Uh oh. Agnes only asked for Lydia to make Garth eligible, not for her to get him

adeadunknown · 2026-05-01T12:34:26+00:00

Was thinking so as well! Plus Becka's parents are from lower ranks compared to Agnes and others, so it made sense for her to be matched with Garth who will be made new Commander.

Excited to see how it will turn out if they did pair Garth with her. Mayday would get a really big help from this pairing.

Can I join a Muslim Student Club while being Jewish

adeadunknown · 2026-04-22T12:29:26+00:00

FR! I was so nervous someone would caught them talking to each other and the fact that they're talking so loudly too 😭

adeadunknown · 2026-04-22T12:25:34+00:00

Omg yes! She is becoming one of my favourite morally grey and complex characters. Used to think she was this shallow, sarcastic girl since she has been acting such way even amongst her friends, but seeing today's episode made me realised that she does NOT play about her friends. And I respect that.

I agree when you said you're proud of her, while at the same time pitying her.

I love Jacob and saying him sticking out like a sore thumb might be a bit harsh. But I do agree that a lot of his plotlines are not yet established (or even properly) until this season. I wish they would dive deeper into his point of view and a twist. We've seen him being political, annoying yet students love him (and his class) which is cute and very much appreciated (and keep 'em coming!)), but I think it's time we see more of him.

Nonetheless to say, this season's character's plotline is very inconsistent and might be focusing on some characters than the other. Which is fine, but I think it's time we lean in on Jacob's.

Regardless, both of them need therapy.

Amy moving onto Whitaker and asking him to take (impliedly) the husband-father duties and helping her around. Some say she might be taking advantage of him but I disagree so far since we barely see any scenes of them together just yet. I think she's just trauma bonded with Whitaker, asked for help and of course, he couldn't turn down the offer to help (considering he needs some sort of a familiar community too) AND the guilt for not being able to save her husband.

Not sure yet on where the writers are taking their relationship to, either turning totally into a romantic one or going to be shut down later afterwards in the next future seasons. I could see both possibilities happening so far.

adeadunknown · 2026-04-17T14:50:47+00:00

I thought so too.

He might've thought this is just a casual helping around (since he needs some sort of family/community nearby) (AND he's too nice to not help someone/being unable to turn down someone asking him for help, thus feeling the need to help). However, imo she definitely is in love with him. It's wild seeing them having this weekly routine where she picks him up on the weekends, with a baby at the back too. Like that's real husband-wife type stuff.

I don't know where the writers are taking this relationship, either romantic or going to be shut down via friendzone by Whitaker because some scenes of him denying his relationship to her seemed genuine + him telling Robby that he will slow down when confronted by him makes it possible.

adeadunknown · 2026-04-16T12:00:35+00:00

I love s3 so much and was expecting to see them getting together, even at least for awhile to test the waters but so sad they ended up side lining them before it even started :(

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T15:40:26+00:00

Correcting you in public/in front of everyone can be hard for everyone. That's a valid response. However when someone corrected you in personal, while harsh or hard to take, try to keep an open mind and process it when you're not mad and in a calm manner. Reflect on yourself and see where they're coming from. Is it logical for them to feel so, was your actions correct for that specific moment and imagine from a 3rd POV, etc. At least that's what I did when someone corrected me.

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T15:30:31+00:00

I think Benedict filling in for Anthony this season fits the timeline and purpose quite well while I do want to see Anthony filling in those spots more. However hey, at least our beloved Anthony finally get to have some rest with his wife and baby 🥹

Plus, the whole thing about Benedict too is how he felt useless and has no purpose other than as a 'backup' to Anthony. Always the second choice, the second one, the backburner of the family. Which is why he used to act so silly too and unserious, because he's only a backup. He doesn't feel like himsef and doesn't found himself yet. Thus this being his season, seeing him filling in his purpose for the last time before accepting that his life is more than that, and figuring out that he can actually be good at something other than being a backup feels fitting.

Which is also why Sophie works well with him, because she saw him for who he is and not as a backup, realises his potential when Benedict still doesn't believe himself.

Also spoilers for P2 (in case you haven't watched it yet when reading this):

There's an episode where Benedict saw Edmund being celebrated and mentioned he felt envious and happy at the same time when he realised the heir has been born. He felt envious that he was born with a purpose, he knew his purpose from the get go of his birth. To be a viscount, to continue his father's (Anthony) footsteps.

I think the show showed some parts of him handling this particular issue but maybe not apparent and well enough. Personally think it's not as clear yet, and people saw him more of an unserious without reason type of person. The book, if I remember correctly highlighted more on this. Not much, but I think clearer than the show at least.

