#but benedict is soooo adorable

[andthebubbles]

i am soooo obsessed with bridgerton s2 rn and that combined with some bad takes i’ve seen on seb and f1 lately is just... kinda pushing me away from all that...

i do wonder if i’m more into bridgerton s2 than i ever was with rop, but i suppose time will tell wrt longevity and stuff

my faves from bridgerton are (in some order!): anthony, benedict, penelope, kate :3

Ooo bickering prompts? The one about reading in bed is adorable ☺️ I could see Benedict being all “please, I’m trying to sleep and you keep gasping and shouting at your book.” Then they’d probably either ridicule each other’s hobbies OR he’d say he can give her something better to gasp and shout about 😉😁

Love this prompt! Thank you for the request and hope you are doing well! Benedict would get soooo annoyed, lol, here you go!!!

~

You felt his eyes on you, but you couldn't look away from the grisly tale splashed across the pages of your novel. He sighed and let his warm hand creep across your midriff. You leaned into him, but your eyes didn't leave the pages.

Benedict pulled you closer and laid his head on the pillow, closing his eyes finally. You scratched his head absentmindedly as you turned the page.

Half an hour past and Benedict had almost fallen asleep, but he was jarred awake at your shout. He shot up. "What? What happened?" he asked, panicked.

Your mouth hung open slightly, no answer falling out of it for a moment. "That's it? That's how the author ends the book?" you practically scream, making your husband sigh in relief that you were ~ physically ~ alright.

He drug his hand down his face. "(Y/N)...haven't we talked about this before? No reading in bed," he rasped with his sleepy voice.

You pouted. "I remember talking about that, but I know I didn't agree to it, Benedict."

He groaned, but threw his best puppy dog eyes at you. "Don't you care about your poor husband's rest? How can I get 40 winks with this candle burning all night?" he whined.

"Aw, you poor baby, you can't sleep? What about when you keep me up all night while you sketch?" you mocked him playfully, grabbing his cheeks and giving them a squeeze.

He batted your hands away, growling. The next thing you knew he had pinned your arms above your head, his lithe body hovering over yours.

"How about I give you something to shout about, wife? Make you forget about that stupid book."

You smirked. "What book?"

*hitches up pants in an old tyme way* I hear tell there was an AMA ‘round these parts, so you know what that means? It’s time for another

BRIDGERTON DEATH MATCH

You’ve done one for Benedict, you’ve done one for Anthony and now it’s time forrrrrrr

BOTH!

That’s right this is the MANBREAD fight to the death. Or y’know, exile to Aubrey Hall until needed 🤣🫶🧡

Now let’s meet the contenders!

First men in the Sexy Octagon: Pall Mall Bros!

Next up: The S3 Carriage Hotties

Followed by: The Pre-Hunt ALL OF THAT Scene

And then we have the S3 Part 2 Bro Hug

And our last contenders, from S1: the “Go Dance With Your Sister”s

I would like it noted that I COULD have included Moments Manbread

But we all know they have an unfair advantage and rightfully so 🥵😮‍💨

There are five contenders and you have a choice to make

There can be ONLY one, WHO DO YOU CHOOSE?

Love ya! 🤣🫶🧡

Hello, my lovely/awful friend,

OMG AMA DEATH MATCH?! This might be your hardest yet!!

Well, this is a TOUGH CALL sober, let alone DRUNK AS I AM RIGHT NOW. YOU ARE SO CRUELLLLLL . Imma need that luck, Viscount Bridgerton, cos FUCK this choice is IMPOSSSIBLLEEEE.

Of course, I want them ALL. And yes, Moments manbread is the absolute pinnacle. 🥵😮‍💨

Okay, okay, okay...

Well... as much as I love the S1 moment, that's the first to go cos of the unfortunate hair situations (I still would, but with hotter manbread, it's the easiest to dismiss).

Now then, the S3 hug is adorable, and the S3 carriage ride inspired a whole Lessons fic, but I'm dismissing them ONLY because S2 reigns supreme for me, certainly in terms of A & B together.

