Season 3 - Colin & Penelope's Triumph

Stop listening to loud people in bubbles who want to bring down your enthusiasm and crumple your joy with how much we have to enjoy Penelope and Colin's season. There are some people with a clear agenda of hatred because of their own couples that will straight up lie, cherry pick and manipulate to try to get people turned off or to feel insecure about saying they love what they love. Sometimes, people with a weaker personality and herd mentality fall for that and start thinking oh, maybe it's not good or i shouldn't like. Some nonsenses that we read sometimes and some fall for it: Nonsense: "Polin is not popular, the show would be doomed by them. People wont watch" Reality:

Nonsense: "Polin is being dragged by negative reviews by public and fans who doesn't see chemistry" ( lol, i can't even with that one...) Reality:

At this moment, very near season 1 in critics ( 87%) and above in audience score and higher than season 2 in both aspects. Does it make anyone like or dislike more? because it sure wouldn't make me like more or less something. Nonsense: Only negative things go viral. Reality:

That tweet is from 13 hours ago. You read that right. 13 hours ago and look at views, look at 139K ( HOLY SHIT) that have liked and an insane 65K have already bookmarked. That's viral in a insane level by people loving their chemistry and them together. If anything they have too much chemistry. lol Artists, famous figures and all saying they watched and loved also on SNSs. The general audience loving it. We, from inside the fandom, might have our issues, things we wanted more or less, but it's glorious what we have and how much Nicola Coughlan & Luke Newton gave and are giving us. The hatred is being silenced by the simple truth and the enjoyment people are having. They tried to hate on their popularity, it didn't work. They tried with their chemistry, it didn't work. They tried telling us it was fast or forced even with all we have already got of their relationship ( a couple that actually has been developing from season 1 and that already had a bond and has a different personality and path from other couples) and with 4 episodes left. They tried with their acting. Were proved wrong and more and more people are realizing the characters paths and the acting choices and praising. They tried with their looks. Made them look bad instead. So they tried with lies and look what they got back on their faces...a glorious triumph. So, have a great time. Be a fan and just be happy, enjoy without worrying, without comparisons. Some people are so bitter that they just don't want to like anything. It's their loss.

Hey, as much as I enjoy your blog I just want to warn you that there are trolls and A’s supporters on tumblr who have been targeting popular Polin blogs. I fear that after unsuccessfully provoking you with negative messages in previous anon asks they might have changed their strategy to bringing up any reason to mention A’s name, hence making her live rent-free in our heads. We don’t want that, do we?

Personally I have no interest in her life and whatever she does with Luke. If Luke is meant to appear somewhere he will, and us speculating about A’s whereabouts means we are just gradually making her a minor celebrity whose every move is followed and discussed among a big fandom.

I love your blog very much because it is so entertaining to read, but I really REALLY don’t want to keep seeing discussion about A please, I don’t see how it might help much shipping Polin/Lukola. However, your blog, your choice.

I get it anon but what you fail to realize you don't even see a tenth of the shit I see.

Be glad I don't post all the BS I get.

Also if you are looking to avoid adjacent discussion to L and N I suggest following BocceGoHawks on TT she is literally the best.

This is the Wild Wild West of topic discussion, respectfully 💜🥃

To all Polin fans,

Remember that we are here for Nic, Luke, and Polin.

Anything beyond them should be ignored instead of being let to live rent free in our minds.

It is tough, but doable, and I appreciate that it might take quite a bit of compartmentalising.

Like you, I find it frustrating that we got hooked in by their chemistry but now suddenly have to tolerate Luke’s whatever life choices. We fucking have no other options, because we love Nic and Luke. Well I guess that’s PR well done.

Given that we are now completely at their mercy with no power or entitlement whatsoever, we just have to figure out the best way to keep supporting Nic, Luke and Polin without having our interest hijacked for any other purposes, that is if you still want to remain in the fandom. The more you dig and discuss and speculate the more hype is given to the wrong party. Don’t become pawns in their game.

I hope you stay calm and reasonable, and somehow can still find joy in Polin, and even Lukola. What they have given us so far is amazing, don’t ever forget that.

Have a good day!
