cue the "they forgot they were acting!!" "that looked a bit too real!!" "they must've had a great time on set!!" comments from shippers
sooo are we going to talk about the parallel in the s4 polin carriage scene where pen fixes colin's cravat (compare to s3 where colin fixes pen's sleeve) or do i have to suffer on my own over here
not gonna lie the og expressions he said can be ableist depending on the context which gave me off vibes all together because why would describe someone like that and add to that what’s wrong of being quiet and not getting in the way of the crew while they are doing their job 🙃 like idk it felt he was looking down on him because he wasn’t annoying the crew during filming which is crazy
yeahhh idk it was def a weird thing to say. like, as a fellow neurodivergent person and an introvert, i can 100% see it being true. but esp if you look at the question he was asked...it didn't have to be said.
Netflix pushing for LT to do most interviews and tv show appearances in terms of promotions while Y only has one is just disrespectful I’m so pissed not gonna lie
and they're still gonna turn around and point the fingers at luke n and nicola when they want to cry racism. idk maybe look at the white man taking up space rather than advocating for his woc co-star, but thats just me.
watching the same benophies who spent years fuelling hate and cruelty toward bridgerton’s actors now turn around and complain that the general public thinks their male lead aged like milk LMAOOO
not judging at ALL, i’m just nosy lol why did you say you don’t care about luke t? it’s cause of ben? i love my girl sophie too but ben is not my cuppa tea. and i don’t know much about luke t 😆
ready for the hate i'll inevitably get for this but i don't much care for him tbh. i try not to say i 'don't like' anyone i don't personally know (unless they're actually problematic).
i get an extremely arrogant vibe from luke t, and i feel like (like his character) he's able to hide behind a cocky, playboy persona so no one really picks up on it. saying your season is raising the bar from previous seasons is disrespectful, and an insult to all the creatives who worked on previous seasons.
calling the previous male lead reserved and withdrawn when asked what you learnt from him is weird. saying you inspire yourself when asked about role-models. acting so surprised that rege jean page took it 'so seriously' when its 'light entertainment'. just because romance is a predominantly female genre doesn't mean its not worthy of your effort and care (this man just 'turned up, did his job, went home' according to him).
i don't know, he just seems very egotistical to me, and it gives me the ick.
I feel like I'm being lied to by everyone because AIN'T NO WAYYYY y'all think this man is attractive... where are his lips 😭😭😭
giving my bridgerton opinions since y'all wanna spread misinformation in my inbox about what i apparently like/dislike:
- colin bridgerton is the love of my life but his character writing makes me want to punch a wall
- my second favourite bridgerton is francesca (and i ship franchaela with my whole heart)
- i don't like benedict bridgerton but i hate anthony bridgerton more
- obsessed with sophie baek and phillip crane but kate sharma is my favourite bridgerton-in-law, that's my girl
- i love luke newton with everything that i am
- i love jonathan bailey. don't really care about luke thompson
- i LOVE nicola coughlan with my whole heart but her fans drive me crazy. penelope featherington...love/hate relationship but rn closer to dislike
- claudia jessie is my second fave cast member, love her DOWN. also a big charithra chandran girly
THAT'S ALL!!
I’m saying this as a penelope fan. They are not subtle with their leaning towards pen. The only bridgerton spouse so far who got this much attention is her. KA fans as much as I dislike them is right about one thing, that kate never got her due.
100%!! And it doesn't make people bad Penelope fans to point that out, in fact only the best of us are willing to put our fandom egos aside for a second and feel empathy for another character.
Kanthonies go about it the wrong way, and attacking actors only makes fools of them and their argument. But I'm sick of POC being silenced and belittled for having a valid point about a central white protagonist, by her white feminist fans and their fragile egos
Sophie not being part of the video is fine as she’s not a bridgerton yet, but why exclude John? I just don’t get it. Even Francesca’s resolution was about her married life so he should’ve been there.
exactly. I can excuse excluding Sophie if you're going for a bridgerton family situation but when you include Penelope and exclude every other in law it stops being a family thing and starts being favouritism that looks qwhite dodgy 🤷♀️
you liking Benedict but hating on Penelope is so weird ??? Like why are you even a Polin fan ??? I’m so confused
NOOOOO PEOPLE THINK I LIKE BENEDICT WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE THIS
extremely pleasantly surprised to see that I'm apparently 12th amongst Polin fic writers!! And have received over 10k combined kudos this year!! crazy!! 😭😭🍾
thanks everyone!! may everyusernameistakensoidk forever be known for Disney AUs, married Polin oneshots and shoving Colin down people's throats ❤️❤️