Soooo.... it's down to Pall Mall vs Pre-Hunt with the Benedict faces. Fuck me (please, boys). This is tough. Im flipping a coin and going Pall Mall so they can be "very powerful with their sticks" and I get to witness it.

The others can be under exile at Aubrey Hall, where I, of course, will visit them.

You are cruel, and I love you 😁🧡🧡

[lilislegacy]

YES YES YES i agree w everything

pen and colin are 100% my faves but there are some things that i was like ????? why???? and this season was so good it made me wanna bawl my eyes out, like i cant physically take this anymore

but PLEASE i need to know what you think about the queer storylines!!! like bi ben is canon?? and MICHAELA!!! also creloise?? like im actually gonna die and i cant wait for next season 😭😭😭

thanks for the ask @guacala!

spoilers ahead

i know, colin and pen were SO cute. in the books i’m pretty sure colin stays by her side even when he’s mad at her about whistledown, so i didn’t like how distant he was in the show. he’s supposed to be more “im so angry but im also so in love with you” but in the show he was more “im so angry and i don’t know if i want you anymore” which wasn’t my fav, but they were still adorable. although him leaving her in the street, alone, at night, after he found out her secret was the most out of character thing i’ve ever seen. colin would never. that choice was not thought through. but when they fought and yelled at each other in the street and then got spicy immediately after??? i was LIVING for that

the queer storylines are certainly interesting. i’m here for it for my baby boy benedict. he’s always been a little fruity. i’m not surprised in the slightest. but for francesca… idk. it’s not that i’m opposed to it, but the way they’re handling it is soooo odd

i’m definitely excited to see how everything goes down in season 4. just a short speedy 2-3 year wait 🫡

[lifewouldbebetteronmars]

This is literally Anthony’s revenge

Benedict was soooo amused at kate roasting Anthony he’s literally gonna ADORE Sophie

Anthony and Sophie are gonna be besties I’m so excited

[fangirlforlife97]

I got to say I absolutely love period pieces in literature and media!! I always knew Bridgerton was hypable but damn I didn't realize just how much!? I recently started watching "Bridgerton" for the first time and I'm very much loving it, IT'S SOOOO GOOD!!!! I'm almost done with the 1st season but I thought I'd go ahead and voice some thoughts I have before finishing the season.

- I love Simon and Daphne, I really hope they work things out and get a happy ending because they are so cute together!! I really hate the tense times they are going through at the moment.

- CAN WE PLEASE MAKE PENELOPE AND ELOISE A THING!!??!!! THEY'D BE ADORABLE TOGETHER. I'd rather they get together than Penelope and Colin. Nothing against Colin, just prefer that pairing more.

- CAN WE ALSO PLEASE MAKE BENEDICT BISEXUAL??!! He seems to be into women but he's also giving off some major bisexual/gay vibes, and I'd like to see more of it.

- The show needs more diversity in terms of sexuality, I love the show don't get me wrong, but it would be nice to add more of it. I've heard that Penelope, Eloise, and Benedict aren't LGBTQ, at least not in the books. But as we all know, adaptations are allowed to change things, I think it would be a great change honestly. Penelope and Eloise being an item/endgame, and a bisexual Benedict would be a missed opportunity I feel.

My current guesses who could be "Lady Whistledown"?!:

- Lady Danbury, Penelope, or the Bridgerton main head maid?! That's all I got so far.

- I love the show, the atmosphere, the writing, the acting, the cast, some of the characters, etc. Looking forward to watching and learning more!

[dreamwritesimagines]

alright so it's time for me to overanalyze this whole chapter (but particularly that last scene omfg)

okay so first of all im still not quite over the sneak peak. "for my beautiful wife" (get me a benedict bridgerton i beg of you).

the teddy scene was so sweet omg!!! the way ben and clover are just acting so domestic is soooo adorable! and it's so sweet that as clover starts to be more open with ben, so does teddy. he's literally gone from hiding behind clover's skirts whenever ben is around to “looking up at him as if asking for his help", and idk, to me that just seems meaningful that even teddy (who was so opposed to clover getting married) likes ben, because it would be so easy for him to not like ben because he 'took clover away' so to speak. AND THE WAY HE JUST PICKED TEDDY UP AND PUT HIM ON HIS SHOULDERS!!! MEN WHO ARE GOOD WITH KIDS ARE SO HOT ISTG!!!!

