Luke said he purposely didn't have colin eat during the first half of the season. He says so to Pen in his dream. He's so wrapped up in her, this notoriously hungry boy can't even eat. Well, except when he ate that iced bun while staring at her; after watching her buy one and lick the icing off her fingers. That made him hungry. 😂
One of my favorite moments this season (outside of the Polin scenes) is Colin and Violet's talk at the ball in Episode 3. She says "Because he gathered the courage to ask," and Colin immediately looks at Pen across the room. Violet follows his gaze, immediately knows he's in love with Pen, and she becomes very still, for just a moment. When she turns back to Colin, you can tell she is happy, and emotional, but pretends they are still discussing Francesca. Her acting in this moment is so beautiful. She doesn't gape at Pen, or widen her eyes, or raise her eyebrows, her jaw doesn't drop in shock, she just becomes very still, so we know that she knows. She also knows her son is afraid to speak his feelings, so she encourages him gently while maintaining his cover that the question is about Francesca's prospects. So much is communicated without saying anything, and it captivates me every time I see it.
That scene is one of my favourites as well. Violet is an incredible mother, and over the seasons, she had some of the most iconic and best lines - the one at the ball and, of course, her reaction certainly being one of them. 🫶🏻
You are the only reactor who comment on the nod he does before he gets out the carriage. It was such a great acting choice by Luke bc you can literally see Colin decide in that moment that she is it for him and he is going to marry her. He won’t wait another second.
I just love your breakdown of each character. There were things I didn’t even notice (binged it 4 times), but will re-watch it and catch those things you’ve mentioned!
Love your breakdown of the episode, but that carriage scene is sooooo much more than the "fingering" many focus on. It is some of the best acting in Bridgerton, the small nuances b/w them, the sincere looks, and the way they communicate w/ no talking. Such attention to detail. I have also been impressed w/ Violet this season, she is the most astute actresses and her slight facial expressions say it all....thank you. Every time I looked at your reactions, I swear I mirrored them.
Thank you for your kind words! There is so much to their micro facial expressions in so many scenes. I could talk about that for hours. 😄 The cast is simply incredible.
I SO agree that the carriage scene is much better, passionate and beautiful in the show compared to the book. It is beyond the physical intimacy, it is sooo full of emotion, of joy and the fulfillment of long denied (on Colin’s part) and long hoped for (by Pen) feelings.
I love your reactions, your theories about some scenes,the little details you give us ( for example, in episode 3, I hadn't realized Violet was watching Colin all the time after he asked her that question and it was you who made me notice it and I was absolutely thrilled). I also appreciate very much how emotional you feel towards the characters, when you said you were broken when Anthony cried ( I was broken too and I also cried with him...). I just love your videos, keep up your good work! 🙃🙃👍👍
In the lead up to this season, I've rewatched the show twice, rewatched all Polin scenes additionally, and listened to Romancing Mr. Bridgerton twice as well. Safe to say, it's my favourite season as well! ❤️😄 Also, I love Nicola so much! She's not only beautiful but also incredibly smart and funny. The perfect Penelope. 😍
I really wanted him to know she was lw before he proposed but the one thing that makes me feel better about it is that Nicola says this is the moment they truly see eachother, so i think even though he doesnt know her secret he does know her.
Yes, me too. 😭 They also said there will be another "love confession" in part 2 because the carriage confession, as beautiful as it was, was not THE love confession. Fingers crossed it is after he finds out! 🤞🏻
Debling would be perfect for Eloise. He's gone all the time, and she would be free to do whatever she wants. He wants a woman who has her own passions and interests, who doesn't mind bucking societal expectations, just like he does. They really would be a good match.
If Cressida wasn’t such a twat 😂 I kind of wanted her and Lord Debling to work out. They seemed to have things in common and would have been a good pairing I think.
It's just a little silly. The way he nonchalantly says it. As if he was offered an extra napkin or something minor, and then he's just like, "Yeah, okay.". 😂
I think that’s why it works, he’s so disengaged that he really just doesn’t care, he’s just taking up space physically while his head is full of speculation about Pen.

Omg, that makes so much sense! Our boy is IN LOVE! 😭😭❤️

I loved this so much! Because in the book, we didn't get his thoughts during the carriage scene. This was the perfect way of showing it. 😊

I love when intelligent people make videos reacting to shows i like. Thank you, great commentary.
What a nice compliment. Thank you so much! 🤗

Thank you so, so much! This really means a lot to me, and I am so happy you enjoy the videos. 🥹🫶🏻
Bridgerton is just incredible. ❤️
I love the book ive listen to it multiple times. The show is even better. Nicola and Luke are doing an amazing job! My favorite season ❤❤

The comment under that Colin's finger video is funnier. It said "It's muscle memory" or smth like that. I laugh for hours literally.
Oh, naurr.. 🤣🤣

That's a great take! I believe she would also respect him a lot for his interests as well as his profession, and it could actually work.
I really liked Lord Debling a lot. If she could not marry for love he was a good choice.
Yes, I agree. :)
If Cressida wasn’t such a twat 😂 I kind of wanted her and Lord Debling to work out. They seemed to have things in common and would have been a good pairing I think.
Oh I love the humor in this season❤❤❤❤
It really is chef's kiss! 😄❤️🤌🏻
What's wrong with that "fine"?
It's just a little silly. The way he nonchalantly says it. As if he was offered an extra napkin or something minor, and then he's just like, "Yeah, okay.". 😂
@@JilTheReal ahh, I got it😁 thanks