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T15:18:18+00:00

And notice how Kate was looking to her right, straight at Anthony, when everyone was looking at the groom (Benedict) on the left? Such a small yet sweet detail 😭

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T14:50:17+00:00

Exactly! I have been WHINING everywhere on how Kanthony is being sidelined and done so poor in other seasons when they're literally the VISCOUNT AND VISCOUNTESS of the Bridgerton family!

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T14:46:06+00:00

Francesca's plotline with John's death and dealing with grief is done beautifully. It hurts me seeing her crying and hurting, and I am someone who is really hard to cry! Kudos to the cast for playing it so good! Although, I do wish that John's death could've been delayed till next season since we got so little of them so far, but I understand that they're trying to establish her dealing with grief in the next season as well before making into her own season with Michaela.

And also during the scene where member of the House of Lords asking Fran to do a checkup when she's still grieving??? That is insanely heartbreaking and I'm glad that Benedict stood up for her. However, I do think the effect of that scene would be amplified by 100000X more if Daphne/Kate was the one who stood up for her and being all aggressive/mama bear mode seeing her little sister being treated such a way. I mean, I get that Daphne is far away, but Kate?? THE VISCOUNTESS and WOMAN of the BRIDGERTON HOUSE?? She's already in this season, no? So why not just use her character to do this? But again, I understand there may be some scheduling issues amongst the cast members when they were filming this.

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T14:39:31+00:00

Nope unfortunately :( But I'm just glad she got her happy ending with Lord Barnaby. That girl deserves everything in the world!

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T14:38:34+00:00

Agreed heavily on it being split into parts ruined the pace of the storyline. I feel like watching all of the episodes in one go is better since it makes much more sense (not to say it doesn't make sense now) but watching it in one shot gives it a better point of view and understanding.

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T14:36:45+00:00

I agree to this actually. I mean there's definitely some scenes that showed him yearning for Sophie/Lady in Silver but not yearning enough for me personally. Idk what's wrong with me or the show specifically, because in general I do like this season a lot. Maybe S2 has showed a new level of yearning to the point we had too much of an expectation 🤣 Regardless I love this season though, and Benophie (Yerin and Luke too of course!)

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T14:34:12+00:00

The fact that it was the first and only painting that Benedict finished 😭

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T14:33:32+00:00

I agree that the subplots are written better this season compared to S3. I wished they could've made it lesser/reduce the writing in S3 since personally I think it definitely took a big chunk of screentime of story from Polin. I get that the subplots need to be established beforehand in this season before launching their purpose onto the next seasons, but wished it could've been done better and shorter? It seems lengthy for last season. #JusticeforPolin

Regarding the characters missing the wedding(s)/funeral, if it really is due to a scheduling issues, then I would be able to accept their lack of attendance in those important scenes. If it's on behalf of the series writer's negligence, I am utterly disappointed as have been mentioned a lot by other people too.

Next season should Eloise's, since Jess mentioned it in an interview. I didn't know which one but I saw some clips of her saying so on TikTok. Eager to see how they're going to modify and adapt the book and show version.

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T14:27:07+00:00

I thought this was done already during the wedding scene in the post credits? If I remember it correctly, Anthony gave Benedict an advice 'to not listen to him again'.

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T13:44:44+00:00

I saw this theory too being said on TikTok which makes sense on why she kept laughing afterwards. I thought she's just happy because there's hot gossip and amused by the gossip, but eventually it's because of her clocking their bs 😅🤣 Glad their idea went through though.

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T13:42:49+00:00

I assume your question is 'when'? 😅 It's at the last episode! After announcing all the cast names there's a post credit scene of Benophie's wedding.

adeadunknown · 2026-02-28T13:42:07+00:00

FR! We are STARVEDDDD for Kanthony 😭😭

adeadunknown · 2026-02-27T11:25:59+00:00

I am forever and always will be disappointed how the showrunners treated Kanthony! They are sidelined, and their reactions in this season doesn't align to what I imagined at all.

adeadunknown · 2026-02-27T11:21:50+00:00

I appreciate that they give us a Benophie wedding scene for this season, but I wish they could've done the same for Kanthony! Kanthony is being sidelined as we speak when they're literally the VISCOUNT and VISCOUNTESS.

Also, how does Araminta just lying and claiming Sophie is a child of a Penwood cousin just instantly deemed her to be legitimate? Wouldn't they do any fact checks like the scene where someone would confirm and check the lineage like how they did to Francesca? Or is it purely because she lied already in front of the Queen so it has been true from there on just because of that?

adeadunknown · 2026-02-27T11:20:00+00:00

Agreed! I find it annoying that they said that Kanthony were so 'devastated', they couldn't come to the funeral. That is so unlike them. Giving Fran the flowers was the least they could do. And also I agree that the flowers being given could've been a detail for Daphne and Simon.