"You knew you were supposed to focus on your own work but it was a bit difficult when Benedict was sitting not far from you on the floor with his sleeves rolled up, letting you steal glances at his strong arms." she's honestly so real for that, arms are hot asf. and OMG don't even get me STARTED on “So that people will get to see what true beauty looks like even after five hundred years.” because holy shit benedict bridgerton is THE STANDARD. and the way clover has such confidence in bens art!!! pls i literally love them so much i can't-

awwww and then andrew/bess/josie bit!! i was wondering when ben was going to ask about them for a couple of weeks. i love how clover was willing to just tell him without being scared he'd massively judge them or something. like of course he wouldn't but clover is super distrustful most of the time so i was wondering how open she'd be about someone who is as important to her as josie is.

“I seem to like seeing you beat around the bush, that was rather adorable,” clover you're literally so in love with him, stop being in denial already!!!!!! 😭😭😭

alright now onto lady margery. honestly when we first met her i didn't like her AT ALL because i thought she was going to be the next kitty-type girl trying to steal benedict away or something. honestly i have mixed feelings on her because i automatically don't like anyone who makes our girl feel insecure but i also find her really likable. she's this perfect representation of exactly what clover wanted to (and could have) been had she not met, and subsequently married, ben. her and clover are a nice little "what i wanted vs what i got" situation and im honestly here for it.

AND THIS - “I find the idea of marriage quite absurd if you ask me, especially within the ton. It’s the worst prison to be.” “Not for everyone,” !!!!!!! THAT IS WHAT WE CALL CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!!! the best bit is she isn't under any pressure to say anything like that. lady margery wouldn't have questioned her if she said nothing, and there was no one there who she had to convince of anything. she just automatically defended marriage (or at least her and ben's marriage) without even thinking about it and yet she STILL DOESN'T RECOGNISE THAT SHE'S IN LOVE WITH HIM!!!??? CLOVER??? GIRL??? YOU'RE DOWN SO BAD PLS!! 😭😭😭

anyways i think im going to have to overanalyze the final scene in a different ask because this is getting way longer than i thought it was lol. (ill sign it off with a nice little mirrorball emoji so yk it's me lmao)

- 🪩

MIRRORBALL EMOJI ANON I LOVE YOU SO MUCH-

I saw this ask and I literally gasped and got so excited, I am hugging you respectfully! 🥰❤️ YOU'RE AMAZING! ❤️

Fangirling over you under the cut! 🥰❤️

Lolll Benedict went down to the garden to get those flowers all happy and excited 😂

Benedict and Clover are being such a married couple 🥰 And dare I say even parents? 😏

he's literally gone from hiding behind clover's skirts whenever ben is around to “looking up at him as if asking for his help", EXACTLY! 😍 Like, Teddy admires Benedict and looks up to him so much, and he feels so safe with him ❤️ I think it's because he can pick up how relaxed and happy Clover is around Benedict 🥰

YES OMG I AGREE WITH YOUUUU! 😍 Benedict being so good with Teddy...😍

Lolll Clover could not focus at all, she was eyeing him and his arms 😏

He is so romantic! ❤️

Clover trusts him so much, like more than he thinks she does❤️ The fact that she shared the details of Josie and Andrew's arrangement with him means a lot on her part ❤️

honestly i have mixed feelings on her because i automatically don't like anyone who makes our girl feel insecure but i also find her really likable. she's this perfect representation of exactly what clover wanted to (and could have) been had she not met, and subsequently married, ben. This is exactly what I was going for! 😍

Like, Clover won't know how to feel about Margery either 😂 She is, just like you said, a representation of what Clover was planning on, and what she thought she wanted 😏 But now that she met Benedict, it all changed -for the better- ❤️ But also there's the whole "being good enough for him" insecurity that hits Clover from time to time 🥰

