I know, otherwise it’s like “and this season, once again one of the Bridgertons gets married but no one else in the ton does” :joy:

And we’ve had so many characters kind of in a holding pattern since season 1 that it’s getting unrealistic lol

Yep.

Real life: eh, that happens.
Books/tv: hey writers, what’s up with that? Why did you do that?

I wonder if it is because she is so heavily made up! Make up = looks older. She’s perfectly cast as far as family resemblance but I agree about age

Eta: she is 29 :joy:

Also I know it isn’t realistic (buy what is in bridgerton) but I get some strong sapphic vibes from Eloise and Cressida

You 2 and the whoooole of threads.

We know Eloise’s endgame (i dont know there’s a direct reference but I believe its fairly well set the Bridgertons are being matched as per books). But daaaamn i wonder how they’ll play the tension and if it was accidental from the actors :rofl:

This makes it hard for me to root for anyone to win Francesca’s heart!

So I finally watched it and my 2 favorite lines of the show:

“You’d already be dead.”
“Inserts himself… Inserts himself WHERE?”

AND THE WAY SHE SAYS WHERE I AM SLAIN

I think this is it, I really dislike the heavy make up they’re doing this season. I wonder if it’s also because the actress was recast so it kind of feels like she’s been dropped into a family as a fully-formed adult rather than someone we’ve seen age even a little bit. I do like how they’re portraying her character though!

I sometimes hate late 20s people being cast as teens but I am very much for it when it’s expected they’ll be in some very sexual scenes. Even if they were 18 it would feel icky to me.

Ponder cackles every time Colin gets awkward around Penelope and it was very satisfying watch Dowager Lady Bridgerton work it out. Heh.

I’ve not read the books but from what I’ve seen of the future sibling arcs online…have they introduced something really rather interesting for Francesca?? Anyone who’s read the books please confirm!!!
