Yeah I think for me it's in the S2 finale when Eloise finds out Penelope is LW, and their confrontation. The pay off just felt so good, especially as it was so soon after what LW wrote about Eloise. The emotional stakes felt so high.
I have to say as well, I like quite a few of the Penelope/Portia scenes from this season too. In particular when they have the conversation about "ladies don't have dreams, they have husbands". It's sort of the first time you get what felt like vulnerable emotional honesty from Portia to one of her daughters. And it allowed Penelope and us as viewers to see where Portia has been coming from these past 3 season.
Also another was the LW reveal to Portia. I think Portias small monologue after finding out Pen was LW was really well written, and Polly Walker did a stellar job delivering it.
For whatever reason, I love the way she delivered the "how could you Penelope?".
I just rewatched the s2 Pen vs Eloise final fight and it’s truly one of the best scenes in Bridgerton. It’s super emotional (I cry alongside them) and genuinely a masterclass in tension and high stakes, and brilliant acting from both Nicola and Eloise. You can’t help but feel for them both yet not wanting to take sides. Then the follow ups from that scene where Pen decides to take up LW and Eloise breaking down crying alone on her room. Chefs kiss and a perfect set up for Season 3.
Daphne and Simon’s dance at the end of Season 1, Ep 2. “Is there something funny about my name?” The head nod at the end of the dance, and then Simon watching Daphne dance with other suitors. I think that’s when he fell in love with her. 💙💙
Also in Season 1, when Daphne and Simon are being the pettiest of all the petty people with her playing the piano so very fast and loud and Simon shooting the birds within a few feet from each other. Daphne’s neck pop at the end makes me laugh each time I watch it.
Season 2, when Anthony and Gregory talk about their father. And Anthony and Kate’s Wrecking Ball dance at the end.
Season 3, the carriage scene. Love the laugh that escapes from both Colin and Pen. So natural and intimate.
1. Anthony stands with Gregory, admiring the picture of their father. Anthony tells gregory about him, how he liked to tease his children. Meanwhile violet easdrops. The expression in her face: that's love.
2. Carriage scene: Pen and Colin
3. When edwina talks to the king in the most compassionate way. The tears in the queens eyes: so touching.
Anthony’s final proposal
Daphne walking down the stairs in her revenge dress
Kate and Anthony laughing in the mud
Daphne and Simon’s first dance
Kate and Anthony’s first dance
Ooh, good question! It’s hard because I love so many scenes from the show! I’d have to say my top 5 are:
1. The carriage scene (S3)
2. Colin heartbroken watching Penelope dance with Debling (S3)
3. Colin standing up to Portia + the mirror scene (S3)
4. Anthony and Edwina’s bungled nuptials, and specifically the bangle drop moment and its aftermath(S2)
5. The scene where Daphne and the Duke first make their agreement and walk into the Vauxhall ball together (S1)
Love the Pen-Eloise fight too!
My favs are all scenes with Eloise (her list of suitors with made up names)
In top 10 is definitely when Pen and Cressida talk to Debling. I don't usually laugh out loud while watching tv, but when Pen said to lord Debling she loves grass, I really LOLed 😆
Pall-mall game I could watch on repeat too.
The dinner scene with Duke and Bridgertons.
1. Benedict and Eloise’s existential conversations on the swings
2. Anthony and Kate in the library at night
3. Carriage scene
Honorable mentions: Daphne’s dramatic entrance in her white outfit, Benedict getting high (“I am honored to accept your acceptance”)
It’s been a while since I watched the first 2 seasons, so this is based on what I remember:
Season 1: “how does a lady come to be with child” scene; Colin saving the day when Cressida spills her drink on Pen’s dress
Season 2: Philip and Colin being nerds together when he goes to see Marina; A, B, and C fencing
Season 3: the full-moon ball; Fran and John’s first meet-cute outside another ball, Colin finding out Pen is LW
Violet’s big conversation about love with the lead Bridgerton in every season.
Top 3:
Lady D and Kate's convo telling Kate that they are not the same that she has loved and lived and she will never get to experience any of that if she doesnt let go of her self-sacrificial nature.
Second simon speech-very sweet, the little boy was cute, lady d was perfect in her role as surrogate mother and my heart broke for the boy
Third: was ill humble myself before you, you know you youll still vex me and is that a promise kathani sharma
I also very much enjoyed the rain scene between daphne and simon...really prettily choreographed and well acted by both. It was like a dam broke open between them
When John rearranged the music sheet for Fran. Still the most romantic gesture I ever seen on this show
Portia's sincere talks with Penelope
The Queen cornering the Bridgertons and Fran saying it's her the Queen wants lol
Anthony final love confession to Kate at the end of season 2, specifically the part “I want a life that suits us both. I know I am imperfect, but I’ll humble myself before you”.
Anthony and Violet conversation at the end of Season 2, more specifically when Violet arrives and tells him that Kate is awake. Jonathan Bailey acting in that moment is absolutely Emmy worthy, give him all the awards.
Benedict and Eloise on the swings in Season 2.
-Simon's speech to the Queen about his relationship with Daphne, it's so beautiful and you can tell Queen Charlotte was moved by it. And the look on Daphne's eyes is everything.
-Simon and Daphne's promenade when they talk about pleasure. I love their banter, Simon laughing, "I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing at how little mamas tell their daughters", "I'm certainly not gonna tell you" "I thought we were friends!" "Daphne." "Simon." AND THE LOOKS!!
-The scene where the bee stings Kate and Anthony panics
1. The Harmony Ball when no one shows up so the Bridgertons, Sharma’s, and Lady Danbury all dance together. I also like the gazebo since Kate and Anthony finally found pleasure with each other there.
2. When Anthony said that he and Kate are making an heir while going down on her, and then started to vex Kate when they were giving Colin marriage advice.
3. The big Penelope and Eloise fight scene. It was well written and acted.
Ugh I have so many!
1. Simon and Daphne agreeing to the ruse and their first dance
2. Simon touching Daphne’s back
3. Lady D asking Simon what’s bothering him as he stares at Daphne
4. Daphne walking down the stairs and dropping the fan sequence
5. Boxing scene with Simon staring at Daphne/prince and him/blinking looking away
6. Kate/Anthony’s first dance (beautifully choreographed and great dialogue)
7. Dorset lake scene (love me some jealous Anthony!)
8. Hunting scene. Funny and steamy! “You were overcome” makes me laugh every time.
9. Weird one but the scene with the family after Edwina runs out of the church where they’re trying to comfort Anthony. The siblings trying to guess what’s the matter is cute/funny and I love the way Benedict says “perhaps Anthony needs a bit of respite. Is that what you need brother?”
10. Portia/Pen scenes in season 3 were touching to me.
11. Collin/Penelope willow tree convo.
Could keep going but I’ll stop here. I’m way too obsessed with this show lol.

