The way the scene is cut, a lot of people miss the most important part of Colin’s journal, he’s actually talking about how lonely he feels. He’s gotten physically close to women on his travels but, right as he’s walking into the room, Penelope reads that he still feels so distant from the women as well. He’s missing the emotional intimacy, and it shows that at his heart, he’s not a rake. He longs for emotional connection, he can’t do casual sex the way his brothers can. Also, new to the channel and loved your reaction!

I processed this a bit later and you are absolutely right. As I was editing I recognized the part of feeling “distance”. His character felt the need to conform and follow in the steps of all the other men around him. Eloise, Violet and Pen noticed it too. It wasn’t who he was but who he felt he needed to become to fit in. Thank you for stopping by and for supporting the channel.

He’s always had a place in his heart for Pen all that was missing was the romantic physical attraction. It now as you said clicked for him and the switch happened, the relationship grew.

People get so mad that he isn’t groveling, but he honestly didn’t know that she liked him and even if he did, he didn’t owe it to her to like her back. He apologized for being an ass at the end of S2, which she accepted. One thing they can never say for Colin is that he doesn’t care about her. She is probably the closest thing he had to a friend.

So glad you caught that Pen was inadvertently "wooing" Colin. Romancing Mr. Bridgerton, indeed! And also agreed, that what Lady Featherington said to Pen about a life unmarried is what sealed the deal in her mind, more than even the disaster at the ball - that she should resign herself to spinsterhood. Some folks were mad she "begged Colin" to kiss her. But I didn't see it as begging. At your lowest point can also be your most courageous. So, without any hope, she REQUESTED that Colin, someone she trusted, to kiss her and he complied. She took ownership of her first kiss. And Colin was floored because he'd never kissed anyone he cared about before. There was that connection he'd been seeking all along. One of the best first kisses every portrayed on the screen.
@JoiLouiseReacts2 ай бұрын
I could not agree more! I felt Pen was taking control in asking! Women often times are told they should not be the ones to ask for ANYTHING, but I disagree. Outside of romance, men ask each other for things all the time. Why not ask someone you trust? Someone you love? And it worked in her favor, it lit a fuse in Colin!

im actually so scared for the Lady Whistlwdown reveal, because I'm not ready for Pen to be demonized. don't get me wrong, I know Penelope has done some really messed up things as Lady Whistledown, but its a reaction to all the shit she's been through. her family sucks, none of them root for her and only made her social anxiety and lack of confidence that much worse. especially her mom. she does nothing but talk down to Pen, this is shown in the "Pep talk" Portia tried to give her. and the Ton of course treats her like shit. so yeah Penelope isn't innocent, but she isn't a super villain. In my opinion, she's a product of the mistreatment she faced from everyone
@JoiLouiseReacts3 ай бұрын
Mmmmm…poor Pen. The way Portia speaks to her is disgusting. Just horrible. It truly hearts my heart to witness because I too have had family speak these kinds of words to me. Whistledown is how she communicates her true self. Unapologetically and freely. I do agree that Eloise is NOT perfect. I honestly had a hard time following her character this season. She seemed lost and much like Colin, playing a part unlike herself. Eloise does however not see the pain Pen goes through with her family. She only noticed Cressida’s because her father says “That Bridgerton Girl”, she only cares about what affects her and it’s a true sigh of immaturity. I am hoping to see her character grow up a bit before the end of the season. 🥰 Thank you for commenting and watching my video. So grateful for you.

I don't feel that Colin is a rake. A flirt, for sure, but not so much a rake. I think Benedict would be closer to a rake than Colin, and even then I feel like that sort of pushes it since both men are not targeting ladies to ruin and keeping their activities limited to sex workers for the most part. Yes, A drawing room is a living room. The Withdrawing room. As it was the room people would withdraw to from the dining room to digest their meal and entertain with music, books, cards ect.. In the Bridgerton's case, their Drawing room is connected to the Morning room. Which is basically a living room that has great large windows to let in the morning sunlight. This room was usually reserved for the ladies of the house to sit in the mornings to plan their day with the family and staff, write letters, etc.

