It’s such sloppy writing that they set up a wager between Penelope and Queen Charlotte in episode 1 just to never provide any resolution to it.
Colin never really got to express to her how deeply it hurt him that she didn’t respond to his letters and how it contributed to his facade. Do you think she regretted not writing back to him or did she view that time apart as necessary for their relationship to heal since she was so angry with him?
I also hope we get Penelope Crane in the show. It will be even more poignant with Colin and Penelope already naming their son after Eloise.
I just finished season 2, and while the main trio is great, my favorite characters are Theo and Teddy. I didn’t know Nathan Lane was capable of playing a character like this. I’ve only ever really seen him play comics or the town gossip. I also kind of ship Theo and Mabel after watching episode 7 of season 2.
I think Benedict’s stunt double looks a bit like Phillip. 😆 Any other examples of mistakes? I know you can see two crew men in masks in the background during Colin and Penelope’s dance the final episode of season 2.
This edit does a good job of painting that picture.
Ian Somerhalder’s character in Dominance immediately comes to mind. He forced his victims to rape each other before he killed them, and it was revealed that he was raping his own brother (played by Jason Ritter).
Violet is clearly not in the minority when it comes to failing to educate her daughters on sex, but I never seen Portia getting the same heat for allowing her daughters to remain ignorant. Is it because Philippa’s ignorance was played for comedy while Daphne’s was played for drama?
I’ll always be grateful for the Polin moments Luke and Nicola gave us.
The ending of Raw comes to mind.
Olivia: People must have been surprised who knew you. Two racists like you adopting a little Black boy.
Janice Whitlock: We're not racists. We just needed the money.
I often see it ranked as the worst best picture winner, and the consensus seems to be that it was a career achievement award for Cecil B. Demille which is kind of ironic since he would make The Ten Commandments four years later, and he probably should’ve won for that movie instead. What do you think?
I always thought Novi Stars were whimsical and unique and they deserved more of a fair shake. I’ve seen some discussions about them being more akin to action figures because of the lack of articulation, but that never really bothered me.
I think mine is season 2’s “Manhunt”. He’s so kind to the victim throughout the episode and even visits her at her apartment at the end to let her know that her tormentor can no longer hurt her.
She hasn’t cried at any of her other siblings’ wedding (Kate and Anthony’s was offscreen, but I doubt she cried during it). Were they happy tears for her best friend and brother or was there some underlying sadness because she felt like she was losing Penelope?
I don’t think the general audience is as invested in either character (particularly Gregory), and I fear viewership numbers might fall off hard for seasons 7 and 8, especially if all of the previous siblings are gone by that point.
Would love to ask wardrobe about it. He doesn’t wear it before season 4.
I wish they had just kept their marriage timeline vague because he says this after episode 2 in which months are supposed to have passed between Benedict meeting Sophie at the masquerade and meeting her again at the party. We also see Elliot sitting up on his own unassisted in that episode which puts him around 9 months old.
The new casting call suggests that Polin’s second child will be a boy in season 5, so I love the idea of Penelope and Eloise having daughters at the same time in season 6 or 7. Eloise’s first child was a girl named Penelope in the books, and Polin named their first child after Eloise in the show. Polin and Philoise are tethered.