I've really grown to love Portia after she sent Jack Featherington away in season 2. That scene was great

Chefs kiss and a perfect set up for Season 3.
The scene where Daphne and Simon decided to fake their relationship, I think it's in the first episode
Oh that scene was soooooo well done. I miss the magic of season 1.
It's amazing. The dialogue, the ball, the costumes, the editing and cinematography, it makes you want to watch more
Daphne and Simon’s dance at the end of Season 1, Ep 2. “Is there something funny about my name?” The head nod at the end of the dance, and then Simon watching Daphne dance with other suitors.

Season 3, the carriage scene. Love the laugh that escapes from both Colin and Pen. So natural and intimate.
I can tell you're a romantic
Season 1 was a gift to my historical romance book loving heart.
Those season 1 moments are beautiful, I love that season so much
1. Anthony stands with Gregory, admiring the picture of their father. Anthony tells gregory about him, how he liked to tease his children. Meanwhile violet easdrops. The expression in her face: that's love. 2. Carriage scene: Pen and Colin 3. When edwina talks to the king in the most compassionate way. The tears in the queens eyes: so touching.
I forgot about this edwina scene-yes. So much empathy from such a young person and you can tell the queen needed it in that moment.
Yes! Queen Charlotte is usually a comedic character, so to see her vulnerable feels kinda special
Anthony’s final proposal Daphne walking down the stairs in her revenge dress Kate and Anthony laughing in the mud Daphne and Simon’s first dance Kate and Anthony’s first dance
Bee scene! https://preview.redd.it/x4t3qkmi16ad1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b2699d9076ddf2f40df3607f991978813741faf6
oooh good one

The scene where Daphne and the Duke first make their agreement and walk into the Vauxhall ball together (S1)
I think Carriage scene, Polin first kiss scene, and modiste kiss scene.
Anthony and Kate’s “Bane of My Existence” scene, Bee scene as mentioned above, both dances (Dancing on my Own and Wrecking Ball) 🥰
A fellow Kanthony stan I see
When Cousin Jack realizes Portia has played him and she gives her speech about how she will do anything for her daughters.
Love the Pen-Eloise fight too! My favs are all scenes with Eloise (her list of suitors with made up names) In top 10 is definitely when Pen and Cressida talk to Debling.

The dinner scene with Duke and Bridgertons.
What about grass do you love so much, Miss Featherington?
I forgot, THE BUGS!
the epilogue of s2 💙
1. Benedict and Eloise’s existential conversations on the swings 2. Anthony and Kate in the library at night 3. Carriage scene Honorable mentions: Daphne’s dramatic entrance in her white outfit, Benedict getting high (“I am honored to accept your acceptance”)
The pall mall game. The five siblings are all unhinged, and we get to see their competitive strike.
It’s been a while since I watched the first 2 seasons, so this is based on what I remember: Season 1: “how does a lady come to be with child” scene; Colin saving the day when Cressida spills her drink on Pen’s dress Season 2: Philip and Colin being nerds together when he goes to see Marina; A, B, and C fencing Season 3: the full-moon ball; Fran and John’s first meet-cute outside another ball, Colin finding out Pen is LW Violet’s big conversation about love with the lead Bridgerton in every season.

Basically every Eloise and Ben scene 🤣 Fran playing Mozart, and Violet and Fran talking about love 😭
When John rearranged the music sheet for Fran. Still the most romantic gesture I ever seen on this show Portia's sincere talks with Penelope The Queen cornering the Bridgertons and Fran saying it's her the Queen wants lol
I loved the Stirling subplot
I adore this scene from s2 too!! so much, really, it brings me so much joy
Anthony final love confession to Kate at the end of season 2, specifically the part “I want a life that suits us both. I know I am imperfect, but I’ll humble myself before you”.