DEFINITELY! ❤️😍 I was hoping that Clover's conversation with Margery would show her character development at this point in the story and IT'S SO GOOD TO HEAR THAT IT DID! ❤️ Clover had literally zero reason to "pretend" while she was with Margery, and it actually came almost automatic to her, like she didn't even think about it before she said "Not for everyone", she genuinely feels like it! ❤️

She is so in loveeee❤️

OH MY GOD I'M SO EXCITED FOR YOUR NEXT ASK AS WELL, HOLD ON-

AAAAAAAA I'M LEGIT SMILING! 😍❤️❤️

[justmossyall]

I GOT YOU!!

the scythe series is my FAVORITE DYSTOPIAN SERIES EVER. ohhhhhhh my gosh it is so good. i could literally talk about it for hours. the book on the right, Dry, is also an AMAZING standalone dystopian book by the same author. neal shusterman is such a good author

more realistic fiction but it’s definitely fantasy, i am OBSESSED with this book. i think the author is actually on tumblr lol, she’s great. this book is so good and has helped me through some tough times

as amazing as the ghibli movie is, the original book will always be superior. sophie and howl are so much more sassy in this book and it’s just a very confusing but fun and wonderful read. 10/10 would recommend.

and i will always recommend the mysterious benedict society series!! it’s soooo good i adore it. if im being totally and completely honest i haven’t read them in a while so i don’t remember much past the first book, but im planning to do a full reread this summer!! :)

hope these helped! lmk if you want any more book recs! <3

DO YOU HAVE BOOK RECS

I need books (no I don't I'm broke) but idk what to gettttt

Dystopian and fantasy are really the only genres I like (romance, sci-fi, etc as subgenres are fine)

If you have any please give them to mehhhhhh

[weirdmorefics]

Hi! Could you do a Bridgerton sibling reader (youngest) where she has like ADHD and she’s like 7 or 8 and during an important dinner for the adults she comes down because she has something very “important” to show her mother and everyone just finds her adorable

A/N- This is such a cute request I love it!

Warnings- None

Pronouns- She/Her

Word Count- 663

Summary- Anthony has gathered the adults of his family to hopefully win over the Sharmas for a proposal when his younger sister interrupts.

Lightning Bugs

“I am soooo boreeeed” I cry out throwing myself dramatically on the floor.

Eloise rushes over excitedly “We can always discuss some Lady Whistledown theories!” 

I roll over onto my face and let out an even bigger groan.

Colin hushes me “You do not want Anthony to come out and scold you, do you? He is very busy trying to win over the Sharmas with Mother and Daphne. ”

“Ugh, you guys are no fun! Come on Gregory and Hyacinth!” I say grabbing their arms and dragging them outside.

“Please do not stay out too long it is getting dark!” Colin tries to yell out to us but I am too busy to hear.

“What are we doing out here Y/N?” Gregory groans out.

“Going on Adventure of course!” I say with a huge smile causing Hyacinth to giggle.

I gesture for them to both follow me and we march off. Hyacinth is picking flowers for Mom as we go and Gregory and I are splashing in puddles. Then I make them follow me to the biggest tree in the yard.

“This tree is perfect! If we climb it we will see everything and find the best place for adventuring!” I yell out.

Gregory seems excited to be climbing the tree, Hyacinth sighs but still follows us to climb the tree. As we all climb the tree there are tons of lightning bugs gathering!

“We have to show the lightning bugs to the whole family!” I exclaim jumping from the tree and crashing to the ground. “I’m okay” I shout raising my hand up. I begin running to the dining room as Gregory and Hyacinth shake their heads.

I bust through the family room very violently catching all my siblings' attention.

Colin runs up to me “Are you okay Y/N?” He says quickly assessing my body for injuries.

I swat Colin’s hands “ I must speak to Mama it is urgent!” 

“No, no, no we can not interrupt Anthony’s dinner,” He said scooping me up.

I have to quickly think of a way to get out of his grasp so I do the most logical thing and bite him. Colin shouts in pain dropping me and Eloise is on the floor laughing. I take this opportunity to run past them and barrel into the dining room. 

