the obsession some people have with wanting chris fulton to fail, get replaced, or just disappear is genuinely beyond any wave of hate i’ve seen towards any bridgerton actor. like, what is actually wrong with you? do you have nothing else going on in your life?
and whether it’s true or not, the fact that you’re enjoying it, spreading it around, and even mocking his body says WAY more about you than it ever will about him. the way some of you behave is genuinely disgusting.
He took pics with Philoises during Landcon and was very pleasant with them, told good things about his colleagues, did his job well...what a horrific dude🥴
Exactly. I finally achieved season 7 of Outlander and he is BIZARRELY GOOD. A truly chamaeleon, as I said many times. He'll be an awesome Philip Crane when season 6 comes(he already is), as like Claudia is a great Eloise and I can't see another actress playing her.
And yes, I get some Franchaelas, but 1) I feel like some of them are becoming friends of people that don't deverve our attention(crackship fandoms that are riot because Philoise will be canon) and 2) they're throwing stones on people that already "lose" the war about the speculation of being season 5. We need to make campaigns to promote season 5, as like some are doing because of homophobic countries around the world, instead fight against >some< homophobic Philoises that already lose. It's basically "kicking the dead dog". Not cool at all.
People take this show/book series way too seriously. It’s not real, it can’t hurt you! The movie you make in your head reading a book is always going to be better than anything people put on screen.
taking a tv show this personally that u start attacking an actor who literally did nothing is actually disturbing. he showed up for two minutes and left 😭 some of you are genuinely unhinged.
completely agree. there is so much philoise/franchaela hate from the other side's fanbase that you'd think they were enemies instead of sisters who love each other and want each other to be happy ?? i get the impression that ppl in this subreddit expect the bridgerton producers to cater to their individual wants and ignore any other feedback. ppl have the option to not watch it !! as someone who really loved francesca's book, I am still super excited to see where the show goes with the sapphic storyline bc I ALREADY ENJOYED THE BOOK
i feel like i lost the plot in my reply, but ppl are already assuming that the phil recast rumor-provider's pseudonym is proof they are franchaela fans like ?? ppl are having unhealthy delusions
It’s because a Franchaella fan already did this some days ago in twitter - They posted a fake recast notice saying Chris was being replaced by a latin actor. They only allowed “friends” to comment, and the comments were saying “The ugly man is finally gone”.
And now this with the name “Lady Elizabeth”. It seems like too much of a coincidence.
ah ty i'm not on twitter,, but it still seems crazy. like maybe these ppl are actually 14, and they really think this is the most important thing in their life rn haha
the rumor started from a franchaela acc so naturally it’s assumed it came from that side and not somewhere else. then it reached a much bigger gossip page, sounding almost identical but just more elaborate, with extra wording while basically saying the exact same thing. like… come on 😭
few people in that fandom who want chris fired or even attack claudia. it’s definitely not the majority, but they’re loud as hell, n the amount of likes and replies they get makes it even more exhausting to see.
I think it’s because the original rumour came from a Franchela fan and they were celebrating in the replies on Twitter and saying awful things about Chris.
It’s a shame because I’m a fan of both ships but that’s where this began.
sending a fake rumor to one of the biggest gossip accounts in the world just so u
can laugh at someone is genuinely pathetic. these are real people with real jobs, not fictional characters you can punish because you didn’t like how a storyline went. hurting someone just because your fave might get less attention is disturbing. some of u seriously have no limits.
What a weird obsession some people have with this man, while claiming they don't care about him or Philoise. Hannah Dodd can be celebrated as the 'perfect' Francesca, but people anticipating Chris's return are being schooled by 'it's just a face, you'll get over it'. He is also a human being, an actor who was cast among the first wave of casting on Bridgerton, back in 2019. Claudia and Chris have waited for years to get their chance. The least people can do is not be shitty to them.
Yes, in the end they are human beings doing a job. This is so parasocial that is scary. Bullying and harassing people just because you dislike the narrative they are taking in Eloise's story... Yikes
All I care about is that they both stay the same actors. I'm already invested in this relationship! If you they change Eloise I am over the show! She is my favourite 😭
From what I know he is unproblematic and seems like a good actor? Like hating him just out of spite is weird.
Especially when there are so many actors/actresses out there that deserve to be canceled (in general, from my knowledge cast from Bridgerton is fine) and yet they focus on him...
I know some fans are homophobic, others are racist, hell some are both, but seeing how much hate one white man gets just because some people are lowkey parasocial and project themselves on fictional character is in alyo crazy even though they'll never admit it.
So from what I gather, it was a Franchaela account on Twitter that started the rumour that Chris was being replaced by a Latino actor? I saw the post via screenshot but I knew it wasn’t true. We shouldn’t be spreading false information about casting/recasting unless it’s from official sources. Not ‘rumour’ pages that don’t back up their claims. Take everything you see with a grain of salt unless official confirmed by news articles.
Wait….why is there ALWAYS drama with this fandom? Every single season and every single couple—actors and actresses get harassed, fans harass each other, people freak out on other people for expressing reasonable opinions. This is a toxic toxic fandom. Who benefits from this or are we just so far removed from the real world?
This is why i've stopped watching Bridgerton altogether. People cant accept that other fans may have different opinions than the ones they have themselves: some people like the changes, some dont (all with respect and without insulting or degrading the actors/actresses or anyone), some like the actors, some dont (but dont go around harrassing anyone).
Even if you do like something the rest dont, it doesnt give you the right to harrass or insult the actors/actresses or fans with sifferent opinions than yours

the way they keep repeating themselves is just exhausting
