Fun fact: Nicola Coughlan (who plays Penelope) is native Irish! In the print shop, she's actually using her natural accent instead of adopting a British one!
She actually wasn't. She was doing an Irish accent of that period and place. (English is not my first language, so if anyone is more knowledgeable about the subject, go on)
She's Irish, she went to the same university as me in Galway, west of Ireland. She was in Derry Girls before Bridgerton, but in that she used a Northern Irish dialect, because the show was set there.
There is a Whistledown issue in "An Offer from a Gentleman" (book 3 Benedict and Sophie's story) that says that Miss Featherington had been visiting Irish cousins abroad!
The chemistry between Simone and Jonathan SELLS THIS SEASON!!! They are amazing together and honestly, made me like Anthony as a leading man even more than the Duke. And I could not believe it when I found out that Jonathan is gay in real life, made me appreciate his acting even more knowing he's a part of the family.
Jonathon is gay?! Wow! I agree about his acting. He really brings it with those sultry stares. Maybe he just closes his eyes and pretends that Simone is Luke Thompson.
The mom (Lady Mary) married A POOR, which was made worse by the fact that he already had a child (Kate) and that she was the diamond of her season. How could a diamond end up with a COMMONER?! The scandal *clutches ruby necklace*!
Something that I feel needs mentioning more is the pair of geese holding up Anthony in the park just before Kate arrives. A pair of geese symbolises the imminent arrival of a soulmate, so kudos to the writers/producers/directors for that little Easter egg.
and still is in fact - since season 3's trailer (and a sneak peak of a scene) has been released. We need to start talking The Pink Podcast into watching Derry Girls (think they'll be ok with the Irish accents)
@@Scott-yy I've seen only good things, you won't be sorry (though subtitles might be needed for some of the northern Irish accents - and the context will make a bit more sense if you look into Irish history but none of that makes the show any less hilarious.
I'm only in the intro but Rizzo is really giving me severe Anthony vibes. He expects the same excellence in Bridgerton season two as Anthony expects in a wife.
@@Sun.Shine- man, I got confused for a second about the your majesty bit because no joke in the fifteen odd years I've had this account, literally no one has commented on my username.
Jonathan and Simone have unbelievable chemistry - Chris Van Dusen, the showrunner, has stated that they’re like magnets and it is absolutely true. Magnetic! ❤️
Nicola is Irish - I love that nod to her, and I love how they made her slip the manuscripts to the printer but I did wonder right from the start whether she’d be able to stay hidden.
When Anthony was looking at all the paperwork that was just showing how much time he spends dealing with the estate matters. Being the eldest son it’s his responsibility to deal with all that stuff.
About the age of the girls when presented: Colin is said to be 21 this season, so he was 20 last season. Daphne is right behind Colin in age of the Bridgerton siblings, meaning she was 19 at most, when she got married in season 1. Eliose is right behind Daphne in age and in season 1 Penelope said that Violet Bridgerton had allowed Eloise to make her debut a season late to concentrate on her studies some more. I would take all of that to mean that young women make their debut and try to find a husband at the ripe age of 17-18
Age of debutantes was around 16-18 years old, it depended on more factors. Some girls were out once they were 15. Lydia Bennet as the youngest daughter was and favourite of her mother attended balls as a 15-year-old, but it was stated in the text that she was considered too young to be in society. Usually, girls were not supposed to find husband immediately, they marry as 18 year-old or older (however, 26-27 year-old women were regarded as "too old" and likely to be spinsters). Younger girls could have marry (even before their debut) without their parents' consent in Scotland. They were cases of kidnapped heiresses forced to marry. Otherwise, you needed approval of your parents or guardians. It was customary for men to ask for his betrothed's father blessing. On the other hand, men were supposed to wait. It was because men were supposed to provide for their wives and children. If you were not an heir, you usually did not have a position when you could marry. Due to studies etc., you have to wait until you were 25 years old, sometimes even 30 years old. Even men who were heirs to estates did not usually marry as young as women did, but it happened sometimes. Wife's dowry was usually intended for the daughters and as a pin money fór wife (married women were basically ried to their husbands regarding law, pin money was a little sum just for them). Realistically, Colin as a third born son would have to be employed. We never hear of any estate of distant cousins' which could be inherited by Benedict or Colin. While both brothers likely have a good sum of money, they would not be provided for by their brother long-term. Brothers only provided for unmaried sisters and for brothers in young age (hello, Gregory). Once the heir provides for his brother's education, his duty Is over. Benedict and Colin are supposed to study ať a university. Respectable professions were in military or as clergymen, other possibility was law, sailoring, and medicine (funnily regarded as the least respectable). Business was scandalous, being looked down upon, but Is definitely an option.
