Thinking she has lost any chance to escape this place, these people, she throws all caution to the wind and BRAVELY asks for what she wants from the man she loves, truly believing he will think it is nothing... At that point she had lost all her hope, she's got nothing to lose....
Idk why is so funny but Aaron thinking about Dynamite was everything while Calvin was just waiting for him just to get it... love it so much!! so damn cute!! Sorry
"Separate rooms? Why?" It's the premise of the show lol in regency era marriage is apparently a business transaction, lords and ladies marry off their children to other lords and ladies to strengthen their family ties/standing in society, that's why we have the story of the Bridgertons, the anomaly in the Ton lol with each sibling's love match/story.
Not just regency. It’s very common for years. Lucy and Ricky slept in separate beds in the same room on TV. Sleeping together is for marital relations. In Downton, there’s a Lord/Lady bedchamber. He keeps the bed made to pretend they sleep in separate rooms. But I think that’s to cater to a modern audience. It’s also in cases that the technical Lady of the house may not be married to the Lord. Maybe it’s Mom or another female relative.
Yeah, it's a wealth/status thing--only POORS have to SHARE a room! In the grandest households, the lord and lady of the house would have separate suites or even entire wings of rooms for their personal use, including entertaining guests and attending to matters of business in their own rooms. (Not the bed chambers, specifically, of course, but like their own studies or less formal sitting rooms.) The actual bedroom layouts were usually designed to have connected dressing rooms so the spouses could easily go back and forth at night or in the morning without the fuss of going through a hallway in a state of undress. Or lock the connecting doors between the rooms if things are Frosty between the couple.
The debate re how Colin cut his hand was fun. I really felt for Pen this episode her own mum basically told her it was ridiculous to think she would get married. Pen at the end felt she had no hope for a match and it was actually brave to ask for what she wants for a change (the kiss). Colin however seeemed quite affected by it
Lol people keep asking how he cut his hand. He picked up a piece of glass with his left hand and put it in his right hand, intending to gather all of it in that hand to throw away. But he was angry and must've held the first piece too tightly, hence the cut.
I thought the same and so I went and looked again, but that’s not what happened. He picked it up with his right hand (with Index finger and thumb) and then dropped it into his palm. That’s how got cut.
I LOVED this episode! The final scene is inspired by a similar one in Romancing Mr. Bridgerton but the writers for the series made it so much better. Colin “My Wife” Bridgerton has entered the chat! 💛
@prayingbanshee Ok I didn't read the books so I'm curious what this "Colin "My Wife" Bridgerton" is all about. Does he say it a lot in the books? Or.. Where did it come from?
@@Chadulthe’s basically Penelope’s number 1 defender in the book and very much down bad for her. I think he even announced in front of the whole ton that he “worships the ground she walks on” 😭
@@Chadult To my recollection, in the book with all the epilogues, released after the core 8, the siblings comment about how (annoyingly) Colin is forever saying "my wife"-this "my wife"-that.
It's called a piano forte as it means soft and loud. Prior to the invention of the piano they only had harpsichords which you needed to use a lever in order to change the volume. However the on the piano you could change the volume with the strike of your fingers. Over time the it just became Piano.
In my mind I’m pretty sure Colin put a piece of glass in his palm and it cut it. He is probably not used to picking things up. The servants usually do.
I believe the pianoforte was called as such because prior to this era (the Baroque period) there was the harpsichord. A harpsichord's strings are plucked, versus a piano's strings are struck by hammers. Pianoforte is the Italian term for soft-loud in music, and described the dynamic range a person could create depending on how light or heavy they pressed the keys. Harpsichords didn't have this capability. :)
Great ep2 reaction!…The post discussion left much to be desired, as it’s what I most look forward to esp when you go in depth w/some seriousness. You all missed the significance/turning point of Pen & Colin’s very beautifully shot & performed first kiss but I think they were distracted by Eric’s teeth kiss story😆.
