Bridgerton Season 2 Watch and Discuss Thread (Spoilers)Hi is there a watch thread for season 2 ? I've been looking for it but can't find anything
True but that was the only way to secure a good life.It’s beyond disturbing how parents mostly mothers were pimping out their daughters at a young age to get married. And also if the man is rich why does he need her dowry??
Finished it. I agree that all of the brothers are basic as hell looking, with Benedict being the best looking of the lot. I know they're white Brits so the pool of attractive actors likely wasn't sizable, but they could have tried harder to get better-looking guys to play these roles.
After episode 6 I could not stand Daphne. It's bad enough she did what she did but then to go around acting as if she was the injured party. No one told her to assume the reason for why he could not have kids, she could have asked him. Even though he did not offer an explanation initially he was at least upfront about kids not being a part of their marriage before they married. She knew what she was getting into. Then for her to be so dismissive of why he made that vow and still make it all about her and how he wronged her. I was so annoyed, I could not even enjoy the xes scenes or their relationship from that moment forward.
I am happy that Siena had enough sense for both she and Anthony to put a stop to his fantasy. She was right he would bear none of the burdens if they came out together in society, she would. It would have been a failed experiment that would have ruined her because the ton would have made her an example to others for trying to rise above her station, especially since it's wasn't as if she was just working or middle class but was a member of the demimonde. I want more of the series but I don't know how I am going to deal with Anthony. He is positively irksome. I would also be surprised if they hired a black actress to play his love interest in the next film. I think they will make her Asian if they racebend her. I just don't think they will do two back to back black/white love interest especially since Benedict is also with a WOC of African descent.
I love Lady Danbury. The jaunty hats, great dresses, and look of mischief on her face. I would love a whole miniseries just on how she went from scared mouse to becoming the fierce being that she is.
I think if the roles were reversed everyone would see it as rape.
If the Duke was on top of her and she said stop and he aggressively kept fµck!ng her there wouldn't be anyone missing the "rape" Once Someone says stop, you stop
Similar to people in this thread calling him toxic for her but ignoring the fact that she is even more toxic.
My friend calls it "the shonda rhimes interracial agenda" LMFAOOOO.I just finished watching the show earlier this month and I wasn't impressed I would have loved to see a black love story in this. I believe Hollywood does this because they don't want a Black love story showcased on the screen. They clearly have an agenda they don't want a black woman and black man in love and happy. Sad smh
I think for some it's that but the biggest reason is money. They want to keep as many yt people watching as possible for the highest possible ratings. They'll mix and match the couples' colors to be edgy or unique but make sure whoever is matched with a yt has facial features and coloring closer to yt ones. And they'll call that diversity when honestly they couldn't care less.I just finished watching the show earlier this month and I wasn't impressed I would have loved to see a black love story in this.

One thing about Shonda--she's consistent and does not deviate. Has she ever featured a relatively healthy Black Love relationship (and I mean 2 unambiguous-looking fully Black people) in any of her projects? She had Danbury's Black husband in Queen Charlotte looking over-the-top grotesque. And to add insult to injury, she didn't get a hot love affair with someone young and handsome after Lord Danbury croaked. Sometimes I wonder how Shonda really feels about being Black and about other Black people in general. But that's whole other topic.My friend calls it "the shonda rhimes interracial agenda" LMFAOOOO.
I'm not going to lie what they did to Lady Danbury by having her opposite to... dear heavens they disfigured that black man to be horrendous... felt targeted in soul in my spirit.
None of her projects have any relatively healthy relationships of any racial or xesual orientation combination.Has she ever featured a relatively healthy Black Love relationship (and I mean 2 unambiguous-looking fully Black people) in any of her projects?