Jonathan Bailey‘s acting is amazing. When I saw his interview with GQ I couldn’t believe what a positive giggly person he is in real life. Such a Ray of sunshine. Also I recommend watching „Crashing“. You’ll see a totally different side of him. It’s so fun!
@@agenttheater5 "The Taming Of The Shrew" is my favourite Shakespeare piece. I used to know Katherina's monologue, at the end of the play, by heart. The way I perceived it, is that Katherina held this speech with an eye wink, she knew she could wrap Petruchio around her finger any time. You know, letting men be the hero, but pulling the strings in the background. 😜
I really really missed daddy Duke, but loved Kate. I'm Indian so i was fairly pleased with the representation, honestly. It was pretty good by Hollywood standards and honestly made sense for the story.
Yea I really love they’re inclusivity, when I heard the Duke wasn’t coming back I was hoping they would just replace him with another black person, but continue expanding the ethnic representation on the show. They delivered 😊
@@PinkPopcast right? For me it's 90-95% there. They even included the title track from one of the most famous Bollywood movies. The one thing I'd change is towards the end of the season so i won't spoil it, but kate, Edwina and Mary's outfits and jewellery all have Indian influence and i love it so much😊
One thing that makes me hope they go for all eight seasons is looking forward to Hyacinth's story. First, it's just being plain fun and a romance where the couple actually gets together very quickly and the rest of the book is focused on them being a badass couple with a story about them having an adventure together and not a will they won't they we know will end up together. But even better is that Gareth - Hyacinth's love interest - is Lady Danbury's grandson, guaranteeing another black main character. Also Gareth is fantastic, so they have every opportunity to bring him in earlier and they damn well should.
AHHHHHHH I can't WAITTTT, the scream I just let out seeing this. I personally enjoyed season 2 more than the season 1 (even tho season 2 has its flaws as well)
The best part of this was how appalled Rizzo was by Benji’s negging examples 🤣🤣🤣 what a lil cinnamon roll. Also I need Benji’s sweatshirt in, like, 11 colors.
5:18 The bit about the serial killer reveal had me laughing SO HARD 🤣🤣🤣 17:51 When Benji explained to Rizzo what negging is and gave examples and Rizzo was so offended on behalf of people on the receiving end of insults like that. Love it. Can't wait for the rest of your S2 Bridgerton reactions!
There were so many times this season where I thought “omg I can’t wait to see how rizzo and benji react to this” so I’m so excited that it’s finally here!! Once again, top tier entertainment! Hope you’re both doing well, and thank you for putting so much work into these reactions for us!!💖
Season 2 was so good and made me realize how toxic Daphne's & Simon's relationship was at the the beginning. Anthony & Kate on the other hand are just *chef's kiss* 👌
I like this season more than season 1, although it isn't perfect, one storyline in particular I thought was weak, but overall really good. The chemistry between Simone and Jonathan is absolutely amazing!
I just finish season 2, can't wait to see all your reaction!!! Jonathan Bailey is amazing actor omg, some scene he didn't need say a word just with his expression gossh i love him so much.
There's certainly a "taming of the shrew" ref in this, just as "10 things I hate about you" was adapted from it. The eldest sister being named Kate isn't random.
I just can’t get over this season. I can already foresee that it will be my favorite of all the oncoming Bridgerton seasons. I am so enraged we didn’t have a couple more steamy scenes and a beautiful wedding with Kanthony. I needed at least 2 more episodes to this season😭😭😭
Some believed in that time that books (or specifically novels) would encourage slothfulness and laziness in people (particularly in women) as it would encourage them to do nothing but lounge around on the sofa all day reading (I took a Jane Austen course - her characters are generally defined by what they read, ie Mr Collins never reads novels).
