Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup


* EvilIsSexy: Caroline and Wickham are the characters the most frequently seen as sexy in the comments, even in rewatch when people are aware of their true nature. Although Wickham proves to be so evil that it's a turn off to many people, and the genuine NiceGuy Bing rivals him in attracting interest. Then again, Bing [[FemaleGaze doesn't]] [[ShirtlessScene strip on-screen]]...

** [[ShipperOnDeck Gigi's]] no nonsense approach to shipping made her nearly universally loved by the fandom, though some fans miss gentle, sweet and timid Miss Darcy of the book.

** Ricky Collins. Lizzie cannot stand him, but his pompous antics come off as rather funny and cute, since he has good intentions and is quite enthusiastic about Lizzie's work. Taken UpToEleven in the ''WebVideo/EmmaApproved'' revival, where he still has no social intelligence but his friendly eagerness is stronger than ever. He's massively popular among fans, thanks to his actor's dorky charisma.

* FlameWar: Episode 41's first fits of comments went very much near this. It deserves a special mention, as the fandom is usually polite and understanding, and the top comments in other videos often contain compromises, and, once, two people apologizing for getting too far in an argument and someone congratulating them.



* HateSink: George Wickham is meant to be as detestable and slimy as ever here, and is designed to make the viewer hate him as much as possible. If Website/YouTube comments are anything to go off of, this was a resounding success.

* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Under every video Caroline appears in, there will be voices of straight females wondering if they're really straight, as well as many comments boiling down to: "Ah, I know she's evil, but I cannot get over how pretty she is!".
* EvenTheGuysWantHim:
** Bing Lee according to the straight men who watch the videos.
** George Wickham got "even guys want him" treatment as well, but to a lesser extent. [[spoiler: Numerous comments from men watching the videos proclaimed him the quintessence of every BrainlessBeauty, JerkJock [[TheBully bully]] ever on this earth, which is a nice result when aware of the source material.]]
** Strangely averted with the very attractive Mr. Darcy, who apparently did not create such a reaction on men viewers, though he was just as praised as the others for his personality and physical appearance. [[FridgeLogic Then again, they may simply have decided not to mention it again, after being hit by it already twice]].


Added DiffLines:

* FanNickname:
** George Wickham, aka, Dickham. Of course, the people who created the nickname could hardly be called ''fans'' of Wickham.
** "Newsie" and "Darcybot" are both very frequently used as affectionate nicknames for Darcy in the comments. Fitz's comment about Darcy being an "agoraphobic lobster" is popular, as well.

** Darcy. Socially awkward, bowtie-wearing, intelligent, and slightly pompous, mixed with absolutely ''terrible'' attempts at flirting with Lizzie. Highlights include attempting to impress her with his speaker-setting-up-skills, and fake-texting when he sees her coming towards him. His portrayl in this series stuck a cord among millenial hipsters who adore his interests and awkwardness.

** Episode 15, "Lizzie Bennet is In Denial," is the show's first step into a larger world. It's not only the first episode ''without'' the main character on camera (and one of only three that does this overall), it also gives Jane and Charlotte a chance to draw real attention to the fact that she's an UnreliableNarrator. Plus, "It's super-important."

** Lizzie (Ashley Clements) and Charlotte (Julia Cho) were never considered bad actors but they both really shone in Episode 41.
** Creator/MaryKateWiles was always considered an awesome actress, but the [[spoiler: abuse storyline]] and the way she and [[spoiler: Wes Anderhold]] handled it gave them a new kind of credibility as actors and characters for the fandom and was praised countless times.