I love them, youre hilarious!!! I love the blackness girl! We outchea enjoying bridgerton together 😊. And your inserted gifs and little clips! So entertaining I think the hand touched between Pen and Colin are important because the women generally wear gloves, so its them reallt ahowing physical affection. I love everything about Pen this season. Confident, open to growth, fierce, gorgeous, everything! I also love Colin realising that that feeling he has never been able to place is loveee for Pen. He says she can flutter her lashes and men will swoon because HE is swooning. His words towards her so beautiful and touching! He's a writer for sure! He needs to realise that he only needs to be himself to be loved. That scene the women was 🫣😮. He gon learn. It's when you said "she had that man GAGGED", i burst out laughing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I ONLY wish their lessons went on longer, but uncle was already in love. ❤ Also I think Francesca's character is supposed have some elements of autism; she is only interested in 'pianoforte', and does not wish to or want to really adhere to the social niceties, so wants to be married as quickly as possible. She also finds family time where several things are occurring at once overwhelming, and find someone who brings her peace ☺️. I wanna slap Eloise this season. And hug Portia, she is hilarious!

Really enjoyed this reaction. This season is deeply personal to me because I am Pen. From the awful way society treated me, to being unwanted and invisible in my family, to having no one in my corner but a male best friend I was deeply in love with, down even to becoming a writer so I could escape ever so briefly all my negative self-talk. I am also slightly taller than Pen’s height and was gifted with an ample chest, which is literally the focus of the only attention I ever got from guys. Attention which was always mocking or derogatory. But unlike Penelope, I had been very sick all my life with a short life-expectancy of my teens, which I miraculously continue to outlive. But it has made me undesirable to be around. Girls torn me down because I looked awful, guys did terribly mean spirited things to me all the time too. No one ever dated me. Or invited me to hang out. I spent my life with one friend. And after a nearly 20 yr friendship with my male best friend, I was at my lowest point in my life, heavily considering you-know-what, just done with society, my family, all of it. And after some devastating health news, I was at rock bottom. When I say I lived this first kiss conversation, I mean it down to my core. I put myself through this moment when I had no hope left. When I wanted just one positive thing… even if I had to plead for it. My conversation with my best friend was exactly the Colin and Pen exchange except I was almost crying and he rejected me. I did not get a kiss. I got told that he wasn’t strong enough to love me knowing he would lose me so he was going to keep his distance and that way he’d only have to mourn me as a friend. So believe me when I say I bawled when Colin actually kissed Pen. I was so happy for her. And so depressed remembering what happened to me. This season may very well break me. Especially if the upcoming intimate scenes in part 2 between Colin and Pen are as genuine and raw as the actors have claimed them to be.

@@JoiLouiseReacts I turned 38 in December. And while I do see things from a more evolved perspective now, I cannot say everything happened as it did for the better. Because of my best friend’s rejection, I ended up in a toxic relationship for 5 yrs with a man who turned out to be a genuine psychopath. He was the only other man who ever showed me any positive attention and I was so broken for so long I fell into his trap and started drowning way before I realized I couldn’t breathe anymore. I stayed because he was the only source of positive response to me, even if that positive feedback became less and less. And eventually it completely disappeared and he became dangerous. It’s a miracle I valued myself enough at the time to leave him. And I’m so proud of that decision. But that’s the last relationship I ever had. I’ve been utterly alone and deeply lonely for 33 out of my 38 years. I’ve tried many times to write my story. But I always end up scrapping what I’ve written. It’s almost as if I don’t want to acknowledge the truth. Maybe I’m just not strong enough yet… I’ve also tried many times to find my tribe as it were. And every time I feel like I’m comfortable and could thrive in a community I get the floor ripped out from underneath me. Which adds to the ingrained belief that no one wants to be around me. Everyone just walks away.

Colin is a sensitive man and his love for Penelope is all consuming. The friendship, the passion, the intimacy, it will blow our minds in part 2. I think he will be hurt by the Whistledown reveal but he will quickly understand why Pen did it and he will be proud of her wit. He's a writer too in his own way and he sees how clever her writing is. Their marriage will be so wholesome.

For that kiss scene Penelope was basically begging Colin to kiss her she felt invisible for so long but she felt seen by him as he came to genuinely check on her I feel that she wanted it to be with the boy she had fell in love with for many years and in that moment I believe she really thought maybe I won’t find someone after trying and failing or having something else ruin her moments she felt despair but the kiss renewed her hope & boosted her confidence to try again . Now Colin I do believe he always felt something for Penelope since childhood but he always suppress it to worried about what others would say & think as soon as she asked him you could see he wanted to kiss her as well but he was holding back that’s why it took him almost losing her to truly let go and listen to his heart

In a way, it's a role reversal. We are watching the emotional journey of colin. Usually its the girl in that position. Its pen seducing colin not colin seducing pen. Pen is the more emotionally experienced one while colin is demi-s*xual. The second he kissed the girl he already has an emotional bond with the world opened up for the guy. Yeah in that society the girls aren't taught about s^x and learn it from their husbands. But in a way, emotionally speaking colin is basically penelope's sister. Colin feels a lot in a society that tells men to not feel. He is trying his hardest not to. But that kiss right there was a light bold moment for colin.