@@PinkPopcast Basically. I mean Austen wasn't above poking fun at some authors, books and book readers - ie in Sense and Sensibility Edward teased Marianne at one point that if she had a fortune of her own she'd buy every edition of her favourite books to prevent them from falling into 'unworthy hands', and the early gothic (pre Poe and Bronte gothic that is) novels Catherine from Northanger Abbey reads way too much of and now believes herself to be in one, but that's still part of the storyline and as I said, we learn a lot about her heroines from the books they read. It's funny to think about how opinions change - first people say that fictional stories shouldn't be read, then they're saying that no one's reading enough books full stop, and in between it we have people announcing the end of books since the radio was invented, a prediction that has yet to be fulfilled even in the age of reading books on a screen.
I agree with Benji, I too have a crush on Benedict! I love that Nicola Coughlan got to use an Irish accent on the show, though I'm not sure that's precisely the Irish accent she has in real life.
OK. But what is "diaper butt" Benji? 🤣 The headphones are fierce! 12:14 definitely what I'm looking for.... 😈 Another good vid guys! I'm happy y'all are spreading out the episodes! Looove watching you two. Can't wait to see your reaction to episode 3 which was my fav of the season.
Finally! Your channel blew up with your Bridgerton reactions! Now Season 2 is here to propel you guys to new heights! You deserve to be watched by A LOT MORE people! 🙌
I’m excited to see you guys react to this. My emotions got played so hard from this season. Everything was so good. It was literally better than season 1.
2:39 what was he saying though? 😂 I need to work on my reading lips. I think he was saying, “that’s her. That’s lady Whistledown. That right there. That’s her.” Or thereabouts 😂
I watched the entire season in one sitting and having an existensial crisis afterwards, like, what am I supposed to do until Season 3 comes out? Lol. But this way I get to experience it again with you guys.. and though there are MANY Bridgerton reaaction videos out there, yours are by far the ONLY one that I'm looking forward to the most. I can't tell you how many times I thought "Hmm.. wonder what would Rizzo and Benji say about this?" the entire time I watched season 2.
HOW DO YOU GUYS NOT HAVE 1 MILION SUBS YET?? Also, Rizo, have any idea how handsome & precious u are? Crushing. all. day. Benji , well, u are the CUTEST and oh what a badass
I missed you guys!!! love this review...don't know what this says about me since I have watched Bridgerton S2 maybe 5 times....but I loved it was a truly refreshing change of pace...loved the speed courting section with Anthony and the debutantes...hilarious! Kate shines from the start & challenges Anthony which is great as their scenes highlight their magical chemistry
YESSSS I’VE BEEN SO EXCITED FOR THIS! Your Bridgerton videos are how I discovered your channel! I can’t wait for you guys to see what the Queen and Eloise have in store for this season
This made me smile all the way through 😊 you so much really means a lot been dealing with things and this shed a little light. Can't wait for more content
Fun Fact: The List that Anthony wrote with all the Ladies has a Lady Julia (a romantic) and a Miss Quinn (an exceptional writer) on it. Julia Quinn is the author of the Bridgerton books. :) And also, back then they said six-and-twenty to twenty-six. I don't know when they changed it but in Germany we still say six-and-twenty (sechs und zwanzig). And i really hate that. It is so much easier to say twenty-six, because you write the 2 first. I guess that change never reached Germany...
Season 2 was amazing to watch this year! Since I am obsessed with Kanthony, of course I would also be obsessed with Simone Ashley and Jonathan Bailey😭😩
When I watched season 2, there were moments I thought "oh I can't wait to see the PinkPodcast reactions to this" but you spoke over the whole thing 😢 Gents, your season 1 reactions were world class 👏
Ok but rewatching these since Jonathan Bailey was cast as Fyiero in the WICKED movies. My god-he’s perfect for the role. I recommend checking out his musical theater work because he sings beautifully, and honestly should win an Oscar for convincingly making the straights fall in love with him LOL. Lastly, his pride and openness he has about being part of the LGBTQ+ community makes my heart so happy! We need more people like him!
12:24 Daphne is 21 in season 1 and when she got married. Eloise was 18 in season 1, and is now 18-19 (not sure of the time jump). Kate is considered to be an “old maid” or too old to marry at 26. (Meanwhile Anthony was 29-30) but in the books Kate was 21. Edwina is 17 in the books and is likely around the same age in the show. (So Edwina is probably 17-22). Which as young as that seems, is not the youngest women have gotten married. Women at some point in time, got married almost immediately or as soon as possible after they got their period. The youngest to have ever gotten married, according to Google, was around 11 years old. (This is not including royalty or nobility back when they just signed a paper and gave the husband the dowry after the father (of the bride) was paid around the same amount of money the dowry is worth. The fact that this implies that you are buying your wife, is just a bit messed up).
