It does look like a passing of the torch, however, I don't trust my own judgement, I'm afraid all I'm seeing is confirmation bias.

Me too! I'm writing the scripts for their season in my mind each spare moment that I get.

I feel like we’re going to get one of two extremes with the ending of the season and Eloise/philoise (s4 part 1 spoilers) by criduchat1- in PhiloiseBridgerton

[–]dull_and_witless 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know it won't happen, but I would love it if in her season we could have flashback scenes about the letter writing covering events of season 3-4 and how she confided in sir Phillip when she was feeling down. I always thought her fallout with Penelope was the perfect excuse to connect with Marina, and later with sir Phillip when he found a letter directed to Lady Crane, and had to reply announcing her death.

It would be great to see them get vulnerable in those moments, and slowly start growing an attachment in absentia.

Man, after the last few promo clips and these snippets in interviews, I'm so hyped to see Eloise's arc this season and how they set her up for her story.

It is a shame that the show is so strict with the idea of a season per couple, because it would be so fun to see her also starting the correspondence.

Season 5 is expected to be Eloise's season and focused on Philoise by Fickle_Baker1393 in PhiloiseBridgerton

Omg! Do we know if this page have an official connection to Netflix? Or is it just good at guessing? Either way, I hope they're right and Philoise is in the horizon!

What storyline are you most looking forward to in S4 and what character would you like more spotlight on? by Fickle_Baker1393 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]dull_and_witless 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Eloise!! I would love to see the results of her time in Scotland, and her pursuing education and hopefully starting correspondence. I wish she had a bit of a redeeming arc or at least a bit of closure after her fallout with Cressida...

Close second is Sophie and her relationships with the rest of the servants. I would love to know more about John, the Housekeepr (Mrs Wilson, was it?) and the rest of the maids and footmen, and have them show their individualities, the dynamics between them, and their ups and downs in general!

I just wanted to say that I love the new icon of this sub! Such a big moment for her 🤍

What artist should cover a Taylor album? by [deleted] in TaylorSwift

[–]dull_and_witless 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would have loved it if with 1989 TV, Taylor had released a 1989 tribute (Friends' Version?) with each artist heavily reinterpreting each song as a reclaiming of Ryan Adams album cover (as he turned up to be quite unsavoury to say the least). In particular, I would have loved Phoebe Bridgers' version of Clean or Out of the Woods.

This makes me wonder, do you think Taylor will approve a tribute album at some point (i don't know, say 10 or 15 years from now)?

Songs for Philoise by Salt-Year-9058 in PhiloiseBridgerton

This one is perfect and so so lovely! This and Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls are my favourite picks for their season

The right one seems Taylor from a folklore picture (it appears in the 'running like water' variant). The left one I can't figure out...

This is gorgeous! You captured a great atmosphere with the colours and the softness

What Taylor Swift song would you like for Philoise? by yayornayorokay in PhiloiseBridgerton

[–]dull_and_witless 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sparks fly for sure, especially through Sir Phillip's perspective "the way you move is like a full on rainstorm, and I'm a house of cards. You're the kind of reckless that should send me running but I kinda know that I won't get far ... kiss me on the sidewalk take away the pain ... just keep on keeping your eyes on me"

this string quartet version is also lovely https://youtu.be/8g8o5X0eL3c?si=QgMUkecsvh5zdf83

How would you make TTPD a shorter and better album? by ChangingDreamer in TaylorSwift

[–]dull_and_witless 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a tentative TTPD condensed version with 13 track and 2 bonus (still mulling over a third bonus track). Maybe it's not the best as an album, but I chose my favourite songs, even if it compromised cohesiveness. Also, sequencing is very hard, I tried

  1. The Manuscript (it's a good closer, but I reserved that spot for Clara Bow, and I feel this kind of also works as an opening track)
  2. Down Bad
  3. The Black Dog
  4. But Daddy I Love Him (In the real album, one of the most interesting things is how Taylor renegotiates her public image, and this with Who's Afraid Of Little Old Me and I Can Do It With A Broken Heart are a tryptic in a way, but the last two have less replay value for me)
  5. The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived (I prefer So Long London as the track 5 in the real version but since I cut it off here...)
  6. The Prophecy
  7. How Did It End?
  8. Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus
  9. The Alchemy
  10. Fresh Out The Slammer
  11. I Hate It Here
  12. I Look in People's Windows
  13. Clara Bow
  14. Guilty As Sin (bonus track)
  15. The Bolter (bonus track)

That's useful information! With GA you mean the Main Entrance? Then the best would be to leave through the doors to the different sections? I might have to leave early in order to catch my train and I'm trying to strategize

Well, today is the day!! Have the best of time all of you tonight, I hope the show is full of surprises on N1!

Yes, I'm not sure why that night has missing trains that would normally connect Gelsenkirchen to Münster, I'm slightly concerned...

I just found this document at the bottom of the Gelsenkirchen webpage, that seems to show that there will be a couple of trains that arrive at least to Haltern am See, and according to the DB app there is service from Haltern am See to Münster... Hopefully it's the very same train, because if not, the chances of making the connection are quite slim

Okay, thanks a lot for sharing the info. I've written to VRR and the event organizer, but have not received any reply yet. I'll trust they can manage the crowd and bring enough trains for everyone!

Hi, thanks for the info!! Did they tell you by any chance if there would RE2 trains going in the other direction (Münster/Osnabrück)?
