Things I Thought During Poldark, Episode 5

in Poldark on 10/31/16 by Carrie-Jo 3 Comments

I don’t know what to do with Ross this season. There are the moments I still adore his character–all the moments in the show when he’s kind to his wife. Then there all the other moments. The ones where he’s doing whatever the heck he wants and ignoring his wife. And the ones with Elizabeth. During those moments, I’m really starting to hate the guy.

What do you think of him this season?

There is a part of me that wants to feel badly for the recently-widowed Elizabeth. But then she says things like this:

To her son! I will admit that she might have a slightly legitimate concern about her face: I was a little horrified when I saw some pictures of myself recently and realized that smiles lines are probably coming for me sooner rather than later. And since I’d rather spend money going to Cornwall than on Botox, I’m going to get wrinkles. But I wouldn’t stop smiling because of it or discuss the natural aging process as a negative to my seven-year-old daughter! Or, if I had a son, perpetuate the idea that a woman’s only value is her beauty.

Ok, is it just me, or does this seem to have a double meaning? With the second meaning that he’s possibly sorry that he’s married to Demelza??? Again, I want to slap this guy.

All right, everyone, let’s take some bets on this next one:

When do you think George is going to propose? The only thing I can’t figure out is if he’s going to propose marriage or to take Elizabeth as his mistress. Either way, yuck. Can you imagine sleeping with him? *cringes*

Uh, Demelza, why didn’t you swing it? AT HIS HEAD? Because you’re right, all the way around. Smuggling is going to end badly, and Ross is NOT actually asking for your opinion.

Poor Demelza!

Yeah…no. Letters are not satisfying. Kissing is better. Marriage (which includes sex whenever you want it!) would be best.

This is one of my fantasies, people. Riding horseback on a beach. I’m not a skilled enough equestrienne to be set loose like that, but whatever. Details. Dwight and Caroline, for the win!

All right, I like you again, Ross. For now.

So what did you think? How long can Ross stay on the straight and narrow? Until the next episode? Forever? Are you as conflicted about him as I am? I want to know!
