michaela is michael from francesa’s book and she is her endgame, NOT john. francesca’s story was changed to be queer because the writer recognized those elements in her book and thought it completed her character arc. she is not going to cheat on john. in fact, I don’t even think she fully realizes what are feelings for michaela even are. the storyline with john was not for nothing. a “quiet love” can still exist it just doesn’t always have to be romantic and can instead be based on companionship over passion.
Your editing is interesting in this video, you barely showed any of Penelope’s speech, none of Colin’s to Penelope at the end, or the moments between Portia and Penelope that really bonded them, especially the maybe we are more alike than I care to admit. Not sure if you’re trying to get people to your patreon, but these were pretty crucial moments that made the episode feel satisfying.
I think I felt the same about the final episode, I know that Bridgerton also has so many storylines every season but I think they fumbled in juggling telling a full and complete resolution of the Whistledown Storyline and the Romantic storyline. Which is the ultimate goal.
Book spoiler: In the books, Michaela was MICHAEL. The author has made a statement saying she signed off on the gender swap.
The Michaela reveal is just not mathing. Episode 1 we see Fran speaking with nothing but eligible young women on presentation day. Francesca was surrounded by a bevy of non-family ladies at the garden party. The Michaela butterflies in the face of John's established love just felt forced and it cheapened their whole story arc.
I think the whole back clap, we all love a little gossip was BAD... Like the queen threatened to DESTROY Eloise and her family about LW but just smiles at Penelope? It makes little sense and it makes everything that Penelope DID to protect her identity before look STUPID 😅😂
I think they fumbled Cressida this season but I hope she gets redeemed still
I think I ended up liking the season precisely because there wasn't enough Polin. I just never got to care for them even though they should've been one of the easier couples to love.
So Lord Remington (the cool, goodlooking wheelchair guy from episode 2 or 3 who was really into gossip) had no purpose? Does he become important later? Why introduce such a distinctively memorable character for no reason?
tbh it’s sad that Nerdy hasn’t yet watched probably the best season of Bridgerton ❤
I assumed Francesca is bi and her reaction to the kiss was more that there was no passion in it. She clearly likes John, her glowing happiness is obvious. There's just no carnal lemme rip your clothes off passion. And she felt that the moment she saw Michaela walk in. It's not so much that she's never met a woman. She wasn't attracted to the debutants either--same as Benedict realizing he's not attracted to every man he meets. But rather, Michaela is gorgeous, spicy and shamelessly flirty the way most of these "innocent" court women aren't.
Yeah Queen Charlotte is kind of really important to watch in order to understand those conversations between Lady Danbury and Violet.😅
I thought also the Fransceca things weren't handled well.

This is my favorite season and couple but it’s a shame because nic and Luke have great chemistry and I loved the scenes we got but I wanted more. To many storylines. Also I along with a bunch of other fans went back and watched the other seasons polin has the least screentime together and there is a rumor that they cut a lot of scenes which sucks. Like how are they gonna cut the main couple scenes then have ben have multiple threesomes for no reason etc. it just makes me feel bad for the actors they are the reason I even watched this season because their press tour and friendship was so cute/good just for the show runner to not utilize their chemistry ugh. It’s such a bad look they decided to did all this storylines when the leading lady is midsize wtf. Polin deserved better😬
it's a bit rough to say...while I agree that Polin didn't get as much screen time, especially in the back half, Francesca's story needed to be set up sooner rather than later (Book readers will know why). Benedict needed to be seen as "adrift" as his season is (probably) next....but they could have cut down on his scenes. He is a fan favorite though, so maybe they were trying to please everyone and pleased only some. While Anthony and Kate had only one steamy scene in their season, they took up much more screen time than Colin and Pen did in theirs.
In the books, it's Lady Danbury who encourages Penelope to write in the first place! 🥰 They have a great friendship in the books- it's one of the things that I miss, and wish they had done. But! I am okay with how it turned out! ❤️
Queen Charlotte is perfect must be the next rec!!!!!
Also- Gregory is the g kid’s name xD