The whole room stares at me but I have to focus on what's important. “You all must come outside it is urgent!” I shout. 

Anthony quickly stands up and rushes to me “Why is it urgent is everyone okay?” He asks very anxiously.

“Everything is fine you just got to see this!” I groan grabbing his hand and dragging him outside.

The rest of the Bridgertons follow us outside as well as the Sharmas. 

“See look isn’t it beautiful!” I say gesturing smiling widely.

The guests and Bridgertons all look at the lightning bugs with aw.

“They are quite beautiful Y/N,” Anthony smiles and messes up my hair with his hands.

Eloise nods “I must say they are beautiful but I much preferred when you bite Colin.”

Benedict laughed very hard at that but mom gave me the “you did what” look causing me to laugh. Benedict picked me up and dance me around. The Sharmas were smiling quite widely and reaching their hands out to the lightning bugs. 

Gregory quickly ran inside and came back with a jar to try to capture some while Hyacinth tried to stop him.

“The lightning bugs belong outside Gregory!” She shouts waving her hands.

Anthony steals me from Benedict grabbing me into his arms and tickling me while I try to escape him. Benedict grabs onto Eloise and forces her to dance causing Francesa to get jealous and pull Colin to dance with her.

It was a wonderful night full of dancing and laughter and I really hope Anthony marries one of the Sharmas because they fit right in with our family plus you can never have too many sisters!

Hey, darl! 💕 I know we haven't interacted much and although we are both PB blogs, I have to agree with your stand on Penelope and Colin for S3 of Bridgerton. I was so excited when I heard the announcement and then really discouraged by the fans' reactions. I LOVE Penelope so much and I can't wait to watch the next season because I know it's going to be my favorite. I'm so happy to see that you feel the same!

Hi my lovely! I’m so glad you sent this ask. I’m all for bonding over PB and Bridgerton. I’m caught between the two currently while I have a break from writing.

I was so excited when I heard the news too, I love Penelope and don’t think it’s fair she’s made out to be so evil by some fans. One of the reasons I’m glued Bridgerton is because just like PB all the characters have flaws, no one is perfect or written to be and it’s refreshing. As much as I adore Benedict I am soooo ready for Polin!

I have faith in the actors to do an amazing job in portraying a beautiful and messy love story just as the other series have done ❤️

[albertserra]

hi, i was wondering what order you’d recommend watching terence davies’ movies in? i watched benediction and loved it, but idk where to go from there. thanks.

Starting with benediction is a bit wild and I’m happy u loved it!!!! You can really go anywhere from there imo if you responded well to benediction. His earlier works are much more personal (his trilogy, the long day closes, of time and the city) and I really adore them all. Distant voices still lives is also perfect. I’ve been taking my time with his films bc they’ve all been soooo emotionally taxing tho so I haven’t actually seen the rest of his films yet 💀

[mulderscully]

ok i’m sorry cause this is literally sooo random but i was going through your posts and i agree with you so much in that i’m not always a huge fan of baby storylines for my ships and sometimes it feels so ooc and weird for them or it just doesn’t feel needed for their rl, etc. and not every ship needs a kid. also i agree with you that like i feel like both kate and anthony are so well-suited for parenthood and it’s clearly something they both want and i’m so excited to possibly see it onscreen like they’re gonna be soooo adorable and excited to have a lil family ☹️ it’s gonna be so sweet. and ik anthony is probably gonna be rlly freaked out and worried abt kate when she’s pregnant and they’re both gonna deal with trauma related to it (maybe) but i feel like he’s gonna be such an amazing dad after their baby is born and throughout her pregnancy and he’s gonna be so cute with the baby, like seeing them holding their own human they created in the background while everyone else deals with random relationship drama is gonna be so 😭😭 i do hope it’s benedict’s season for s3 cause i feel like that would actually be more interesting but i honestly don’t care as long as we see kate and anthony in some capacity, i miss them sm already :(

hi!! omg don't apologize. i've actually had dadthony brainrot all night so i'm happy to talk about it!! i totally agree, i think setting anthony up as such a loving older brother was a great way to show us he'll be a great father and i'm also hoping we see kate talk about how she wanted kids but never imagined she would have the chance etc. i def think anthony's trauma is gonna make him a nervous wreck while she's pregnant and i'm really excited to see them work through it together and talk about it. i think it's so special that they have such similar life experiences and can truly understand each other.

