The Rise of Colin "My Wife" Fingerton | Bridgerton S3 E4 Rewatch 

Luke said he purposely didn't have colin eat during the first half of the season. He says so to Pen in his dream. He's so wrapped up in her, this notoriously hungry boy can't even eat. Well, except when he ate that iced bun while staring at her; after watching her buy one and lick the icing off her fingers. That made him hungry. 😂

One of my favorite moments this season (outside of the Polin scenes) is Colin and Violet's talk at the ball in Episode 3. She says "Because he gathered the courage to ask," and Colin immediately looks at Pen across the room. Violet follows his gaze, immediately knows he's in love with Pen, and she becomes very still, for just a moment. When she turns back to Colin, you can tell she is happy, and emotional, but pretends they are still discussing Francesca. Her acting in this moment is so beautiful. She doesn't gape at Pen, or widen her eyes, or raise her eyebrows, her jaw doesn't drop in shock, she just becomes very still, so we know that she knows. She also knows her son is afraid to speak his feelings, so she encourages him gently while maintaining his cover that the question is about Francesca's prospects. So much is communicated without saying anything, and it captivates me every time I see it.

You are the only reactor who comment on the nod he does before he gets out the carriage. It was such a great acting choice by Luke bc you can literally see Colin decide in that moment that she is it for him and he is going to marry her. He won’t wait another second.

I SO agree that the carriage scene is much better, passionate and beautiful in the show compared to the book. It is beyond the physical intimacy, it is sooo full of emotion, of joy and the fulfillment of long denied (on Colin’s part) and long hoped for (by Pen) feelings.

I just love your breakdown of each character. There were things I didn’t even notice (binged it 4 times), but will re-watch it and catch those things you’ve mentioned!

Debling would be perfect for Eloise. He's gone all the time, and she would be free to do whatever she wants. He wants a woman who has her own passions and interests, who doesn't mind bucking societal expectations, just like he does. They really would be a good match.

Love your breakdown of the episode, but that carriage scene is sooooo much more than the "fingering" many focus on. It is some of the best acting in Bridgerton, the small nuances b/w them, the sincere looks, and the way they communicate w/ no talking. Such attention to detail. I have also been impressed w/ Violet this season, she is the most astute actresses and her slight facial expressions say it all....thank you. Every time I looked at your reactions, I swear I mirrored them.

I love when intelligent people make videos reacting to shows i like. Thank you, great commentary.

I love your reactions, your theories about some scenes,the little details you give us ( for example, in episode 3, I hadn't realized Violet was watching Colin all the time after he asked her that question and it was you who made me notice it and I was absolutely thrilled). I also appreciate very much how emotional you feel towards the characters, when you said you were broken when Anthony cried ( I was broken too and I also cried with him...). I just love your videos, keep up your good work! 🙃🙃👍👍

I really wanted him to know she was lw before he proposed but the one thing that makes me feel better about it is that Nicola says this is the moment they truly see eachother, so i think even though he doesnt know her secret he does know her.

I really liked Lord Debling a lot. If she could not marry for love he was a good choice.

I love the book ive listen to it multiple times. The show is even better. Nicola and Luke are doing an amazing job! My favorite season ❤❤

The comment under that Colin's finger video is funnier. It said "It's muscle memory" or smth like that. I laugh for hours literally.

Oh I love the humor in this season❤❤❤❤

What's wrong with that "fine"?
