If I Was Penelope I Would Be So Embarrassed. Colin Says One Bad Thing About You And You Not Only Ghost

If I was Penelope I would be so embarrassed. Colin says one bad thing about you and you not only ghost him but you hold a grudge for months. Colin finds out that you're Lady Whistledown, someone who has talked shit about him and his family behind their backs, and he gets over it in 2 weeks.

People calling Colin a drama queen like Penelope isn't the biggest drama queen out of the two of them.

✨CONGRATS BRIDGERTON SEASON 3!!!✨

This is the final count for the show, so it’s officially at #6 on the Netflix most popular chart at 106 million views! It should be a while before S3 is knocked off the list. Hope this means more Bridgerton in the future with an announcement for renewing for seasons 5 & 6.

Polin’s season was so loved! Luke Newton and Nicola Coughlan should be proud of the work they did to lead Bridgerton and reintroduce the show to new audiences and fans. They can walk into the beginning of filming for the next season with their heads held high!

Random thoughts on Colin & Portia:

I loved watching how the “neighbor boy,” Portia Featherington assumed was a typical rakish gentleman, out of reach and unrealistic for Penelope to like:

Declared his love for her daughter assuredly, fervently and loudly to make sure nobody dared question that he wanted to marry her.

Defended Penelope fiercely even against her own mother to make clear that mistreating or disrespecting his woman would not be tolerated.

Discovered Penelope was Lady Whistledown (after he himself said no one would ever marry LW because she would bring ruin on her family) but not only did he not end the engagement despite being upset with Penelope about it, he married her anyway and his vows were undeniably heartfelt and sincere, he gave her a wedding ring which was not necessary or common practice at the time apparently (Daphne just got the one ring from Simon), and he danced with her in broad daylight at their wedding breakfast (rather romantically).

He was immediately furious the second he heard that someone would dare blackmail his wife, and not only would he not stand for it, he immediately acted (however misguidedly he did so) intending to protect Penelope and when the situation escalated, he was willing to lie to his family and pay a fortune to keep her safe.

And much to Portia’s surprise, he took accountability for his part in making things worse when he could have blamed everything on Penelope.

Then Colin supported Penelope’s choice about how to handle the LW situation and when she revealed herself to the ton.

When Penelope offered him an annulment to free himself of association with Lady Whistledown, he insisted he was lucky just to be with her because he loved her.

Then Colin danced with Penelope, clearly sending the message to the ton that he loved and supported his wife. Lady Whistledown did not trap him nor would he be turning his back on her. This was our first glimpse of Colin “My Wife” Bridgerton.

Colin gave Penelope a son, and the Featherington estate the heir they so desperately needed, and Colin will no doubt raise her grandson to be a man of honor, elevating the formerly mocked and disrespected Featherington family to a level of respectability on par with the Bridgertons.

As if that weren’t enough, Colin continues to support Penelope as a wife and mother, encouraging her passion for writing/working.

That Bridgerton neighbor boy single-handedly made his mother-in-law, a justifiably jaded cynic, believe in love.

I cannot wait to see their relationship in future seasons.

we said we wanted real lover boys back and then they blessed us with colin bridgerton

Something I didn’t think I’d like this much is how the Bridgerton glowup in season 3 is shown as an active choice by both leading characters. When they show off Anthony’s new look in s2 it’s something passive, like the producers are telling the audience “remember that guy from s1? Well now we’re showing you how hot he can really get!!!”. Colin and Penelope though? They both individually made the choice to try and change themselves physically and mentally to commit to getting hoes. Which power to them I guess!!! I mean, it failed (and they still just ended up being hot losers who would actually jump from the nearest tall building if they had to entertain the idea of being with anyone else except for each other) but hey they tried!!! bless their hearts ❤️❤️❤️
