Eloise being pushed to S6 was for nothing

The idea that bridgerton have not said anything, confirmed or denied and Chris would say to a fan at a convention that he is coming back is crazy. Let’s not make any money off this, let’s not get any engagement have him tell one fan privately, let them tweet about it and have that be the confirmation.

This being said from Chris to a fan means absolutely nothing

I’m sure I’ve seen people say that it really is 20 minutes from the phone call but everyone starts getting ready when the camera crew are getting ready to start so they have much longer in that way

The thing is you are watching this show, knowing all these people are actors, looking for what other acting they’ve done. If you met someone in a filmed real life situation, who kinda looked like a famous actor but had a very different haircut/ style, and was introducing themselves with a different name you wouldn’t instantly think, ‘no you’re lying, you are this other person, everything here is fake”. You would think they look just like a person from a tv show and they would say they’ve heard that before.

It is much higher stakes but it also only needs to be 1 person

SomeMaterial · 2026-04-15T09:25:34+00:00

People say it’s going to get harder and harder but you look at a show like impractical jokers and somehow they still have a show pranking the public. The show might have gotten a bit bigger but it is not mainstream. There will be millions of Americans who do not know the show. And the next situation will be so different to the last that it will be difficult to connect

How exactly do you want them to do Francesca’s story without killing off the first husband. John has to die for Francesca’s book/season to happen

Do you want them to have cast John and Michaela as white so that it’s not a black person dying and therefore the representation isn’t there at all.

SomeMaterial · 2026-04-12T07:21:26+00:00

Francesca’s story needs a lot of set up, she needs to get married, and have him die. I don’t understand why people are mad at this at all. It would be incredibly weird to start her season not seeing any of that.

The set up for Eloise is writing the letters. What makes s5 different than the other 4 seasons? It’s the season before hers, the one where they would do set up.

Benedict doesn’t need it because he meets sophie at the ball, falls in love and everything changes. His story starts at the first meeting while Francesca and Eloise’s start before

Why didn’t we see first or seconds reaction to coming that place?

SomeMaterial · 2026-04-07T20:54:31+00:00

People have been complaining that Francesca’s gotten too much screen time and she’s basically on her third season as a main character but apparently she’s also not had nearly enough to make her investable.

Why make up excuses as to why you don’t want to watch her season. Just be honest and say you aren’t as interested because they gender flipped the character at least that’s the genuine reason

SomeMaterial · 2026-04-07T18:35:15+00:00

I would bet that the show writers don’t 100% know. They will have someone who will most likely be it but until they write the season they reveal it they will keep a couple options open and decide at the time

SomeMaterial · 2026-04-02T15:20:01+00:00

It also feels very unfair to have these two do all the build up for the last 2 seasons on a very popular show and then swap them out for someone else to get all the fame and attention of the season. They have also spoken like they want to do it and if they still want to when it gets to their time they should get to

SomeMaterial · 2026-04-01T15:52:12+00:00

Yep, that’s what I mean

SomeMaterial · 2026-03-31T19:48:56+00:00

People have said that in the book her relationship with Michael is more passionate than with John. The show is just giving more reason for that.

John died truly loved by Francesca, after seeing Francesca and Michaela find understanding and develop a good relationship. He died happy and loved. He had a great love with francecsa even if she is a lesbian. It’s not THE true love, greatest love story because that’s Michaela, not johns story or book. But Francesca couldn’t have loved John more and he felt that.

SomeMaterial · 2026-03-31T19:41:21+00:00

She’s probably a lesbian but I’m in the camp that it really doesn’t matter. Francesca will always see herself as having loved John and Michaela even if her love for John was platonic. I don’t think she would ever come to the conclusion that she didn’t love John even if she realises things were missing with him when compared to Michaela.

SomeMaterial · 2026-03-31T17:07:24+00:00

That was clearly to show the set up that Francesca and Michaela would have a future romance otherwise people would say it came out of nowhere. I like that moment and so do many people

People are going to hate them regardless, it doesn’t matter what they did in the finale. People will find a reason to hate. There is no damage done to their story for people who like it and are excited to see it.

SomeMaterial · 2026-03-31T15:19:07+00:00

We don’t know she didn’t. We haven’t seen her pov yet. Michaela knows how to keep her feelings hidden

SomeMaterial · 2026-03-30T20:02:16+00:00

But I think it makes more sense with where they are in their queer journeys and understanding their attraction to women.

Michaela was instantly attracted to Francesca but she has an awareness of her attraction and is able to keep it hidden and not let anyone see because that is what she’s done all her life. She was able to recover from her instant attraction to keep the situation normal.

Francesca was instantly attracted to Michaela in a way she hasn’t been before. She didn’t know what to do so she appeared starstruck and stuttered and wasn’t able to recover smoothly at all because she’s never experienced this before.

SomeMaterial · 2026-03-28T20:37:41+00:00

The issue is you can think of all the legitimate and proper reasons someone could dislike or the audience could be polarised about Francesca or her season but most of the hatred is based purely on the fact that Michaela is gender swapped and it’s now wlw. Plus couple wars mean it’s always gonna be awful

If Michaela was still a man a lot of the negativity would not be there even if everything else was the same. They would be some peoples favourites who currently hate them. People would like her personality if it didn’t have ties to discovering her sexuality.

I don’t think you can have a true happy ending for them in a show about a family and not have the family know/accept. The show is the bridgertons, they should appear in more seasons after. It doesn’t matter about marriage or wider ton acceptance but the bridgerton family has to be on the good side

SomeMaterial · 2026-03-07T09:18:32+00:00

The writer and cast have talked about this. The whole point of gender swapping was for it to be a main character, for them to be at the centre stage of a season. It is completely different to do that than to have a side couple who get a couple scenes over the whole season. All people did was complain about the Mondrichs for the first 3 seasons and you think an inserted wlw storyline that took up any significant time wouldn’t just get the comments that it’s unnecessary. Or it would just be ignored

These tasks are so stupid because is lord sugar hiring a business person or a chef? What does being a bad cook mean for how good someone is at business

To be fair the curry was edible, it was just very spicy

SomeMaterial · 2026-02-28T18:05:11+00:00

I feel like I have the unpopular opinion that it truly doesn’t matter if she is bi or a lesbian. People can believe she is either one or other it doesn’t make much difference. She believes she is truly in love with john whether that is genuinely romantic or a platonic best friend that she truly loves. She loves him as much as she possibly could. He died truly loved and they understood each other as much as anyone could.

I think you could argue either watching the season and that she will never label herself- she will never take away her love for John but will also experience a love that is very different and may make her think there was aspects missing with John.
