The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I mean, it's now canon that if Peter has (fake) sex with someone else, Elizabeth wants to watch.

She wants to direct! Choreograph?

Make suggestions!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
She'd cater it. And it would be perfect.

I loved that she was drinking champagne. I love Peter and Elizabeth as a couple. One of my favorite moments on the show was the ep where he had to chase a woman, and he was fumbling through telling her about it and she just patted his hand and said "oh honey, you have no game, I'm not worried"

Their relationship is so fun to watch. Happy couples don't have to be boring!

So I finally watched the first two episodes of Copper last night, with some judicious fast-forwarding. The ending was rather unexpected! That is not how I expected that issue to play out.
I'm sufficiently intrigued to watch some more, but I would really like to see some women who are not whores or ladies. It's all a bit too explicit a statement of the madonna/whore dichotomy. Even with (especially with!) the child exploitation angle.
And I don't know about you all, but I would fully expect Annie to be unable to relate to Corcoran as a father figure. She's spent the last couple of years dealing with all adult men as potential rapists/predators, and I should think she's going to have a hard time unlearning those protective behaviors. So having Corcoran basically adopt her is just a bit skeevy, even if his intentions are entirely altruistic.
Anyway. I also wouldn't mind a bit less sepia in the cinematography: they did have bright colors back then, you know!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Does the doctor's wife not appear in the first episode?
I know people whitefont in case other people aren't up to date, but I find I can't reliably tell what whitefont is for things that already happened (and are okay to read) versus what is actually a spoiler, and I'm more likely to get spoilt, not less, since whitefonted spoilers are tolerated.
Can we agree that if you come into the thread you're accepting that blackfont is up to what's currently airing? That way past and future are neatly separated.
Folks are gonna get Copper plot details in here anyway.

You're right, she does. But she's the only woman in an ordinary situation that we see.
I'd forgotten the spoiler rules, actually.
