I'm In The Mood For Love...

Aug 12, 2010 21:50

I absolutely cannot stop myself for one moment longer. I MUST do the 30 Days of Shipping meme...

Here’s Days 1-6, to catch up with my *other* two 30 Days meme’s.

And after this, I think I really want to do the 30 Days of Reading and 30 Days of Writing.

And then, I will be 140 years old.

gakked from empressearwig:

I think that this will surprise no one...

BILL & SOOKIE (TRUE BLOOD)

Now, there’s 470000 things I love about that scene. The very tender way he kisses the bruises on her face. Her utter shock and joy (if you don’t know, she honestly thought he was dead, or ‘dusted’, rather right before this). But what I love most is how she says she needs to feel human- I don’t know how to explain it, but she is able to love him so much, because she loves herself? Do you know what I mean?

JAGGER & KAREN (GENERAL HOSPITAL)

I don’t know that I would love them so very much now, but they were kind of everything I wanted when I was ten. And they certainly followed the blueprint of a couple I will Always fall for (bad boy/good girl). And LOL, I kind of love that this is someone choosing another guy over Jason.

Or, if not now, November sweeps...

ETHAN & KRISTINA (GENERAL HOSPITAL)

Seriously. Why do they even bother with writing a ‘love interest’ for Kristina when it is clear they are just waiting averylittlebit for her to ‘grow up’.

Now, I am going to be making a concerted effort to not have any repeats on this list. And while this couple is not my favorite of all time (though I did love them like crazy), I’m picking them more for their very *unique* chemistry...

ELIZABETH & RIC (GENERAL HOSPITAL)

Gosh, isn’t this scene *ridiculous*? GH just doesn’t do anything this...subtle, this quiet, wistfulness. It’s amazing, married to other people, this reaching out towards each other. Becky Herbst was never better (and she looks like a teenager here, no?) And Rick Hearst gave in spades and spades and GH wouldn’t know a good thing if it jumped up and bit it in the ass.

Gosh, there’s a lot of GH on this? Well, there were a lot of couples...

COURTNEY & JASON (GENERAL HOSPITAL)

Journey. UGH. An exercise in Anti-Chemistry, if there ever was one. Alicia Leigh Willis managed to suck the life out of anyone she was paired with (except for Billy Warlock, but she’s not getting any credit for that one) and Steve Burton is definitely a one-trick pony (it’s called Kimberly McCullough).

Once again, in keeping with trying not to repeat any couples, I will not be using the same couple I used for this category in the 30 Days of TV meme (why am I taking this so seriously, like anyone’s keeping track). *THIS INDIVIDUAL KISS* WAS AMAZING AND I CAN’T FIND THE DAMN CLIP ON YOUTUBE. (Doesn’t youtube know it’s supposed to have, like, every clip ever?) Especially infuriating because I’ve seen it before, not too long ago. And I could put something else in its place, except this is the winner *of my heart*, and I am overly dramatic!

GRIFFIN & JULIA (PARTY OF FIVE)

The dialogue is:

G: "I didn't know if you'd want to hear from me or not."
J: "How can you say that? I mean...how can you even think that?"
G: "I just do....You know what? You know, you probably shouldn't write me, 'cos, uh....'Cos I probably won't write back. You kinda, you kinda need to know that. Just...just forget about me, okay, Julia?"
G: "Stop it, Griffin, don't-"
G: "Look at you. And look at me....I don't know. Sometimes, I still can't believe that you were mine. Even for a little while. I can't- I gotta go....Oh yeah. I love you. Okay?"
J: "Okay."

You just don’t get earnestness like that any more. I really wish I could show it to you guys. If you can find the clip, please let me know!
