In my tradition of liking unpopular couples, man, I really enjoyed Marbecca. Yes I can see the point that maybe they were being fairly awful people in their storyline, but it was just sooooooooooooooooooooooooo shamelessly soapy. 

I mean, the majority of all stories on their home show is about selfish people putting their love first in the end. It was like one of those times (in a time before that was more frequent) that it really felt like the lesbian couple was treated exactly the same way as everybody else. 

They were just as selfish and ridiculous and bombastic as everything else on that show, with montages, grand gestures and running off at your wedding. Yes, even the Carla storylines (which were also very good) never felt quite like this. For one, a lot of Carla storylines still had lot of guy presence (Lars....) and to me there often was still an underlying feeling that Carla still had to be treated special. No she wasn’t as saintly as the US soaps tended to do their soap characters at that time, but that they had a special need to make Carla above average cool and interesting. Meanwhile Rebecca and Marlene were just being normal shameless soap characters. And that’s why I liked them. (one of my favorite moments? Marlene admitting to the press, yeah, I totally banged my fiance’s sister and I don’t regret it one bit, simply because it was so left field. LOVED it. followed tightly by Rebecca’s angsty running montage) Yes there was still some elements of coming out drama, but imo that was totally overshadowing by all the crazy that was going on. 

And yes, I’m just deleting everything from history from after they got together (for some reason the point where I draw the line is where Rebecca and her brother have this big argument in front the the castle, I don’t remember whether she smashes his car or he smashes hers, but again, it’s big and mean and I love it and nothing every happened after that, no sir, nothing at all). 

So, while it was going on, yes, I loved it. It was just insane soapy ridiculous fun (and absolutely nothing happened ever after they got together).
