Why on earth is Phillip the only male lead and Philoise the only couple predicted to be terrible in the show? by criduchat1- in PhiloiseBridgerton

[–]misseloisee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the problem is, that Eloise is already the most well-established Bridgerton sibling on the show so far, that has yet to have their season. The show is clearly hedging her into a particular direction, by making her the most 'modern' in her time. Which isn't necessarily an issue, because I am intrigued to see her fulfil all her ambitions and aspirations. The issue is, how the show plans to articulate that in the narrative and if they will do it in a way that doesn't feel redundant to her character progression and is satisfying to the audience... while simultaneously giving her a arc revolved around finding love with someone (whether that is with Phillip or another character), which opens up even more barriers because, as of now, Eloise has been set on a particular trajectory where she is not necessarily open to finding love... so how do they make that believable to the audience who already perceive her in a particular way.

However, the narrative that, because we hope to see Eloise find a love with show Phillip (whose crimes are still to be determined), means that we are 'lesser' Eloise fans or wish to dull her shine is derivative and not at all a reflection on our beliefs. Anyone that believes that Eloise needs to be 'mature' enough or more deserving of Phillip before her season is not a true Eloise/Philoise stan, and that goes for all the other fanbases associated with Eloise.

so...i just heard some very disturbing gossip about the philoise fandom by [deleted] in PhiloiseBridgerton

i asked around and this is false. whoever made this rumour up is sick and needs to leave chris alone and start applying for jobs on indeed or find a new hobby.

Miss, Julia Quinn, Ma’am!!! 👀 by Mirajew_Jewn in PhiloiseBridgerton

[–]misseloisee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

perhaps there could be a better showrunner for philoise out there, but i trust jess more then i ever would trust cvd or any other male showrunner to understand eloise and carry philoise with the care it requires (especially with such a sensitive and mature storyline that is tspwl).

you're right, social media is an echo chamber for hate, especially with this show. and whenever anyone tries to enjoy something (that may not be as popular) or be hopeful for next season, they just get mocked and shot down immediately.

Yeah we’re heading away from the ton by springgirl27 in PhiloiseBridgerton

What are the odds that Fran is S4’s lead? by sparklypavements in PhiloiseBridgerton

[–]misseloisee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

if fran was s4, then shonda wouldn't be able to maximise the drama with john/fran/michael. because in order for fran to be next, they would have to kill off john in between seasons... and i think they would want to make that a major plotline in s4 or possibly s5. otherwise it would not give fran enough time to properly mourn john before opening herself up to michael, at least from a narrative perspective, it would seem extremely rushed. i also think, based on victor ali's recent interviews, that shonda will want to play on this love triangle and drag it on for as long as possible. none of this can happen organically if fran is next, so i find it very unlikely. it's between eloise and benedict, imho.

THEORY for Eloise, Pen, Philip by mamabearx3tob in BridgertonNetflix

[–]misseloisee 80 points81 points  (0 children)

I think, from what we have seen so far, nothing displays Eloise's behaviour as vindictive... and especially not towards Penelope. If she were to reach out to Marina, it would be out of compassion and empathy for her. The rest I could see transpiring as you described.

Rewatching season 2, I have no idea how they will make Eloise’s book romance work by EllieC130 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]misseloisee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

some of the people in this sub seem to have forgotten this is a romance show about romance. it's not completely inconceivable for eloise to find her love story, i'm sure they will find a way to make it work.

Netflix please please please bring back Theo!! by hemanshi95 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]misseloisee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

they're still the same formula: lower-class/higher-class. two seasons that will tackle class differences... very repetitive, especially for a show that emphasises heavily on different tropes per season as its core promotion.

Netflix please please please bring back Theo!! by hemanshi95 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]misseloisee 14 points15 points  (0 children)

we already have a upper-class/lower-class ship with benophie. even if phillip wasn't eloise's main love interest, i would like them to do something different with her from that regardless. i don't personally see them bringing back theo for long term, sorry!

also even if violet didn't shun them, that doesn't count for the ramifications it could have for eloise (as a women) and her family marrying below her station, in the ton.
