Getting caught up, just watched Maggie give a 'talk' to Jubal, than her mentor, and then Isobel.....I'm sorry, but I'm over it.

I don't feel like the buck stops at Ron.

Im just glad he is back. I'm interested in learning how he knew the forensic anthropologist.

I really liked Dr. Hudson. I hope we see more of him.

It had to be bad enough that the Queen believed Eloise couldn't be LW. And it really is only a temporary scandal. The Bridgertons are wealthy, well liked, and titled....not to mention Eloise's sister is a Duchess.....the scandal of her spending time 'covorting with political radicals' won't stick. Clearly they were already at parties and talking with others by end of the next episode and by time s3 starts no one will care anymore. However, if Pen has written the whole rule of Eloise spending time alone in Bloomsbury with the printers apprentice.....well, Lady Mary's parents will still outcast from society 20 years after she married 'below her station.' Not to mention, Eloise would've been forced to marry Theo because she was with him without a chaperone.

https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/phoebe-dynevor-exits-bridgerton-season-3-netflix-1235506536/ Makes me think that its quite possible that we won't get Kate after s3. It could like their signed on through their story arc, plus one season and thats it

I think we will see a lot of them this season, but probably not next.

I think Pen is a good person, and I like her too....I think the problem comes from that I think initially she started LW as a harmless way to vent her frustrations and feel like she had a voice....until the issue with the guy that was threatening Daphne (don't remember his name) she didn't really report anything other then what people were wearing and the impressions people gave to the ton. She was really only reporting what others were already saying in a more entertaining way, and she didn't leave herself out of it.....Although we don't see it, I feel like Eloise would've told her that this guy was threatening her family, and Pen saw an opportunity to expose him for the trash he was and save her friends family. After that it kind of shifted and got out of control.....BUT at the end of the day Pen/LW is not responsible for other peoples actions, she is only responsible for exposing them. And people shouldn't blame her for what happened to them when their actions were exposed. Marina and Eloise are still responsible for what they were doing. I also think that Pen feels like she has little control over her life and that she lacks a voice in her real life and it occasionally causes her to lash out. With Marina, she didn't expose her until she felt backed into a corner and Marina was cruel to her. With writing about Eloise, she hadn't considered writing something bad about Eloise until Delacriox suggested it, even then she wasn't going to do it until Eloise said she was going to pretend to LW which was only a temporary solution (plus I think Penelope was afraid of losing control of the one thing she felt was hers), and she wasn't cruel to Eloise when Eloise was yelling at her....until Eloise called her a coward and an insipid wallflower (something Eloise knew would hurt her)...then she was cruel. Being cruel is never Penelope's first instinct. But she does lack some emotional control and is prone too lashing out. We all gossip, even we say we don't gossip...we still gossip and talk about other people when we're with friends. Most people ignored Pen or bullied her and the only reason Penelope knew 90% of what she reported is because people were already talking about it, in front of her. And everyone had no problem devouring these scandal sheets because they all love gossip. Even the Bridgertons.

Yep..thanks...I hadn't read Eloise's book yet and was confused... but I still think Phillip and Eloise will end up together, and my other points stand.

Jubal was a drunk who was sleeping with his younger partner.....and screwed up a case because of it. When Isabel was younger, she was sleeping with her older partner who was a drunk and screwed up a case.....

I don't dislike Nancy, but the girl is in her early-mid twenties and had clearly made some dumb mistakes....but somehow we're supposed to believe she is like this super wise love specialist who is more worldly and experienced than the midwives that were doing this since before she was even a teenager.....cause she seems to have all the answers about fixing people relationships and its just....I sit here watching going 'Oh....of course Nancy will get involved with Trixie's relationship and get him to step out of his comfort zone to show his fun side to everyone like Trixie wanted...' ...If it weren't for Nancy, this poor man in a relationship wouldn't have a clue....yet she seems to so clueless that she's not being a good roommate. Im glad there was no SMJ coming in to save the day/drama plot. I love Judy Parfitt, but I wish they sent SMJ to the motherhouse at this point. I am glad we saw the Mullucks back, I like their family. I hope Helen George doesn't leave the show after Trixie gets married. At this point, I feel like Trixie, Sister Julienne, and the Turners are the backbone of the show. Lightbulb moment....that makes sense.....

I liked the show. But I think it would've been more successful, and people would've liked it better, if they didn't use the Addams Family name but instead called it Nevermore and called the family by a different name....or have it be Wednesday's kid instead of Wednesday.....and there is the obvious problem that Netflix has control over it, which tells a lot people its probably going to go down the drain real fast, and then get canceled after the 3rd or 4th season.

Someone I don't remember who, called Nevermore Illvermorny and honestly...It feels like a HP and Sabrina had a baby.

How is it Xavier is considered the wet blanket and Tyler was so great with Wednesday and didn't expect anything? I'm asking because I'm seeing this a lot on a lot of discussion threads... Xavier is open an honest about his thoughts and feelings yeah....I mean the audacity of a guy being open and honest....but he also calls Wednesday on her crap all the time... He saves her...and she makes a remark about him trying to be the big strong man saving the weak woman who hopes the woman will be gratefully indebted to him...and he goes 'OMG! Your soooo right...I couldn't possibly have done it just because it was the right thing to do...of course not. I also couldn't have done it because you saved my life once...no...It must be because I thought you were a weak female...' ..... or when Wednesday called him an 'Elitist snob' and he turned it back on her with 'Well...since our families are both wealthy and run in the same circles....If I'm an elitist snob, what does that make you?' Meanwhile, Tyler is over here 'I'm getting mixed signals from you. Do you like me? Want to date me? No...let me ask again in another episode. Let me take you on this super romantic date? You took me to this old run down house, where I nearly died(not really) but I'm the only one that lets that roll off my back and still wants to kiss you when your friends rightfully called you on your crap and then bailed. (I mean of course we know why at the end....but....still.)

And if people think things like this don't happen.....earlier this year Russia refused to allow the sale of the Wedding Stories game pack for Sims 4, for as long as EA featured a same sex couple on the front....it was a big thing, EA wasn't going to change it, but agreed to at the last minute to comply with Russia's demand. Anime is changed all the time to make it 'more palatable' to whatever Country their trying to market to.....At the end of the day, a company will always follow whatever direction will make them the most money.
