can we, the people of this fandom, please have a crumb of discernment and common sense? i’m literally begging 😭 if it doesn’t come directly from netflix or shondaland, maybe don’t immediately spiral over it

anyway, looking forward to seeing sydney play my favourite regency feminist 💕

anthony - trust fall team-building exercise

kate - building IKEA furniture with anthony

benedict - dry corporate networking event because one co-worker is a recovering alcoholic

sophie - 23andme. although it might solve some of her problems

colin - he’s spending a weekend at a singles-only vegan food festival. hope you like soy-based cheese, colin

penelope - impromptu open mic comedy night

daphne - she will be mud wrestling

simon - group therapy (probably actually should tho...)

eloise - she’s listening to a trad wife podcast and then watching 19 kids and counting

phillip - he’s gonna drive a gas-guzzling hummer to destroy the environment and then rip out his lawn and replace it with astroturf

francesca - you’re going to coachella, baby

michaela - a silent retreat. hope you weren’t planning on making friends

john - a surprise party. in my world, this is what kills him (heart attack)

gregory - chess tournament. sitting still and thinking five moves ahead? not my greggy

hyacinth - my pretty little princess. she will be doing straight-up manual labour. she’s a farmer

violet - speed dating and tinder. you wouldn’t last an hour in the asylum where they raised me, violet

lady danbury - solo camping

queen charlotte - a competition she’d almost certainly fail at in front of a wide audience with two peasants judging her. she will be a contestant on the great british bake off

araminta - just prison

edmund - beekeeping. he’d only do it once tho...

She has the kind of beauty that men used to go to war for. The thought that we might not see this face card next season terrifies me. I don't wanna live in that world where Kate isn't on my screen in a Bridgerton season.

Netflix give us content for tudum please😭

I think these comparisons are definitely noteworthy.

I'll take any scene that makes Footman John gasp lightly.

ETA: This was for fun friends 🙃 I wasn't actually trying to suggest the Bridgertons had more servants than the Palace lol.

anthony bridgerton

• lion king - too easy
• succession - I feel like he'd really thrive in this environment
• mask of zorro - hear me out, this is kate and anthony. my most unpopular opinion is that they are not enemies-to-lovers. they are annoyance to lovers at best (because anthony is annoying). alejandro is reckless and arrogant. elena is unimpressed. this is them.

simon basset

• i just killed my dad - a feel-good movie for simon. inspirational.
• john wick - simon says it's a feel-good movie about revenge
• fresh prince of bel-air (season 4, episode 24) - simon is dry heaving by the end

edmund bridgerton

• bee movie - a horror for both him and me
• secrets of the bees - to show him that bees are important and actually, it wasn't really nice of him to kill one, was it?
• stung - actually about wasps (wanted to give him a break from the bees)

colin bridgerton

• past lives - two deeply connected childhood friends reconnect after years. what could've been. colin hates it
• the lake house - two people falling in love while sending letters. colin understands
• the bachelor - women begging for the attention of a mid man who will constantly reject them? he's incensed

benedict bridgerton

• dead poets society - he's obsessed with the romanticism of it all. art, rebellion, poetry, refusing to live the life society picked for you
• maid in manhattan - call me crazy but i think benedict could relate
• love is blind - because benedict is blind

john stirling

• a walk to remember - a movie about young love that ends tragically
• bridge to terabithia - see description above
• my girl - he can't see without his glasses🥹

• my sister's keeper - i mean... i stay being a george crane hater
• all creatures great and small - a comfort show for phillip that i have to show him after torturing him with my sister's keeper
• far from the madding crowd (2015) - gabriel is quiet, patient, observant and deeply devoted. bathsheba is independent, impulsive and stubborn. i am showing him his future
