soap gay storylines = my #1 guilty pleasure

Jan 29, 2007 21:21

I've noticed the term "emo porn" being bandied around fandom recently. It's a slightly confusing phrase to me, considering my main fandom is emo bands and hey, when I read about Ryan Ross being gangbanged, that's TRUE emo porn. Knowwhat'msayin?

But anyway, I gather other people use "emo porn" in describing a type of fiction that hits your emotional buttons in a completely delicious way. Today's Hollyoaks was total emo porn. Oh, my god. The emo man pain. I just made wibbling sounds the entire way through.

Thanks to the magic of youtube, you can watch a handily edited Craig/John Paul compilation of Friday's and today's episodes. \o/ It includes pretty boys. And door-pinning.

On the subject of door-pinning (and, indeed, emo-tastic teenage gay characters), I just found out that on youtube you can watch the entirety of the Coronation Street Todd/Karl storyline from a couple of years ago. *dead* Bruno Langley is so very pretty.

Here, watch the part where Todd and Karl kiss for the first time (doubles as an unintentionally hilarious homage to Queer As Folk!).