tbh i also wanted it to be benedict's season but i read an interview where simone said smth about it being penelope and colin bc she was excited to see them rock it and while anthony and kate are all loved up and how excited she is to play that. i kinda get the feeling that they're trying to intigrate all the arcs together and make it feel less like an anthology series. but same! i'm so excited to see them all married and 💓🥺🥺

i got so emo reading the 2nd epilogue of the viscount who loved me and i hope we smth like this at some point

[silverhallow]

Hey Ash what are your absolute favourite things about the Rokesby series???

Soooo i've not finished First Comes Scandal and i've got a lot that I love about that so far... but remind me in a day or two and i'll add to this!

But... here we go. i'll pop it below the cut cause... spoilers

Because of Miss Bridgerton:

i love Billie Bridgerton but she is literally me... A bigger Tom Boy has never been born. i'd have been a disaster in that era.

I loved the way that George and Billie were having similar thoughts, the way they teased Andrew... and Andrew and his houses of Cards... the whole Bridgerton/Rokesby Relationship was just adorable and I loved it.

I loved that Billie is headstrong, she is stubborn and she literally sits in George's room and waits for him.

I love that they're a team, even when they're squabbling on that roof, i personally got that vibe, at least on the second read I did...

i love Billie trying with her younger sister, despite the age gap. i love Billie just... wanting and doing it.

She's just... amazing.

I love that George loved her for who she was, not who she was trying to be. he prefers her in breeches than a dress and we see in the epilogue (and Edward's) that she still wears them.

George wants her to be herself and he loves her for it.

Rivals to Lovers... done god damn RIGHT.

The Girl with the Make Believe Husband

i love Edward with all my heart. almost as much as i love Benedict. apparently I am a sucker for a second son.

I love their story SO FUCKING MUCH.

they loved each other before they even met!!!!!!!!!!

like writing to one another through Cecilia and Thomas' letters... and pining for each other. Edward sending her pressed flowers. You know Thomas was like "yep, my best mate is going to marry my sister"

i can totally see it being a love at first sight trope if she hadn't declared herself his wife... and she'd been allowed in as Miss Harcourt...

I loved Cecila's inner turmoil, her stress and her little goals...

and fucking poisoning herself with the strawberry to get out of seeing his godmother. fucking baller move.

and their first time... my man... her pleasure is his pleasure... YES...

and then everything at the end... the way she was breaking her heart, so sure she was doing the right thing, thinking anything he felt was because of the lie... MAN it broke my heart...

his anger and his frustrations at it all, the way they were honest and human with each other was just... perfect.

this is literally my second favourite JQs book's that i've read... it's my favourite Rokesby story.

The Other Miss Bridgerton...

Oh Poppy...

Once i got over the weird "you brought me a present" line... when poppy was basically bound and gagged...

I loved this story. the struggle of Andrew wanting to do the right thing for king and country and as a gentleman.

he's not a pirate, he's a gentleman but he's in a role and I get that. it would be hard for him and it was hard for Poppy and he tried his best.

I love their back and forth and their banter and teasing...

I loved her opening open and talking about Roger and her childhood and it was just so cute...

but...

BILLY.

Billy was just adorable. all nervous and worried and then standing and talking to Poppy and the coming to rescue Poppy...

he's just adorable and I want to adopt him.

Poppy with them Malasadas... totally me with food. I loved the way they fell in love. in the middle before they even realised...

and then back at Crake... the thing with the soup... and Andrew chasing her through the house...

Feel a bit robbed at their first time mind... compared to TGWTMBH and BOMB it was a bit of a let down...

but their epilogue was just... FUCKING ADORABLE.

ROGER WILLIAM!!!! I cried.

About bridgerton season 2

i was planning in watch one episode each day so i would streeech my joy but nope, i got covid and im trapped in my house with only Netflix as my company so i binged watch the entire season in one morning and then sleep for 16 hours because my body was tyred soooo i have so many toughts about the new season. spoilers by the way!! 

