloise made her dislike of Cressida's treatment towards Pen known.

This is so unrelated but i love bennedict BAD hes sooooo idk yall I need him.

COLLIN BRIDGERTON IM HERE TO CLOCK YOUR TEA.
Imma be real I might be bitter bc I feel like Pen shoulda made that man grovel. After what he said about her to his friends in the previous season he should have been on his hands and knees BEGGING for her forgiveness she let him off too easy. Also I don't really appreciate that it took another man giving Pen attention for his stupid ass to finally be like "Oh shed kinda bad actually." I ALSO don't like how when he described how he liked Pen as a friend it wasn't because of her actual qualities it was how she made HIM feel. "You're always here to listen to me and give me a new perspective!" Sir you could have just said she was very insightful, you enjoy her company SOMETHING other than a service she has done for you. That why Im glad he was suffering so bad every time he saw them together he was SICK to his stomach and I'm here for it.
All in all I cant wait to see how things go down next bc I think everyine is gonna reap what they sow Pen, Collin, Eloise EVERYONE. bc the sneak peak looked crazyyyyyy.
Anyways the next thing I should post will be the Finnal Gambit the last book in the trilogy of the hawthorn legacy series.
See yall later!
I Write Sins Not Tradgedies would be the perfect song for a Bridgerton episode. It's literally about being caught in a scandalous position that rouines a wedding
Benedict Bridgerton is a chaotic bisexual that has ny heart.