Amazing reaction, as always. (Though I hope you realized how much the kiss affected Colin, you were kinda talking over it.) I think what happened when Colin cut his hand is that he was trying to gather the pieces of glass, but he was flustered and angry, probably a bit embarrassed too. So he's got a piece in his palm, and he closes his hand in distraction, and then we know what happens. Yes it's stupid, we all know it, and he does too. But people can do stupid things for any number of reasons, including when they're talking to someone they have some kind of feelings for, even if they're not aware of that just yet.
The cut on Colins palm happened because he picked the glass up like you pick up coins. You take it with two fingers and then you drop it in your palm, that’s how he did.
I don't think the large Estates were taxed very much at this time. If you watch Downtown Abby there is a season where the family is in financial trouble because of New taxes on the Estate.
Yea. Entailments like those that dominate in Jane Austen just prioritize a man inheriting estates, and making sure they are kept together. This is how we get Mr. Collins in “Pride and Prejudice” being next in line, despite being a cousin barely known to the family. Austen’s life herself changed dramatically after her Dad died. She and older sister Cassandra were unmarried. Women didn’t get enough. In “Sense and Sensibility,” a reasonable dowry might be a few thousand pounds for 1 woman. 4 women are suddenly expected to make do with £500 a year. They can’t even keep 1 horse. Mom in that story grew up on a big estate. Poor 19 year old Elena is charged with managing them all. “Sense.” The answer should be that their 1/2 brother could at least give them a better allowance, or even let them stay on the huge Norland estate, but his wife is the issue. Her family has plenty, and she pretends it’ll bankrupt them. Land is incredibly valuable at this point. It doesn’t start changing really until the industrial revolution in about 30-40 years. Austen’s prime is within the Georgian era, (King George) from about 1795-1817. She unfortunately dies young at 41 from Addison’s disease. Industry starts changing around 1830 if I’m not mistaken. George’s brother William takes over for 7 years, then his niece, Victoria is crowned in 1837. She barely avoids a regency as they tried to manipulate when she “came of age.”
I made this comment in my first year of college, now I am in my last year. I have an exam in a few hours, but I'm looking at four bearded men watching Bridgerton.
1:49 “pineapple!” “What show are we watching?” Was that a nod to Psych? Holding out hope that one day we’ll get a reaction so Eric can watch it (I mean, it finally made it onto a poll)!!
Meine Lieben, Ihr seit einfach wunderbar. Eure Kommentare sind genau auf den Punkt. Ich mag es so sehr, Danke das ich durch Euch so wunderbare Momente haben darf. Ich muss ständig lächeln und auch laut lachen. Danke schööööön ❤❤❤
Lol people fault eloise for inadvertently spreading gossip but conveniently forget that penelope does exactly that for a profit 😂 .... And i love the irony that in the end it was cressida and not penelope that kept a secret that was shared to them by eloise 😅
Estates make their money mainly by renting out farms and businesses. Some also took a slice of profits. Some ran their own farms etc but the wages would be small. Likewise estates rented out homes and cottages, so wages paid out would be returned via rents for homes etc. Plus the family would normally have money already, often from investments in large businesses or endeavours across the empire.
Eric, I want you to know that I'm banged teeth with several people in my kissing "career". Don't listen to the boys - first kisses are often awkward and it happens. Sometimes happens even during second and third kisses 😅 Btw, Nicola (Pen) was told by the director that she didn't kiss awkwardly enough and looked like she had experience. So you are right on the money there ;)
Penelope being Lady Whistledown is going to blow up spectacularly in her face and my guess it's going to start with a downward spiral where she can't keep her lies straight. Like in episode 1 with writing her sheet about Colin in anger. Hot Take but the couple adjusting to life in the ton is far more interesting to me than Colin and Penelope.
You gotta watch queen charlotte- its got some excellent interactions (and casting) for the queen, lady danbury, and mama bridgerton that will help with the next few episodes
Any chance u guys could release all the 3 parts of x men 97 on Thursday I’ve been subbed in this for nearly a year longer w TH-cam and I won’t be able to watch much of anything for a few months at start of June snd really want to see you guys reaction to it would really appreciate it and stay a member even while I can’t watch

