Bridgerton spoiler
Kanthony ->
This is just me ranting :')
I know we all expected Kanthony to have a subplot in s3. I did too, the way Jonny and Simone talked about staying till the end, their excitement in their very small press for s2 and future seasons. The way Simone didn't sign a contract for Sex Education new season. And how this show was a priority for Jonny while shooting both Fellow Travellers and Bridgerton. Fellow Travellers production had to work around his schedule for s3...
But this is Bridgerton production we're talking about. They used the diversity to gain more audience in poc. But they care very little for their poc actors. Why do you think Regé left? Why do you think Ruby instantly talked about her experience while filming Bridgerton right after she left? And there were so many fans called her out for overreacting or now that Regé is free he should come back so he can be humbled since he's not booked after Bridgerton
It might be weird as I am a hard-core Kathony shipper but I need Simone to get out of the show. She was a leading lady but she was a side character in her own season. People think she stole Edwina's man while it was never Edwina's season but Kate's. P*lin stans think she was just a love interest and not a leading lady that's why she didn't got that much promo. That's why she didn't get any back story because she was just Anthony's love interest. "It was Anthony's story not Kate's."
I've seen all of it in twitter. It reeks of misogyny and racism there.
So please don't get your hopes up. I knew we're only going to get them in the first episode and we'll be done with it and I was right. They don't care about Kate...
They had so many opportunities to make Kate part of a story as a viscountess and her experience with the title and not just Anthony's wife but as we were proven so many times in the past, Simone doesn't have any value to them. They used her (and Jonny) as a bait.
And I don't want to hear about how it's not their season. Benedict, Francesca, Violet and Eloise all have a plot in this season, they could've give one to Kate but they didn't. So no it's not just about p*lin... it's an assemble show after all, right?

Trying to convince myself - that it’s the post covid lack of planning and the fact that they’ve had 2 years since so they can push it more now and ya know Jonny had on going projects which made promos together difficult — but it’s fucking hard not to be bitter because while I am happy for all them Stans (like truly hip hip hooray to you all, this should be the fun norm for all promo), it’s still like WHAT THE FUCK? You sideline your S2 leads in THEIR OWN SEASON and then you don’t even do good promo for them together or on their own. You sent all the rest on press tours. The leads didn’t even have a photoshoot that was just them.
And people want to hit us with plausible — “keeping up the mystery of will they/won’t they” 😑 but unlikely scenarios - “maybe the actors weren’t keen”— that doesn’t track and you all know it. They were the romantic leads of a series. Promoting them would have been the smart idea for engagement. (And I want to say that truth is as truth is but given the whole Ariana thing, maybe people would have been dumb but given how Jonny handled that with the hilarious response and ya know the truth and the fact that they are playing characters should have shut most sane people up). And yes yes, they still achieved so much without it but THEY had to build SO MUCH of their own momentum and it’s fucked.
And yes yes, maybe the show’s promo team changed/ or the agenda for the promo team changed and in the wake of shows that did well still getting cancelled, they gotta continue to expand expand expand their promo in order to stay afloat. The way they did for the brand as a whole in season 2. BUT THEIR LEADS? Crickets.
Sad. I’m sad. It’s been 2 years. I should be over the disappointment. I’m not though.