@JoiLouiseReacts The funny thing is that Creceda also compared pen and colin to eros and psyche. Yeah but again its flipped. Psyche the beautiful lonely princess everyone adores but no one actually knows. And Eros the g'd of love meddling in everyone's lovelife. The princess then gets told her man is actually a m*nster by her jealous sisters meddling in who convince her to sneaks around and finds out the truth about her man. And overcomes some tasks to be with her man again. Pen is definitely eros to colin's psyche. Colin is the princess in this story. They flipped it.😂 Even the dance performers were eros and psyche (the guy had golden wings). The queen wanted it to inspire the lovers and it did, just not who she hoped for. It also explains why they turned colin into a rake this season. They made him psyche. It wasn't about colin pursuing women, it was about the women wanting colin/psyche. Well psyche's journey was to proof her devotion to eros. People wanted colin to grovel for pen. I think the depth of his love for pen is still to come in the second part. If psyche and eros is anything to go by. Colin is gonna go far to be with his g'ddess of love.

@@JoiLouiseReacts I think thats also why they messed up Eloise's story as well. She is psyche's sister convinced eros is the m*nster. Either she tells colin or colin does as psyche did and betrays eros by snooping around and seeing eros's true face. I also get the sense they added all these side characters for a reason. In the eros myth psyche overcomes many hurdles to prove her devotion to eros. She manages to overcome impossible odds cause the other g'ds help her. I think these side characters might be added cause they will help them in the end. There is a reason for their presence, I hope. Some of the obstacles are obvious. The LW thing, how society views her, the queen's obs*ssion with LW, creceda,Eloise, mama featherington dev*lueing her daughter and obs*ssion with money. Its colin's job to convince pen he loves her and would do anything to be with her. Especially if colin is good with words, this is gonna be good. Cause yeah pen will need some convincing someone actually loves her.

I think because it's her 3rd season out as well, so the parents are trying to make her more noticeable kind of parallel to why Lady F used to dress Penelope in bright yellow, which back fires on both these parents. I also feel like Cressida is secretly jealous of Penelope since the 1st season because Penelope is really close to the Bridgertons despite being unpopular in the society as opposed to Cressida was in season 1 or 2. So, I don't buy into her redemption arch. She's always on her way to steal or copy Penelope's style or thing or person. Remember the one where Pen looked lovely in pink dress & Cressida spilt drinks on her in front of Colin only for him to reject Cressida's advance & took Pen for a dance, after that she's been doubling down on pink dress. Butterfly is kind of Penelope's or the Featherington's family symbol, Cressida started wearing butterflies symbol on her dress this season. She got close to Eloise once she realised Pen & Eloise weren't talking anymore. She was obsessed with attracting Lord Debling, especially when he showed interest only in Penelope.

Ooof! This is a great wardrobe analysis! I too believe Cressida is threatened by Pen. And while I think her friendship with Eloise is genuine it is definitely convenient post El and Pen’s breakup. 🤔 Cressida is shallow, performative and mean spirited. As Daphne mentioned in season 1, “She is still unwed and untitled” and it’s for good reason. No gentlemen wants someone who doesn’t know who they are or what they want. They definitely don’t want anyone mean or cruel. Hoping her character does a 180 soon, and that Eloise comes to her senses about this new friendship. I don’t see her being friends with the two of them. 🤷🏾♀️

My only wonder is why, when you question if someone is gay in the Bridgerton universe you hold up a limp wrist? This gesture is so 1980’s homophobic/insulting. You did it when discussing Brimsley in Queen Charlotte and again here in season 3 in regard to Benedict. Just say “Is he gay?” It is a valid question within the Bridgerton Universe, with all the societal rules and such. I cannot wait to watch your commentary on the last 4 episodes of season 3!

