Season 2 Anthony || Season 3 Colin
Colin, my wife, feeling proud of himself.
Colin Bridgerton: Incredibly Eager to Wife Penelope Up.
Colin: We’re a team, right? Ride or die?
Penelope: Yeah, I’d totally ride you.

Penelope: we can get the marriage annulled if you want
Colin: I’d actually rather die
Do you know what it is like to have nowhere in the world you can truly be yourself?
PENELOPE'S ENGAGEMENT RING AND WEDDING RING
Bridgerton Screen time
After watching all of season 3 of Bridgerton, I decided to go back and time the amount of time that Penelope and Colin were seen. I felt as though they weren’t seen nearly enough, even though it was meant to be their season.
Below I have broken down each episode, and have how much time they spent on screen out of how many minutes the episode was. I have then done a percentage of how much time we saw them on screen (I have rounded it).
Season 3 Part 1
Episode 1: 26.03 out of 54.10 = 48%
Episode 2: 24.58 out of 48.18 = 51%
Episode 3: 25.57 out of 51.02 = 50%
Episode 4: 25.38 out of 51.10 = 50%
Part 1:
101.56 out of 204.40 = 50%
Season 3 Part 2
Episode 5: 31.02 out of 54.50 = 57%
Episode 6: 26.33 out of 63.30 = 42%
Episode 7: 27.48 out of 57.30 = 48%
Episode 8: 31.18 out of 67.01 = 47%
Part 2:
116.01 out of 242.11 = 48%
Season 3
Total: 217.57 out of 446.51 = 49%
As you can see, even though it was their season, Penelope and Colin, weren’t even really on screen for half of it!
I went back and read all of the letters you have sent me. Your letters have always been the ones I am most eager to read. Bridgerton 3.08 - “Into the Light”
How did he receive her letter in France when she didn't respond to him during his last tour?
as much as i adored the beautiful moments in part two, i think i will forever be partial to part one. it had awkwardness, playfulness, the first kiss, the yearning, jealousy, joy, protectiveness, flirting, confessions of love, desire, intimacy, the proposal —
and that sweet, glorious moment when the friends actually did become lovers.......
it has a lot to do with my personal feelings of fluff over angst. i just love the way part one felt. it was so pure and innocent, and dramatic and tense. i just really loved watching these two fools dance around each other in the beginning <3
Swept up in Expectations
As an anxious and curious person, I couldn’t help but check every now and then to see what the vibe was for P2 before watching it myself. After all the excitement during the wait between P1 and 2, nothing could have prepared me for the whiplash I felt reading disappointed and equally ecstatic posts from reactions to Eps 5 to 8.
Now that I’ve seen the episodes myself I’m trying to make sense of how I felt so I’m putting the figurative pen to paper and hope anyone as confused as I am can ruminate with me.
To put simply - I think we were all swept up in the excitement of Nic and Luke’s press tour (a whole other can of worms for some) and the many spoilers, speculations, and info from cast interviews during the wait between P1 and 2 that appeared to have been Polin positive. This energy then ballooned our expectations. I personally forgot that although Bridgerton is endearing and fun, it’s ultimately not a BBC or HBO production (I love Bridgerton but it’s no Pulitzer Prize winner in writing). So I think we expected more and are crashing from our collective highs.
Then there’s Polin and Penelope. As someone who didn’t personally enjoy S1 and 2 stories, S3 was going to be one I could truly enjoy and romanticize, and experience that Bridgerton brainrot everyone keeps taking about. Admittedly, it took me listening to some discourse and a second watch to truly appreciate P1. I’ve come away with so much love for Polin and their unfolding love story as well as Pen’s journey. The friends to lovers trope is beautiful, sweet, endearing, romantic, with a lot of history between two people. It had me singing along at the top of my lungs to Taylor Swift in the car even though it’s not my usual type of music. I was swooned and romanced.
But Part 2 was…. rough…. (Ramblings below)
100% agree
BRIDGERTON | Season 3, Episode 8, “Into the Light”
I am going to be complainy for a second and say that my personal opinion on part 2…
Is that we only got what 10 minutes of happy married polin at the end of episode 8. Yes we had episode 5 and episode 6, but there wasn’t a lot of polin content and there was still Whistledown ruining this moment, especially in episode 6! Even the happiness of the wedding was ruined for me after the scene where Colin storms out.
For me, there is only episode 5 and ten minutes of episode 8 that are truly polin being in love and happy. I felt like there was too much angst for a couple that has been set up in two previous seasons.
I just wanted happy married polin with no Whistledown for entire episode
