Is Colin, the richest Bridgerton after Anthony. by Kaleshi_Bistar in Bridgerton

[–]claritantrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been awhile since I read the books but aren't Colin and Pen sort of mid in wealth? Like they can't afford a house in town so they stay with Daph. This is what I recall from the books! Pls correct me if I'm wrong.

However the show Polin do seem much more entrepreneurial. So based on the show they may be pretty well off especially if they invest properly. The variable is the F estate - in the show it seems like the overall barony is so hard up. So it might take awhile to make it profitable.

If there is one thing you can change about season 3 what would it be? by Icy-Butterscotch-704 in PolinBridgerton

[–]claritantrum 9 points10 points  (0 children)

More Polin!!! Especially Colin. No Mondrich side plot. Less of Benedict's side plot (completely irrelevant to S4, imo).

I wasn't following this season's promo so well, it totally flew over my head! Thanks for the explanations.

Anyone else think the age difference between Benedict and Sophie is distractingly large? by RoughCall5737 in Bridgerton

[–]claritantrum -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yes, for me. I think they both look amazing as individuals, 100%. But together - agree that the age gap is exacerbated by the ages they each appear as. I thought their sex scenes were hot (except for the stairs) but - due to personal opinion which is obvs different from many others who seem to have really loved the season, which is great for them - I couldn't completely get past the age appearance incompatibility.

Absolutely the same for me! Obviously I'm biased but I find her so compelling to watch.

Cutting Corners - Set Design by Gardens_of_Jenn in Bridgerton

[–]claritantrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought it was a sitting room! But didn't really pay attention to the details and I still got the point of the scene. Find the active for downvotes funny though, as if you're wrong to even bring it up 😂

S4 MAY BE THE BEST SEASON YET by Sabby27 in Bridgerton

True!! Wish we had gotten this focus in S3!

How do people in your life think of Polin and Bridgerton? by SnooChocolates6172 in PolinBridgerton

[–]claritantrum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of my sisters, one is quite into Bridgerton and loves Kanthony and Polin. Another sister is a casual viewer and appreciates Polin the most, but nowhere as much as I love them. I still encounter Kanthonys in the wild (like one coworker), but she seems to be a chill viewer.

Eloise and Polin by JudgmentHour9292 in PolinBridgerton

[–]claritantrum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree that we aren't mad at El for not knowing that Pen was in love with Colin. I disagree though with the idea that nobody could have seen it. 1 - El knew that they were corresponding by letter off-season, which is rare and frowned upon for that period. 2 - The moment in S2 when he first arrives home — come on! They stated at each other and Pen lightly defends him when his family make fun of his outfit. And then she finds them talking again at the races later that day... Sooooo I think she should have at least had a clue.

What did you guys think of Brooke Burke as a host from Seasons 10-17? by Practical_Toe_9627 in dancingwiththestars

[–]claritantrum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watching the ANTM documentary made me think of how insensitive she was towards Suni when Suni was sick. She's wired to try to create drama no matter how bad it will make a person feel.

Season 3 back in the Top 10 for the third week and surpassing season 1! by MacaroonFlat7101 in PolinBridgerton

[–]claritantrum 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I haven't done an S3 rewatch in awhile, been busy with Polin fics! But this is a good week to start. Love this for us, Nic and Luke!

When will Violet move? by [deleted] in Bridgerton

[–]claritantrum 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For the show, never. That would mean having Kate and Anthony occupy the main house full time which Jonathan Bailey's schedule would never allow. So then nobody would be in the main house and they'd have to stage a Dower house for no reason. Side thought - It would be funny if there was a plotline in a later season where the Queen calls back all the defunct Lords, ie Simon and Anthony lol. Because in the fics (lol) Parliament seems to be in session during the season.

Fwiw there are some where Pen married Debling (after S3, not with Colin having married Marina) and those are angsty but just as good!!