I just found your channel and can I just say, you're gorgeous! I'm so glad I've found a new reaction channel to help me get through the wait for part 2. I loved what you were saying about the shift in Colin's feelings for Pen starting in ep 1 at the four seasons ball. I really feel like Colin's already in love with her, he just doesn't realize it yet because the way he behaves around her is so not platonic, it's kinda funny. Even in S2 ep 8, when he takes her hand and brings her into the study to tell her about Cousin Jack's scam, like we saw the effect that had on her, she was like, omg it's finally happening for me. Poor thing, Colin was obviously still a big dummy in S2 lmao. But just in the first couple of episodes of this season, when they shake hands and he holds her hand in both of his, when he puts his hand on her back to bring her to the Bridgerton drawing room. There's always been a natural sort of intimacy between them because of their friendship, that I think he couldn't even recognize the shift into more than platonic territory, until they kiss and his life is forever ruined in the very best way 😆 I also think that when he proposed to Marina in S1 and Anthony was like, "You're still green, you barely know her, you don't know what you're getting into" and Colin was so certain he was in love with her, but it turned out Anthony was right, he didn't know Marina as well as he thought he did. I think that also shook his confidence in his ability to know himself and how he's feeling. Which is what makes the whole Lady Whistledown elephant in the room so painful, because he's known Pen for way longer than he knew Marina, it's gonna hurt him so much more that she's kept this from him. I also think, like we obviously know Pen's put Colin on a pedestal for years and 2x08 was what knocked him off that pedestal and made her realize he's not perfect. I think Colin puts Pen on a pedestal too. Last season he was always talking about how constant and loyal she is. That it's been her this entire time who's written now two articles that have hurt him so deeply and she's hurt Marina and Eloise, as well, is really gonna rattle his perception of her. But I do think they both need those moments where they realize the other isn't perfect, they've made mistakes, but they want to grow from them and to grow together. I also think Pen needs to really confront the hurt she's caused with Whistledown. I think finding out from Colin that Marina seemed content with her life last season, really assuaged any guilt she had about outing Marina's pregnancy. She was obviously trying to save Eloise from the queen's wrath and felt like she was in a situation with no good answers. I think Colin's gonna be the one to force her to reckon with the power and influence she has and how she's been a little reckless with it at times. Or it could also conceivably be a confrontation with Eloise, I suppose? Either way, I hope Whistledown can end up being a great vehicle for character growth for Pen. Sorry for the essay lmao, I obviously love these two and I'm getting v antsy waiting for part 2 and all I wanna do is talk about them haha 😂 Okay, I'm gonna go back and watch your Queen Charlotte reactions now

Omg! Polin is my favorite Bridgerton couple. Hands down! I actually just bought the book today. I plan on reading the story after the season ends. So I can still have them around for a bit. 🤭 I fell in love with Penelope’s character because can relate to the way her mother speaks to her. I have female family members that spoke to me in a similar way as a child. Also, she’s such a boss on the inside and I resonate with that as well. I want love, passion and success for Pen because I’ve always wanted it for myself. I see so much of me in this character. I too was bullied as a girl by other girls that secretly saw me as a threat to their own insecurities. I too am a writer and creative, so Pen is me! 🥰 Colin falling in love with her so is soooo satisfying and I loved watching all of her dreams and desires for his love unfold in episode four. Society is going to quake when the “laughing stock” of the ton is married into the Bridgerton family. It’s the ultimate checkmate. And my heart is so full for this character, my bestie in my head, my twin flame. ☺️ I love talking to you all about this show because I too am in love with the story. and while waiting for the second half is torture it is one that I don’t want to ever go way.

@@JoiLouiseReacts I hope you enjoy the book! I did a reading vlog for it in anticipation of season 3 because I needed something to get through the wait haha. While I don't personally get along with Julia Quinn's writing, their book is my favorite of the ones I've read in the series, which is how they became my favorite couple because if the show could make me fall in love with Kanthony when I hated their book, I was like, Polin is gonna hit so hard for me in the show. I do feel like I should warn you, Pen's a lot more self-deprecating about her appearance in the book than she is in the show and it can be hard to read. I know this book was written in the early 2000s and that was quite prevalent in romance back then, but still, I'm glad they did away with that in the show because Nicola's gorgeous and none of us were gonna tolerate any of that lmao. There are some really great scenes between Colin and Pen in the book that I think you'll really appreciate though and I'd love to hear your thoughts when you do read it! It's always so great meeting other people online who are so invested in Polin and I love that you see yourself in Pen because she's such a great character. So excited to see your reaction to eps 3&4 and can't wait for us all to be able to watch part two! But I am also gonna miss when Polin season is over. I do love that I'm seeing Luke and Nicola talk about being excited for season 4 though, so it'll be cool to see them just be happy together in future seasons like we saw with Kanthony in 3x01 (and hopefully we'll see them more in part 2).