5:46 always had a crush on Benedict, but at this point its pure love for Luke (the actor). So you are not alone there. Ben & Benji, sounds about right! 😍😁 And you guys need to dress up like them, just for the occasion. Sir Rizzo & Sir Benji 😁❤️
Fun fact: Nicola Coughlan (who plays Penelope) is native Irish! In the print shop, she's actually using her natural accent instead of adopting a British one!
I was looking into her the other day and found out she's a few years away from 40!! My mind was bloody blown! She has such a baby face.

Not the Saw music 😂😂 5:24 had me dead
I’m so happy you found you guys to share my obsession for Bridgerton hahaha
The "Older sister, younger sister thing you mentioned at around 10 minutes, is called the "Taming of the Shrew" trope.
26:52 lady featherington meantion how he (the father) “cast his only son out to the Americas.” So I believe the son is from England.
Finally! Your channel blew up with your Bridgerton reactions! Now Season 2 is here to propel you guys to new heights! You deserve to be watched by A LOT MORE people! 🙌

Already watched the compilation video and rewatching the separate ones to get the views up. You two deserve the world. Love you
❤️❤️🙌🙌
I’m excited to see you guys react to this. My emotions got played so hard from this season. Everything was so good. It was literally better than season 1.
5:23 bravo! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
2:39 what was he saying though? 😂 I need to work on my reading lips.
I think he was saying, “that’s her. That’s lady Whistledown. That right there. That’s her.” Or thereabouts 😂
I watched the entire season in one sitting and having an existensial crisis afterwards, like, what am I supposed to do until Season 3 comes out? Lol. But this way I get to experience it again with you guys.. and though there are MANY Bridgerton reaaction videos out there, yours are by far the ONLY one that I'm looking forward to the most. I can't tell you how many times I thought "Hmm.. wonder what would Rizzo and Benji say about this?" the entire time I watched season 2.
Y'all are doin the lord's work bc I have a hole in my life after binging this season. I loved it so much T_T
Hahah we’ve got you! ✝️✝️
HOW DO YOU GUYS NOT HAVE 1 MILION SUBS YET??
Also, Rizo, have any idea how handsome & precious u are? Crushing. all. day.
Benji , well, u are the CUTEST and oh what a badass
I agree.... Let's get them there! Everybody pass the word to all of your family and friends!! Worth it!
i loved jonathan baileys acting since i saw him in crashing and i loved him here. hes so incredible in bridgeton ahhhh
This season had a more emotional impact than the first season
Ahhhhhh I can't wait! Got my masala chai and scones ready!
“Now go in the corner and dance alone” 😂😂😂😂😂
You both never disappoint! I laughed throughout the video 😂 next episode gonna be rollercoaster ride
I missed you guys!!! love this review...don't know what this says about me since I have watched Bridgerton S2 maybe 5 times....but I loved it was a truly refreshing change of pace...loved the speed courting section with Anthony and the debutantes...hilarious! Kate shines from the start & challenges Anthony which is great as their scenes highlight their magical chemistry
24:03 the eyebrow raise at the SAME TIME lmaoo they're hilarious
There were so many scenes in which Lady Danbury appeared and I screamed “bad bitch in reeeeeeeed” and this was all to you lol.
Hahaha it’s the only thing we can call her now 😂
Yes!!!
Ohhh how I have been waiting for this moment. Welcome back boys! Today is going to be a good day! ❤️
🥰🥰
Ahhh this season was so beautiful! Have already watched it probably six times from start to finish and been waiting on your upload! 💜✨
The queen is a caricature at this point… her wigs are the show!
They’re sooo good this season!!
They are characters itself! 😁
12:45 ahh yes loved that Parent Trap scene 😅👏🏽
17:55 Benji should do this "word of the day" per episode of Bridgerton because I am hyped!!! Please do more of those!!
