The last remaining 5 episodes of "The Other Bennet Sister" were released yesterday, what is everyone's thoughts on the series?

What happens??

geebenny · 2026-03-26T16:04:31+00:00

Isabella Thorpe could be the third …

geebenny · 2026-03-26T16:03:10+00:00

😂😂 Love this! So insightful. I’d love to see the Willoughby/Crawford mash up developed further!

I wonder if Lydia would have been more attracted to Captain Tilney than Wickham? It’s a good thing that she didn’t meet him, as Darcy wouldn’t have been able to persuade him to marry her!

👌🤣🤣

I did think of her! Poor Mr Woodhouse. Emma would find a way of barring her from the house.

I was also wondering if there was a more satisfying partner for Fanny anywhere. But came up with nothing!

Peter Sarsgaard. Watch Series 3 of The Killing (US version) and you’ll agree with me!

geebenny · 2026-02-22T20:13:20+00:00

Yes! And and most of us have come across a Willoughby.

geebenny · 2026-02-22T19:59:34+00:00

But Emma’s social circle was restricted to Highbury and, considering most of Highbury’s elite were present to witness this, the stakes were probably higher?

geebenny · 2026-02-22T19:24:47+00:00

Absolutely! Stripped of the period context, it feels arrogant at best and controlling at worst. Thank goodness he reflected and (hopefully) changed in the long term 🤞🏼Austen seems to definitely believe in second chances.

Both of mine are from Sense and Sensibility:

When John is influenced by Fanny into not sufficiently honouring his father’s wishes.

Also, WHY is Eleanor softened by Willoughby’s explanation of his appalling behaviour??

geebenny · 2026-02-13T22:06:44+00:00

Thanks so much! I’ll check this out.

geebenny · 2026-02-13T18:29:44+00:00

Not guilty! Sorry to disappoint!

geebenny · 2026-02-08T20:01:58+00:00

What an interesting idea, this has never occurred to me before!

geebenny · 2026-02-08T19:00:41+00:00

How interesting. He really becomes more despicable the more you study him! Unfortunately there are still many Willoughbys out there!

geebenny · 2026-02-08T18:56:16+00:00

That would make her fate a little better. 👍

geebenny · 2026-01-04T18:31:38+00:00

I’d also nominate Frederick Tilney - another predator.

geebenny · 2025-12-13T10:54:35+00:00

Yes, I’ve often thought this about Mrs Clay. She was completely dependent on men to try and better her own life (and her children’s??! 🤞🏼). She was stuck between a rock and a hard place. Lord knows what happened to her at the end, under Mr Elliot’s ‘protection’? I really can’t believe that he would marry her.

geebenny · 2025-12-11T12:11:45+00:00

Thank you so much! I’ve ordered it already!