@@JoiLouiseReacts True, but it seems to me that the goal was to make sure all the young ladies would have a general look so that they would be easily identifiable in a crowd. The goal is to present them to society all at once. Perhaps not wanting any one to have any specific advantage in terms of clothes so that their presentation is what will draw--their looks, their bearing. Even all the clothes seem similar. From what I remember as well, the other colors beyond white and cream were seen as appropriate only once the girls were presented.

Penolise is the other main yearning love story that is breaking me! They are so broken hearted, it hurts so! I also think El reading 'Emma' is something tied to both Pen and Cressida but it isn't clear yet. She is pulling Cressida back because after the shunning last season, I think she stepped in for El vs being alone and decided she needed to open her world view more.

Everyone needs to take accountability for their actions honestly. Lots of soul cleansing is needed. I do see a genuine friendship between Cressida and Eloise, however, that is clear.

If Eloise was a good friend I'd agree. I won't even go into her "not like other girls" shade of feminism. What I'll say is that she's always been incredibly uninterested in anything Penelope-related. You know, her "bestie". She didn't catch on to her feelings for Colin... Marina did, after just one season. She said out loud that she never really paid attention to what her friend talked about until the end of season 2. She's shocked that Pen didn't want to be a spinster like her, and I don't blame Pen for not setting her straight, considering Eloise is a bit of a Judgy McJudge (a lot of that judgment she was exposed to during their conversations and was especially directed at women in search of a husband, her sister Daphne included). She fails to understand that Pen, just like Cressida, comes from a very unsupportive family who treats her like garbage and must get married to get away and be free. She doesn't see the privilege that she has in her own family. Ironically, some people feel like Cressida is justified in being an awful and cruel bully because her dad is mean, while at the same time, they think Pen using LW as a coping mechanism is somehow unacceptable. Pen has hyped the Bridgertons on her papers way more times than she talked trash. She's the one who raised Daphne to Diamond status. Eloise used to looove LW... And let's sit a minute on the fact that Pen was more comfortable sharing her secret with Madame de La Croix than with Eloise. Pen is far from perfect and made some very poor choices, but people really need to stop their "Eloise is a perfect little angel who has done no wrong" spiel.

Thank you for sharing your insightful analysis of the characters in the series. Eloise and Pen have both done things that have been hurtful to one another and I do believe perspective will bring them back together. I agree that Eloise gets painted in a better light, but she is FAR from perfect. Especially this season. How can you be friends with the Ton Bully?! Just disloyal and weird. Lol! Pen needs to take accountability for those she's hurt in her life. I hope she finds release.

💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔 I don’t know if words can convey the depth of how they hurt me with Colin. From the moment I heard that they were going to turn Colin into a rake I knew that they ruined him. And ruined the entire story 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 (Colin had been taught, all his young life, that it was his duty as a gentleman to protect, care for, and defend the fairer sex.) Colin declaring that he is a true gentleman in season 1. [Means] As a gentlemen he considered himself worthy of veneration due to earn respect not handed it on a silver platter, his unearned entitlement had never warped his sense of moral conscience. He does not see women as decorative object or a prize to be won. 🥇 This is why Penelope loves him. ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️ I honestly won’t ever forgive the writers for ruining the character. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 When they took Colins, sweet innocence and naivety. They took something special from him. Because the way that Penelope loves, Colin is so innocent 😇 and pure. Having Violet do a scene saying how sensitive and different. Colin is. Doesn’t salvage the damage that they’ve done. You know what they could’ve done and said they could’ve showed us that he was this person. Instead of breaking the number one ☝️ visual media rule show and tell, don’t just tell. 🌏🌏🌏🌏🌏🌏🌏🌏🌏🌏🌏🌏🌏Colins desire to travel 🧳 is not to Rake across the continent 🌏having sex escapades, to fetishize it into his journal 📔 he travels for beauty for adventure architecture, culture and history because he’s a nerd 🧐 just like Penelope. The fact is, Colin was a different character. He was set up to be a different character. (TVShow Colin) why couldn’t he be the sweet💛Hufflepuff🦡. Foodie 🍰who seek purpose and greater meaning with his life with intimacy? 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞 Imagine if he’d come back as hot, sturdy Colin but still had his puppy 🐶 energy. Had all the ladies swooning over him but he doesn’t pay any attention because he’s focused on Pen’s lessons. Then he notices all the attention he’s getting because there’s one person who he’s not getting attention from anymore because the lessons work. When I think 🤔 on it, a few more things bother me about the plot. 😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔 1. Pen doesn’t write Colin back during his travels. Why didn’t that bother him? Because if he had feelings all along (I think he did and S2 had us believing he did) then he should have been increasingly unhinged by not hearing back from her. And worried about her. 2. This is a man who pledged to take care of her in season 2. Where is he? Instead he just goes off to be a slut in 17 cities? And doesn’t give two shits about a friend not writing him back? Just goes and fucks some more sex workers and Countesses? Let me write about it in my journals too! 3. His apology was glib and unworthy of Penelope and their friendship. They made it about Penelope thinking she is unworthy not Colin being a drunk ass and insulting her to eligible bachelors/her chances on the marriage mart. 4.He didn’t bring presents🎁 back for her. So was he even thinking 💭 about her ? At all ? You would think when you’re shopping for presents for everybody someone who special to you would be on your mind to get them something. 5.Colin comes back does the same whoring about the entire time he is teaching Penelope lessons (for weeks apparently) and then kisses her because he feels sorry for her. Ugh that is so gross to me. 6.Then because he is supposedly so despondent over Pen having a suitor, he goes back to fuck some sex workers again. 7.He only gets up enough courage to tell Penelope how he feels once he knows she is getting proposed to. Like he couldn’t call on her, not even once, or bribe her maid again, to see her and explain how he feels. Instead it’s poor me me me me…. I keep asking myself why I should want ShondaColin with Penelope. She deserves sooo much better than him. Ugh… 😣 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋 It would’ve been just as spicy 🥵 repressed newly discovering virgins. There is such a thing as horny virgins. The excited exploration. The cute hilarious awkwardness. The wonder of a whole New World unlocked Wasted potential. (The fanfic did it better.) First awakenings are extremely sexy. And there’s so much more special. 🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️ if the two teens in blue Lagoon could figure it out on the deserted island. 🏝️ there’s no reason why Colin and Penelope can’t figure it out especially since Colin has the knowledge of the logistics of how it works. The friends to lover audience. Are deeply romantic we don’t want frivolous fucking. This was supposed to be our season. We were robbed of something beautiful 😍 I specifically only wanted him to be a whore for Penelope. Only Rabbid for Penelope. I wanted her to be his first kiss and first time, especially since we were getting a secondhand proposal. now she gets no first and everything is secondhanded and a hand me down. Because Penelope and Colin are sentimental writers ✍🏻 who document every monumental event in their life’s. We as the romantic fan base were expecting The friends to lover❤️Trope. To be more intimate. A story where Colin and Penelope have their first awakening together. I was hoping that the show would give me an improved version of Odysseus the wayward wanderer. as Colin. 🗺️I didn’t like Greek myth Odysseus. I didn’t think he deserved faithfully waiting Penelope. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 The disgusting mentality of a Rake an insecure man who uses women and their bodies as less so they can feel like more. Throwing money at systematically oppressed women for cheap thrills, isn’t sexy it’s not romantic. Only for his soulmate to change him. They didn’t have to make him a Rake to tell the same story of insecurity. 🎪🎪🎪🎪🎪🎪🎪🎪🎪🎪🎪🎪🎪 I had no problem with him being a Showboat, who is charming with a false public image. Him being a virgin erotic writer. Would show that Colin has dichotomy and layers to him like Penelope who is whistledown and people think she’s more mature or older than she is. 🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠 Why keep telling the same story about a rake. Who’s raking away his problems until. The soulmate changes him. The story had so much potential and they could’ve done it better without the Rake plot. The friends to lover. Trope. Is for the deeply romantic. 🥰 it’s the innocence of love. ❤️ they alienated Colin for his fan base. When they made him into a wannabe Casanova. They could easily made him a fake Casanova who’s just lying 🤥 to fit in. That would’ve been something different. It would’ve made him more endearing and intriguing instead of another. Man Whore