Also Rizzo’s face when he was giving examples 😀
YESSSS I’VE BEEN SO EXCITED FOR THIS! Your Bridgerton videos are how I discovered your channel! I can’t wait for you guys to see what the Queen and Eloise have in store for this season
We’re reeeady 🤓🤓
I have been waiting for this since LAST weekend! I found you guys because of Bridgerton season 1! Can't wait for Wednesday.
13:26 Normally I'm not one for a posse but I'd love to be part of one for Queen Charlotte (thought they're called ladies in waiting).
Agree!
And they are, but all that came out was ladies lol
the mean girls audio was chef’s kiss 👩🍳 💋🤌🏻
This made me smile all the way through 😊 you so much really means a lot been dealing with things and this shed a little light. Can't wait for more content
AHHHH I can't wait for this to premiere like I've been waiting for y'all to react cuz ik it was gonna be funny
We did have a lot of fun with this episode lol
If you've ever watched BBC's Merlin, the actor who plays Leon plays the new Lord Featherington!
Ooohh, I did watch that! -Benji
my reaction when i saw his name in the credits was just "Sir Leon!!! He lives!!" XD
@@JessicaBiilor Didn’t he basically go immortal XD
Wait whaaaat? That's sir Leon? I've seen both shows multiple times and I never noticed it!
I need to know where you got your hoodie Rizzo!!! I love it!! I love yalls reactions, I'm so ready to go through this season with you both! ♡♡
Im hyped for this. This season was such an improvement!
Fun Fact: The List that Anthony wrote with all the Ladies has a Lady Julia (a romantic) and a Miss Quinn (an exceptional writer) on it. Julia Quinn is the author of the Bridgerton books. :)
And also, back then they said six-and-twenty to twenty-six. I don't know when they changed it but in Germany we still say six-and-twenty (sechs und zwanzig). And i really hate that. It is so much easier to say twenty-six, because you write the 2 first. I guess that change never reached Germany...
In Czech Republic they use both, which is even weirder
Crazy! At least it is not as bad as the French count. “soixante dix neuf” (Sixty-ten-nine which is 79). They are doing math instead of basic numbers.
Season 2 was amazing to watch this year!
Since I am obsessed with Kanthony, of course I would also be obsessed with Simone Ashley and Jonathan Bailey😭😩
i'm gonna stay up till 4am to watch this video when it drops i'm dead serious
Let’s goooo!! Haha we appreciate it, but no hard feelings if you fall asleep 😂
I was waiting for this!! Anyways, I liked a lot. Is a new type of love story from season 1 so I enjoyed
When I watched season 2, there were moments I thought "oh I can't wait to see the PinkPodcast reactions to this" but you spoke over the whole thing 😢 Gents, your season 1 reactions were world class 👏
Omg I’m so excited I have been waiting for so long ahhhhhhh😭
Lolol same.. since the second we finished season 1 😂
Ok but rewatching these since Jonathan Bailey was cast as Fyiero in the WICKED movies. My god-he’s perfect for the role. I recommend checking out his musical theater work because he sings beautifully, and honestly should win an Oscar for convincingly making the straights fall in love with him LOL. Lastly, his pride and openness he has about being part of the LGBTQ+ community makes my heart so happy! We need more people like him!
Not Rizzo and Benji looking like a dynamic duo from The Disney Channel in the thumbnail.
🥰🥰🥰
12:24 Daphne is 21 in season 1 and when she got married. Eloise was 18 in season 1, and is now 18-19 (not sure of the time jump).
Kate is considered to be an “old maid” or too old to marry at 26. (Meanwhile Anthony was 29-30) but in the books Kate was 21. Edwina is 17 in the books and is likely around the same age in the show. (So Edwina is probably 17-22).
Which as young as that seems, is not the youngest women have gotten married. Women at some point in time, got married almost immediately or as soon as possible after they got their period.
The youngest to have ever gotten married, according to Google, was around 11 years old. (This is not including royalty or nobility back when they just signed a paper and gave the husband the dowry after the father (of the bride) was paid around the same amount of money the dowry is worth. The fact that this implies that you are buying your wife, is just a bit messed up).
5:46 always had a crush on Benedict, but at this point its pure love for Luke (the actor). So you are not alone there. Ben & Benji, sounds about right! 😍😁
And you guys need to dress up like them, just for the occasion. Sir Rizzo & Sir Benji 😁❤️
Cool idea! And do your accents during that whole session! Yes! Right??
Jonathan and Simone MADE this season. ❤️
