anyone find it funny that in the last episode the scenes switched between penelope, colin, eloise and portia being like "oh no blackmail :(" and benedict, tilley and paul being like "SEXY TIME!!!"

[sunny-rants]

went into Bridgerton season 3 ready to watch just for Polin and the Peneloise friendship, only to come away with not just them, but also not one but TWO sapphic ships, and a throuple to boot!

Let's start here: I love Benedict. I love that he is queer. I love that he's a bit messy. I love that he's creative. I love that he shows affection and care easily.

I, at the same time, thought his through line this season was overdone. I would have easily traded 5 minutes of Benedict's time with Tilly and/or Paul for 5 minutes of happy or at least working together Polin.

I have multiple reasons for this:

-Tilly was never endgame. I just could not emotionally invest in her. Neither could Benedict apparently.

-This was Penelope's sexual awakening even more so than Benedict's. A woman going from no knowledge to understanding herself as a sexual being is a lovely journey when we get to see it.

-Benedict only grew in his sexual horizons this season, but I yearned to see him begin to draw and paint again. Being an artist is a KEY part of Benedict's core personality.

-The interspersing of scenes where Benedict was having nakey fun times was rather, I don't know? Rude? Misplaced? Distracting? Like it's Benedict play time while Polin is fighting or having their wedding or whatever. It just felt tonally whiplashy.

Anyways, I love Benedict, but I would have liked less of the Tilly mess in exchange for other items. That's all.

I think some of the criticisms of Bridgerton come down to nostalgia as the the series progresses because too many people have forgotten we had an episode of S1 that revolved around Daphne not being able to properly choose a winning pig.

Every season has at least one “pig plot”, it’s inevitable.

I loved Season 3 of Bridgerton so much

I loved Colin and Penelope's romance, how it was evident she was still in love with him and yet was trying to be practical. Not to mention the fact that he was down bad after one (1) kiss, like she got him good with that one! Also, love the fact that Colin was trying to get Penelope to not be herself and yet it was by being herself that she attracted Debling (decent guy through and through, low key thinking him and Cressida might be a good match) and Colin's jealousy was phenomenal, just the yearning, amazing. And of course, the carriage scene, damn did it deliver or what.

I loved seeing Francesca in a more prominent role and I'm so pleased with Hannah's portrayal. I was a little worried that it wouldn't feel like Francesca but she just nailed it. Francesca and John were so cute together, just sitting there silently confusing the hell out of the Bridgertons.

I enjoyed Violet immensely this season. I'm so glad that the writers are showing how she has learned from previous seasons, especially with Eloise and her role in society. I think Violet isn't entirely sure how best to help Francesca because she is quite different from Violet herself and from her own sisters, but it was evident from the scene of Francesca playing the sheet music that John got her that Violet recognises how happy he makes Francesca. Violet also clued on about Colin's predicament very quickly, thank goodness otherwise we would have needed another 5 years for Colin to work up the courage to tell Penelope his feelings. Ruth Gemmell really shone in her scenes where she was advising any of her children, but particularly with Colin, amazing, no notes.

I adored the scenes between Marcus Anderson and Violet. They had a really palpable chemistry, but they aren't going to fast with it, which I appreciate, and I'm really looking forward to seeing how their story continues to develop into Part 2. Ruth Gemmell really made it feel realistic with the small hope of more while still primarily focusing on her children and not getting carried away too quickly.

Queen Charlotte was phenomenal this season alongside Lady Danbury. They've really played into the friendship that was established in QC: ABS which was a wonderful call because these two actors are amazing together. I only wished we had gotten more Lady Danbury and Penelope scenes, to establish that relationship, but perhaps it will come in Part 2.

Marcus Anderson is an enigma, especially with whatever happened between him and Lady Danbury, I really hope he is as good a guy as he comes across as, because him and Violet have really got something cute going on. Also, Lady Danbury can either keep her mouth shut about it, or be confronted by Violet about loving her dad. Lady Danbury really doesn't have a leg to stand on here.

Eloise, this season, made perfect sense to me. She is finally starting to embrace a little of what the Season can offer and I wasn't expecting to like her and Cressida's friendship at all, but it does seem to have helped Eloise a little, especially after her falling out with Penelope. I'm pleased they didn't go for the outright villain route of her revealing Whistledown even accidentally. I think by the end of the season Eloise and Penelope will hopefully be friends again, or at least something nearing it, because while Cressida has helped Eloise, it is clear the Eloise's morals feel a bit torn about this due to Cressida's actions, particularly towards Penelope.

It was interesting to see more of Cressida this season and some of the pressure she finds herself under due to her family. I also appreciate that the writers are like we'll explain why she does it, but it doesn't excuse her actions.

I think the Featheringtons continue to be comedic relief, which is highly entertaining. The Featheringtons may not be my favourite family and their treatment of Penelope is reproachable but when it is just Portia, Prudence and Phillipa, the entertainment is amazing. Polly Walker, particularly, did amazingly in her scenes.

I'm not sure how to feel about Benedict and Lady Tilley Arnold, it felt a little unnecessary for Benedict to fall into bed with another person and Lady Tilley certainly seems to be questionable in some way, especially with her lawyer.

I liked seeing the Mondrich's, even if it felt like their story was a little unnecessary. Like we've had stories about trying to fit in society, I feel like the writers could have used the time to explore the other stories they had, but I didn't dislike their scenes.

BRIDGERTON SPOILERS

MICHAELA STIRLING??? FRANS NEW LOVE INTEREST IS A WOMAN WHO SHE ALREADY HAS CHEMISTRY WITH??? UGHH IM SO FUCKING HAPPY. A FEM4FEM COUPLEEEEE YAYYYY 😍😍 next few seasons will be amazingggg.

Also, very glad Benedict is exploring the queer side of his identity.

Polin: I liked it. Colin defended Pen amazingly and seems to truly love her. Pen has finally got what she deserves: to be seen (by the public) and by the man of her dreams. love that for her. also glad she has eloise back as a friend. cressida was gettin on my nerves.

Anthony: I found it so cute that he told Kate he wanted to have the baby in her home country, so both him and the baby can learn her culture and history. He is very considerate, and I love seeing him happy.

Portia: She had a personality glow-up. I’m glad she is finally being a mom, and not just a mother.

Featherington sisters: I think the 3 of them are starting to get along, and not due to any influence by their mom but because they truly enjoy each others company.

Violet Bridgerton: I’m glad she has a love interest. But I could just imagine the scene Anthony would cause if he found out 😭

Overall, I would give the season an 8.7/10. I feel like there was a lot of repetition between eloise and pen, and it took up a significant amount of the episodes at times. Still, i think adding a female love interest for Fran instead of it being “Michael” made up for it, cause it really made it end on a good note.🙏🏾

i think bridgerton should add a few more episodes into the next seasons after s3 because it’s getting a little confusing with all these plots:

- benedict and lady tilley arnold

- kate and anthony (who we saw for like 10 minutes)

- francessca and john

- colin and pen ofc

- violet and lady danbury’s brother

- lady danbury and her brother

- eloise, cressida and penelope

- featherington’s traditional money problem schemes

- the mondrichs

im only pointing this out because they won’t be able to fit all of these and more (as more siblings come out) into 8 episodes. i think they might need to extend it to 12 to fully explore the subplots they try to put in the storyline.

buuuuut i’ll still be watching anyways 🫡🫶

maybe i just want more bridgerton and im just sad they only gave us four episodes i need more
