Colin came back with this rake persona this season because he spent the first two seasons being either taken advantage of or mocked for his sweet, romantic, enthusiastic nature. So he's put on armor, and is "trying to feel less, trying to be the man society expects" in his own words. If you're interested, Sammy Bates did an amazing character analysis of Colin (and one of the Polin relationship) on her channel. It's really well done and eye-opening. A lot of people miss the more subtle nuances of his characterization, and it's resulted in some people really misunderstanding Colin and his motivations this season. I really appreciate your nuanced take on the situation between Penelope and Colin. A lot of people are quick to hate him for his comment at the end of season 2. I get being upset at it, especially since it hurt Penelope so much, but she was never open about her feelings for him, and he wasn't saying it to hurt her. One offhand comment shouldn't be enough to negate their entire friendship or ruin his character in our eyes. Plus, as soon as it was brought to his attention, he immediately owned up to it, apologized, and sought to make amends. What really bugs me is that so many of the people who hate him for that comment are the same people defending Penelope for doing essentially the same thing to him by calling him out in front of their entire society as Lady Whistledown. And then calling him a baby when he doesn't just get over it immediately. Anyway, I digress... all that to say, I really appreciate your ability to see both sides!

Yay I luv this season. I luv all the seasons every season is different witch I enjoy ❤❤❤

Season 3: Here we go. This is a very polarizing season, and your theories are interesting. I am curious to see how you feel about this season by the end. This isn't my favorite season at all. There are some interesting choices this season, but I know I will enjoy your reactions. One thing I will say is that the only way Benedict could get Anthony's title is if Anthony died and he and Kate have no sons at the time of his death. All Benedict can do is look after things in Anthony's absence, but the title is always his.

Yea so far, I'm missing the intensity that I felt last season. I already finished 1-4. But hopefully it'll pick up in the second half. One person I'm changing my views on is Ms. Cressida.

It's definitely my favorite so far, but it's definitely a polarizing season.

I'm one of the people who absolutely loves this season. In fact, it's my favorite so far. I'd be curious to know the reasons it fell flat for you, if you're willing to share
