  1. Rege-Jean Page. He left Bridgerton to do movies. I am not that familiar with Theo James. My point basically is that all these guys want to branch out while they are "it". How long does it take to film a season of Miss Scarlett? Probably longer than I would guess. My guess would be 6 to 8 months?
  2. It seems to me these British leading men types who the ladies swoon over leave quite commonly for "greener pastures". Remember the Bridgerton hottie from season 1 or the leading man from season 1 of Sanditon? The latter is now having his own series on Netflix called "The Gentlemen". Stuart Martin actually stuck around longer than both these actors.
  3. I am enjoying myself and to me this revival is more sophisticated than the old mini-series. I know this was a big deal back in the day but quite frankly it was dated when I watched it as a child. And I would probably find it more dated now. I kind of regret I remember certain plot details. I wish I didn't. Anyways it's something new to watch. Something not Marvel, or DC. Something that scratches the itch while I am waiting for HOTD to come back, ha.
  4. Escpecially when he is boiling young foreign sailors to death. He is an interesting character but he should die eventually.
  5. Portugal was a world power then so it wouldn't be so odd that an educated navigator would speak their language. So, the difference between a pirate and a privateer is that the privateer is officially sanctioned by their government? How convenient.
  6. Can't they recast the duke like they do in soaps? Don't get hung up on actors in roles. And I say this as someone who has done it myself. Nash is a good substitute for me personally because I like both the looks of the actor and his vibe with the leading lady. https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/specialfeatures/masterpiece-announces-miss-scarlet-season-5-and-casting-news/#:~:text=Miss Scarlet will welcome back,Tim Chipping as Detective Phelps. So who is the new romance going to be with? ETA to me it seems obvious that the departure is the actors wishes, that it wasn't planned, and that they are now trying to make lemonade out of the lemons the actor handed them.
  7. https://deadline.com/2024/02/miss-scarlet-and-the-duke-will-continue-without-duke-masterpiece-1235841918/ I will probably keep watching. I hope they will bring Nash back. I did like him.
  8. Oh yes, I am in. I was grateful not having to watch the baby die. They are not shying away from the brutality of the story but they are also not coarse and rubbing your face in it. All the characters, even Ishido are quite multi-level and not one note villains.
  9. Promising start. I was a child when the old mini-series was airing and I remember loving it and learning some Japanese watching it. Looking back on it it seems quite soap opera like. I also read the novel later on which was quite brutal in parts. This new version is more sophisticated and it can obviously be more through the Japanese gaze now.
  10. Smiles. Well, he did put her before Jesus.
  11. In case you didn't see it, two more seasons, guys, with Christmas specials!
  12. Awesome! to have it officially renewed! And great to get Callum back. For two seasons!
  13. Yikes! I have no memory of that moment. Even though, personally I have failed every single time I have fostered a cat. Oscar would have been another foster fail for me.
  14. That rubbed me the wrong way too. If you feel the need to give your pet away maybe at least try to make sure these strangers are not animal abusers? Well, it's better than what happens to unwanted cats in the US a lot, getting thrown into a dumpster alive like trash. But this scene did make James and Helen come across as quite fickle - "oh hey, we have a new baby now, don't need the cat anymore."
  15. Hmm. I googled and I can't actually find an official season 5 renewal by Channel 5?
