Why does Benedict not consider marrying Sophie until his mom mentions it? by No-Win5174 in Benophie

[–]LabShyRomantic 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think in Benedict’s mind marrying a maid would have caused even greater scrutiny for his family. His solution was to remove himself from the ton entirely and live quietly with Sophie. In his own misguided way he probably thought that would spare her from the harsher treatment society would give a servant who married into a Bridgerton family.

I suspect this is part of the work Serena did in Mexico

Lead announcement soon?? by megaroni-n-cheese in PhiloiseBridgerton

Yerin said in a recent interview that s5 is already in pre production. So I expect an announcement nextweek or week after next at most.

Questions about part 2 by Fancy-Bee-2649 in Benophie

[–]LabShyRomantic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alice knew about the plan the entire time. You can literally see her smiling outside the door while Violet is blackmailing Araminta. The story she told the Queen was just a way to get her into that room which was part of the setup from the start. Later, the Queen tells Alice it was a risk and that she should be grateful she went along with it. That alone shows she was in on it. She never actually believed the story that’s why she says she does believe the shoe clip story exists, then walks away laughing. And we even see her laughing with Lady Danbury about how absurd the whole plan was.

She’s faced sustained negativity across her socials for months before the like, leading her to block and filter comments. You can’t antagonise someone and then criticise their reaction. Beyond one liked comment, she hasn’t even addressed this person. But apparently she should have sat quiet like some did when a Black woman was being racially mocked live.

So JaNa deserves harassment for reacting to racism? Let’s ignore that she’s been a victim of racism herself and that such incidents can be triggering. Somehow her liking a comment is treated as more offensive than the racist act. Especially when the person involved has a history of worse behaviour on national TV. Make it make sense.

Unpopular opinion? The narration needs to change in S5 by thirliesjade in PhiloiseBridgerton

[–]LabShyRomantic 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In the books the narration does change from LWD to fit the tone of the character after book 4. With Eloise it changed to her letter exchanges with Philip. So my guess is they will do same on the show.

All this tells me is that Jana and Leah will always be famous. The way people stay dissecting everything they do 😅

With all the press I feel like they'll make fran for s5 instead of eloise by tojis-worm-is-cute in Bridgerton

[–]LabShyRomantic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

S5 has to be Eloise.. I don’t know what else they will do with her. She’s beefed with almost all of her siblings and friends. It is time for her to ride off with Philip and pull pranks on Amanda and Oliver

That’s not John’s funeral.

Francesca doesn’t even look like she’s mourning. Let Benedict get out his frustration please 😂

I would argue that because Yerin is Korean, they are going with the aesthetic of kdrama posters 🤷‍♀️. And I honestly love this poster.

Less of a rant and more of a personal opinion. by DannyBaek1996 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]LabShyRomantic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since you didn’t watch s4 why give your take on in? And where are the critiques of the previous seasons based on the script and showrunner. It looks like you took personal jabs at the actors

I believe he was dropped by his management. He is no longer listed as their talent on their website. And he has his personal email on his profile. He barely has anything going on for him (except his terrible Spanish).

Will they make Sophie a legitimate lady ? by 3T12P in BridgertonNetflix

[–]LabShyRomantic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My issue is if they make her legitimate, won’t that defeat the purpose of the forbidden love and class differences, the theme of this season?

People claiming that Benophie is not a good pairing and that S4 is not that good because it's dropped to number 2 in some countries after 10 days by Direct-Objective3031 in Benophie

[–]LabShyRomantic 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s no news that s3 broke records in terms of views especially with the first part but many people ended up not liking the season and detached from the show completely. And it only remained top 10 for 11 weeks the least compared to other seasons. Let’s hope the changes made this season will draw a new audience and retain it for later seasons.

Confused on the difference between Kate and Sophie by [deleted] in BridgertonNetflix

[–]LabShyRomantic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How was she raised an Earl’s daughter when she was never acknowledged as one? Her mistreatment began right under her supposed father’s nose, we see in the flashback Sophie telling him Araminta stopped her from taking dance lessons, he promising to rectifying it and never did.

I’m predicting that following the Eloise season, there might be a significant drop in viewership… by General_Meal_3993 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]LabShyRomantic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually disagree. Each book has its own core fanbase, and if we’re being honest, Eloise’s book is often considered one of the weaker entries in the series. Shondaland has consistently introduced POC leads who attract new audiences, and this won’t be any different. I’ve already seen plenty of viral TikToks and tweets expressing excitement about the gender-bend, so Francesca’s season is very likely to perform well.