You are very entitled to your opinions, but I honestly don't think I agree with any of them. I think the show is taking a lot more subtle and nuanced approach with Colin's story...I think on the surface we are meant to think that Colin has turned into a Rake because that is what Colin wants society to think, because that is a way for him to fit in more and be like his brothers. However, there are clues and imagery and even moments of Luke Newton's acting that just show he is not a Rake at all. You see it with his brothers in the carriage upon Colin returning asking why he hasn't written them and how he is holding so much back from the family when he is giving them presents...they didn't want to know anything about his travels last season so he is now closing himself off....and then with his journal the passages he wrote actually reflect a deep loneliness....even surrounded by the beauty of the cities and women he feels "alone" and "distant." Eloise even mentions to him in the first episode that this new personality of his seems to be a lonely way to live. Colin is trying to repress himself and his feelings constantly because in the first and second season those feelings were always being laughed at or mocked. So what would a sensitive boy do, one who has expectations upon him....he would act like his brothers....those same brothers who in prior seasons got him drunk and told him to go to brothels, etc. So I don't think that the show ruined Colin's character at all, I think they made him much more realistic and parallels to how sensitive men are seen/perceived and possibly even trying to fit in in today's society. You don't need to be a virgin to have an awakening....for Colin his awakening in the books/ show to me has never been a sexual one, it was always an emotional one .... his longing for that emotional tether, the one person who allows and accepts his feelings and sensitivities. I think it is even more romantic to show a man who has so many sexual experiences and is lonely find a true and deep emotional connection, which makes sex go from just fu*king to actual love making. That is super hot to me! This is probably why Season 3 is already shaping up to be my favorite season, and Colin is shaping up to be my favorite Bridgerton.....while the books previously gave that title to Benedict....I feel more of an emotional connection to Colin now and the show has even made me interpret the books in a new way and now Colin might even be my fave in the books too! LOL

@@CKeel88 🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃 This type of characterization does not make any sense for Colins character. 👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾👨🏾 The new show-runner decides to redo Simon‘s ark. And just scrap the character that they set up for two seasons. Simon’s ark makes sense for him. It makes sense why he would be so selfish. He is an abused, traumatized man. 👨🏾 Who is touch starved? And affection starved. He’s never really known love devotion safety. Affection & Acceptance. Colin doesn’t struggle from any of that. He grew up in a loving household. He’s always been supported and taken care of. The level of the disrespect of how they destroyed Colins character in comparison to every single other male character. Is an unforgivable offense. 1. Anthony at least had the decency to get himself a consistent mistress for years. so he’s not fathering potential bastards to be ignored. An STD’s 2. Benedict doesn’t pay for prostitutes. He sleeps with willing independent empowered women. not systematically oppressed prostitutes. 3. John Sterling is adorable. 4. Lord Debling by comparison, a truly secure man 🧍♂️ who stands for his own conviction. 5. Featherington girls husbands are cinnamon rolls The Colin we got. Is undeserving of. The ever faithful ever waiting, {Penelope}. Loyal to Odysseus wayward wondering 🤔 Man W***ing ass. They had so much potential. The chemistry and story in season 1 and 2 were so cute and refreshing but the writers instead chose to turn it into a typical overused fuckboy redemption story. There are other ways where they could express the 'trying to fit in' storyline but they chose to ruin Colin's character instead. 😤 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️ I can pretend to be a thief, but if I’m actually thieving, then I’m a thief. It’s not a persona or an act. It’s who I am. Because it’s what I’m doing. Having Colin be a sellout to his morals and values. That he once held also dear. After one summer away because Penelope didn’t write ✍🏻 him ? compromises him as man in the eyes 👀 of his fan base. Simon and Anthony never held such values so they weren’t betraying anything. They were never 👎 emotionally intelligent to begin with. This is a journey they had to learn. But Colin is. Had the perfect set up to tell a different story with a different male lead and they copied and paste and did the same exact thing. An emotional intelligent man thinks about these things. When Anthony tried to. Belittle him in season 1. For not being like him. And he proudly stood against it, proclaiming who he was. And who he intends to be. that was sexy to me that was a man. The groundwork was all there. And the fact that Colins’s name actually means (Cub/Pup 🐶 ). And they ruined him by turning him into a dog. 🐕 Colin was supposed to be one of the exceptions. All the Featherington girls were supposed to marry cinnamon rolls. It’s not fake or faking when you actually sell your integrity down the river. Just to be accepted. And become everything you proclaimed that you were not. You are who you choose to be. When your morals can be compromised just for the sake of pointless validation. What would’ve actually given him a leg 🦵 to stand on is if he wasn’t doing everything he suddenly deemed reprehensible. And unworthy of the title of gentlemen If Colin had felt a bone-deep disdain for this ridiculous society that he had been born into. He would’ve held himself to a different standard, hold on to his Morals even if was just privately. (But he didn’t) 👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽 You would think after everything That happened with Marina 🐚, a truly compassionate man, sensitive, thoughtful & caring wouldn’t risk putting bastards into the world just for them to be abandoned. And never know their father. Imagine if Colin father a daughter who ends up being some man’s W****. And Toy 🧸. You would think a man of HONOR would think about Those consequences. Colin was held to a different standard than Simon and Anthony. Is it right? Is it fair? 🤷🏽♀️. He’s the puppy. He’s the sweet loyal Hufflepuff 🦡. He’s supposed to be cuddly and non-threatening one. Simon and Anthony are best friends for a reason they’re both touched in head, assholes. It’s understandable, why they are the way they are. We know from the books that Anthony is planning on dying young like his father so he’s trying to avoid attachments. The man is a bit tweaked in the head from taking on so much responsibility at the age of 18 and having to deal with his postpartum depressed grieving mother and all of his 7 siblings. At the end of Anthony season. He learned that the man that he was was no man at all. He was a reprehensible thoughtless Cad. Who needed to humble himself to deserve his soulmate. And you’re telling me the lesson Colin learned in this is be a W*** in 17 cities. 🌆 Colin is a trust fund brat, who gets to travel the world on his rich 🤑 inheritance. Making him a Mr. World international Rake. Makes him extremely selfish. Even more than Simon and Anthony. I saw on Instagram a interview that the actor (Luke) didn’t like the whole brothel scene. He said the characterization came out of nowhere for him. Kinda took him by surprise. 😮 It’s one thing to surprise your audience with a character change, but to completely deform the character to point your wondering, who the hell is this creep? Long story short Colins reasoning for becoming this man is empty and hollow and it makes Colin looks empty and hollow. Colin have spoken so strongly against the practice before. a true gentleman would never expose his lady to such a health hazard. What does it mean of Colin, that you would risk Penelope like that?" I despise Colin‘s characterization. (Chris) S 1-2 show-runner in 2022 said {Polin} was going to have some *Emma* influence’s with a bit of *Clueless* vibe he was setting up Colin to be the (Cher) of the Bridgerton universe, the ‘Clueless’ “Virgin who can’t drive” (Jess) S3 show-runner turned him into a disgusting 🤮 rake because her grandmother likes smut. 🤨