@@AnxietyRatthey don’t really take recommendations from either of those. They use input from the recommendations section of the website to determine what populates the polls.
@@joshwilliams5860 ah, I haven't watched their channel in a good while... But I definitely remember them mentioning that they've been recommended stuff off of patreon a COUPLE of different times prior to them making their own website.

So what do you think of the low stakes? Twitter discourse was wild. so what are your opinions on the Women in this time, always worried about marriage and does it matter?
What does she know about writing? She’s Lady Whistledown ffs! Just messing with you all. Love your reactions. Sorry, just not feeling it for the Colin character. In the book, yes, the show, not so much. Hard to beat the male lead in season 1. I’m more attracted to the women this season, and I’m a straight woman.

Mannnn. If you’re laughing at my girl Nicola in this, I might need you guys to react to derry girls or big mood.
YESSSS
I would love to see them react to derry girls! they'd definitely enjoy it
Derry girls!
@@jennb3112 I think so too but I just finished big mood and holy shit…. It’s fantastic

Colin cant cut his fingers they have plot armor lol 😆 😂
OMG 😆😅🤣
💀😏
😂😂😂
LMAO
*man leaving bed with two gorgeous naked women in it*
Calvin: They EACH had a blanket...
Gotta love a man who makes the important observations ❤
A man of culture
Idk why is so funny but Aaron thinking about Dynamite was everything while Calvin was just waiting for him just to get it... love it so much!! so damn cute!! Sorry
It’s soooo refreshing to watch men excited and smiling over a romance/period drama. Keep it up!
“Ready for… SEX!” I burst out laughing.
Eric's comments are always amazing 😂 "It's so charged!!!" Yessss that Polin chemistry is smth else can't wait for chapter 4
"SNIFF! SNIFF! SNIFF!" was so funny lol
That was my inner monologue my first time watching that scene as well, though... They just very much externalized that inner monologue, I guess lmaooo
Eric, you really know how to kill a moment, after the best first kiss and he starts talking about clicking teeth lol

House of Cards showed the President and First Lady with two bed chambers too so historically it was set up that way even in The White House.

Look how far it goes with The Tudors and Vikings; and the movie The Duchess. They’re practically in different parts of the house. 😂
The way Eric eats the drama up kills me lmao I love this channel.
Aaron recognizing "Dynamite"💜💜💜
I love the minute he took to place the tune lmao that's me watching bridgerton too
I've been waiting for this couple for a long time and they delivered. Their chemistry is chef's kiss. The kiss was so beautiful.
The debate re how Colin cut his hand was fun.
I really felt for Pen this episode her own mum basically told her it was ridiculous to think she would get married.

It took Aaron 15 seconds (I counted) to realize that it was Dynamite, hahaha
15:53 was my favourite moment of the reaction, that exchange made me so happy :)
Speaking of introducing modern medicine to the past, I’m renewing my petition to grant Outlander a spot in your schedule.
YES.
Please please please do Outlander.
So much grape, tho
I second this. Outlander is 🤌🏻🤌🏻

First kiss perfection❤
no teeth clicking together
This whole reaction and discussion was hilarious
I love how invested you guys are! Very fun to watch your reactions.
26:37 You must be thinking of Hercules (1997), when Phil interrupts Hercules and Meg's date.
The cut on Colins palm happened because he picked the glass up like you pick up coins. You take it with two fingers and then you drop it in your palm, that’s how he did.
Now to wait for the next one 😆 They were so tense during the first kiss, I wonder how they will react to the next scene 🤭
I love your frivolous post-discussion talk, especially for _this_ half season. So funny! Keep it up, guys!!🤣

They had a window tax. You were taxed on each window. Also you were taxed for owning horses and dogs were taxed and for every male servant you had.
Does the charcoal comment mean they've recorded Queen Charlotte reactions? 😊
pretty sure they mentioned last episode that they did
he visto casi todas las reacciones de la temporada y estos chicos son mis favorito; los vere para la prox temporada tambien

Pianoforte is what a piano was called before they shortened it to piano. Edit: Okay, you got there.
Piano means quiet. Forte means loud. A pianoforte can be played quietly AND loudly.
Conversely, a harpsichord only has one volume setting.
