Okay but Derry Girls in the Bridgerton world, tho. The chaos that could happen people. The chaos.
James has big ol' crush on Benedict because why not? Actually, I totally think James would have a crush on all the older Bridgerton lads because of how cool he thinks they all are.
Even in another world Michelle still can't get laid. She tries but they all want marriage in the end. Who the fuck wants marriage? Also she may or may not have accidentally started a whee fire with a tray of alcohol once.
Orla is the most sought after marriage candidate. The Diamond of the Season. Everybody was surprised. All the bachelors are smitten with her, pulled in by her Orla-ness. She just doesn't notice or even care.
Erin sees Lady Whistledown as her personal rival. Tries to start her own papers. Almost gets arrested.
Claire and Penelope are constantly told they look alike. Neither one can see it. Claire is the only person Lady Whistledown doesn't put in her papers.
Sister Michael is still Sister Michael. She's still the most intimidating person to exist. Even Eloise is intimidated by her.
if i had a nickel for every time someone falsely admitted to being the secret persona of a character played by nicola coughlan, i’d have two nickels. which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice

McGee had told me that she loved teen shows but often found the characters unrealistic. “The girls were always like the hot person the funny boys fancied. Or they were always sensible, like, ‘Oh, you shouldn’t do this,’ ” she said. She mentioned the character (...) “Like, she was playing the loser, and she’s the coolest, best-looking person I’ve ever seen.” McGee couldn’t relate. “My friends were the most ridiculous,” she said.
“I really like teenagers, and they’re often not well written, particularly in drama. They’re either treated like mini-adults, and it’s weird and sexual, or they’re not treated with the respect they deserve.”
in season 3's prom episode of derry girls, it was clear that the dynamics between the mothers when they were in high school were replicated in the next generation too. The four women attended the prom with Diedre's cousin accompanying her (and then all of them). So we have four girls and a male cousin of one of them which is just like the Derry girls' situation. And Rob was openly gay. Doesn't this hint at James being gay/queer too ?
