look, Edwin is Charles' soulmate, but when I see two extremely attractive people making out my interest is piqued, ok? like...
I think everyone deserves a Casper-esque "can i keep you?" moment with a ghost. It should be a rite of passage for everyone if you ask me...
Penelope standing all alone at her wedding breakfast because her husband is ignoring her. It's so noticeable that her mother has to come and accompany her, it looks that bad.
Show!Colin you are trashhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh and Pen deserves better ffs
the book is so much better in every way, in every single way, like IN EVERY WAY. where do i start? like, I'm glad they had call backs & nods to the book, but the SPIRIT of Polin is just so much better in Romancing Mr. Bridgerton.
I still hate the Colin matchmaker plot, I hate it i hate it i hate it! You have to understand, the word "possessive" describes Colin Bridgerton - JQ uses that word to describe him MULTIPLE TIMES. He would not be okay with Pen speaking to other men, let alone setting her up with other men!
The journal scene is SO MUCH BETTER in the book because we read an entire passage of his adventures (not sexual) and they have a long conversation. The fact that Colin pulls away from that moment is wrong because it is Penelope that breaks off the moment in the book. Also, Colin loses his temper, which Penelope loves. Penelope loves when Colin loses his temper because she gets to see a side to him no one else sees and also it's established that she feels that expression of passion is reserved for those one has strong feelings for.
The carriage scene within itself was great but the scenario surrounding it is so whatever, not as good as book. Because his discovery of LW in the book is like a crescendo, it mirrors an orgasm, really, because of how much build up there is to it.
He takes too long in the show to figure out his feelings. In the book it's so much faster to realize he likes Penelope more than friends. We needed more yearning, more pining, idk more OOMF from show Colin. He's so soft spoken and reserved, not like book Colin.
I LOVE PENELOISE. Show Peneloise is SO GOOD, just as good as the book I think. And their mutual yearning and pining for each other was so beautiful. They are TRULY the love story of this season imo.
Nicola was REALLY REALLY GOOD. She's so Pen. She's so dreamy princess beautiful this season
overall it's good, it's alright, but i'm just saying the book is SO MUCH BETTER! and i NEEDED TO VENT.
Watch me turn your mind into my home.
"i'm pretty when i cry"
"You like role play? Maybe something like...this."
This scene was incredible. The Cat King is so down bad for Edwin.
show!Colin leaves Pen all alone in the middle of the street at night.
Twice.
The second time, Pen has to call out to Colin to get him to stop and talk to her. forcing her to initiate everything in this relationship because he's a spineless limp dick that keeps running away from her like a coward.
book!Colin would challenge show!Colin to a duel at dawn and kill him on the spot for this.
if there isn't a "Punch it, Chewie!" moment, is it even a Star War?