@@CKeel88💯agree with all of this. I never got the impression in the show or the book that Colin was a virginal character. Book Colins internal thoughts of what he wanted to do to pen in the drawing room and in front of the mirror make that clear. Also him and pen are significantly older in the book. As for the show men of that era were almost always taken to brothels when they came of age. While I don’t think he went often I do believe he had gone at least once. He was just more sentimental. I think the show has done a great job bringing to life the fact that Colin is lost, unsure of himself & his purpose. The storyline with marina really shook him. He was in a way played for a fool and embarrassed in front of the ton. Then when he saw her again last season she basically reiterated that he was clueless and didn’t really know what he had or what he wanted. All that perfectly set up his desire to reinvent himself. He tried courting one girl and marrying her and it blew up in his face so he decided to play the field a bit, be less sentimental and more free spirited like his brothers. I appreciate that he evolves and comes to realize that isn’t who he is. He’s a one woman man, he just hadn’t committed to the right woman with Marina. When he has the realization that it’s not just affection he has for Pen but also real passion he doesn’t waste time or torture them both. He goes all in, humbles himself before her, confesses his feelings and proposes. He found the person who anchors him.

Disclaimer: I have not read the books so I can only go off of what the show displays and my interpretations of it. I am more than okay with you disagreeing with my opinions, the world would be so boring if we all just agreed with each other, no? Just bought the book today. I know there is only so much the series can fit into 8 episodes. I am excited to dive deeper into the Colin & Penelope story. I think I owe it to myself as they are my favorite couple. Does the book show more of his journal writings? I hope so. I don’t know that the show ruined his character, I am not sure as I have not see n much of him beyond Pen pining after him and him loving to travel. I think me reading the book will give me the insight your trying to express.

I think she has, you know, when she wrote endorsement for the Modiste, Mdm Delacroix by critising the new modiste's style for Cressida's gown in season 2. LW can't comment about something without any gossip circulating within the ton. Plus as vicious as she can be behind her pen, Penelope never wants to criticise someone just for a spite. She only ever wrote it once out of spite against Colin after the horrible night she had & when Colin came to greet her only for her to misunderstand his genuine compliments.