1.- The cast for Edwina and Kate is absolutely perfect i adore the sisters 

2.- I disagree with a lot of people about the subplots, i really enjoy the mayority of them, in fact my complain is that Eloise plot didnt last long enought... did she get feminist friends?? did she get political about women rights? i just hate that her feminist political plot derive in she been friend with a guy for who she may o may not have romantic feelings... come on! this is bridgerton if you want to add romance add real romance, if you want to get political do political stuff, we cut out before the meetings, we didnt saw the content of the political propaganda... And talking about Eloise 

3.- Im really really glad that she found out about Penelope, im glad the she call her out for ruining Marina life, i know that in the books no one find out until the four book and that is Collin the first one but i think Ms Wiselton is fundamentaly diferent in the tv show; in the books she is pretty much harmless, more like a frame divise, in the tv show she hold so much power and influence, is good, it would add drama later, and at the end of the day we want drama. 

4.- I love lady feaderinton (i have no idea how to speel her name dont hate me im still sick ) Penelope´s mom, and her little dseudo romance with her husband´s cousin, it was unexpected but fun, i wich it would be a real full romance! come netflix!! this is bridgerton! and they are the kind of the bad guys! let Lady feaderinton have an affair with her death husband´s cousin/ daughter fiance! that the kind of thing we expect for you! 

5.- My favorite episode was the wedding episode, LIKE YES EDWINA YOUR FIANCE IS IN LOVE WITH YOUR SISTER, ouch that must hurt, i loooooove that she didn´t forgive her right away, like you could feel the presure poor edwina have over her, she had to be sweet and perfec, she had to married well,  i like that she put herself first, what i really hate is that the TV show cut her love story, in the books she is in love with an scholar, i hope the show expand on that, maybe she had a secret relationship while she was with Antony, we could have a dramatic moment when she finish the relationship with the scholar after the proposal,  i don´t understeand why the cut that, it could provide SO MUCH DRAMA 

6.- I  don´t know why but i hate much of the camera movement this season, must of the dramatic escene where blurry and unfocus... was netflix?? or what just my head? 

7.- Kate and Antony quemistry was off the chart o my god!! but i must admit, episode 6 and 7 drag the hole thing a little bit, like yes you two love eachoters, your sister alredy dumb him please end my mysery and be together!!

8.- They change so many things, must i can understeand but why cut Antony fear of death?? like in the Books he is so afraid of diying that he act like a unfaitful husband to kate so she would not suffer whe he inevitable die... so crazy mental gymnastic there but a fun read; and one of the many good things about the first season is that we saw the couple actually marryed and dealing with problems after the wedding, but noooooo, why repeat a succesfull trick, we had to make time for simon´s friend new club subplot! and talking about things that go no where 

9.- Benedict was the worse this season, im sorry for the Benedic fans in the world, poor rich white man!! he is unsure of his talent!! he get into a fancy school of arts when he sleep with the naked models and drink and party every day but boohooooo his brother pay for his spot! poor rich man :c, aght..... like what kind of art academy is that??? no because a woman in naked it´s mean she´s gonna sleep with the artist??? why is this the dramma that had to have sexines! why not??? i don´t know!! edwina and her non existed scholar??? Eloise and the common boy??  miss feaderington and her new lover?? or what about the main couple of the series!! 

10.- Marina was my favorite last season, i´m glad we saw a little bit of her, im happy she had her babyes, they were adorable, i´m glad her husband was a nice person, i hope that when everybody find out about Penelope in a few season she come back and punch her in the face, I HOPE NOTHING BAD HAPPEND TO HER, I MEAN IT WOULD BE A BOMMER IF THEY KILL HER OFF JUST TO PAIR HER HUSBAND WITH A BRIDGERTON GIRL

11.- I like the queen, the tv runner love the queen, the queen love the queen, please stop with the queen, she is good in small dosis. 

Overal i like the season, is not as good as the first one but still grate, im probably gonna rewatched like eleven times just to be sure
