LIE TO ME- 1x01 "Pilot" premiered 15 years ago today (January 21, 2009)

"Emotion looks the same whether you're a suburban housewife or a suicide bomber. The truth is written on all our faces."

you guys need to watch 2009 show Lie to Me so that there’s more fanfics about it. This show has no fandom and it’s absolutely tragic

[gallifreyanfrog]

Disney+ recently added Lie to Me* so I rewatched it all over again and oh my God the feelings it brought back !!!

I was obsessed with this show back in the days when I was 14, had a big crush on Tim Roth and was shipping Callian so hard !

Broke my heart when it suddendly ended and watching the finale again made me so sad once more, that show truly deserved a better (and actually just proper) ending and I'm not okay knowing that Cal and Gillian didn't get their happy ending :(

Hearing Cal tell Gill “I always have more trouble reading you than anyone else” at the end of an episode all about how he struggles to read someone when he’s distracted by attraction… I am losing it

I mean what even is this mess (affectionate)?

[imlovelace]

lately, i've been watching house and i can't help but think about how well greg house and cal lightman would get along

[raidermomma]

The lack of Lie to Me fanfics is disturbing. Nobody looked at Tim Roth as a lie detection expert and thought "Challenge fucking accepted"?

LIGHTMAN, FOSTER, ROMEO’S SIS AND CAL’S DAUGHTER

This is a smaller list I've whittled down from a larger list from @creativepromptsforwriting. (Original link for the full list)

I liked all the ideas, but thinking of Slibbs and Callian, I liked these the best:

"You're all I ever wanted. I'm sorry I can't say it sober."

"I can't wait for the room to stop spinning, so I can focus on your face again."

"I would love to hear those words in any other place than this bathroom, holding your hair back."

"This is not a dream, I think. In my dreams we're usually kissing."

"Can you keep a secret? I am madly in love with you. But psshh."

"I fell in love with you." "No, you fell down the stairs. You should really learn to hold your liquor."

I'm leaning towards #1, 3 and 5 for Callian (#1 & 3 is Cal to Gillian, #5 is Gillian to Cal). #2, 4 and 6 are Slibbs. All Jack to Gibbs. And #5 would work with Jack to Gibbs, too.

What do you think? Preferences? Different pairing to the quote? It's not like I have to use the exact wording, so if you think with some modification it might fit someone else, who would that be?

i'm so obsessed with cal and gillian, it’s truly concerning

like so so so so obsessed & lovey dovey about them, i might just write an essay explaining why they’re an immaculate ship

For a moment I was so caught up in the joy of rewatching Lie to Me that I forgot I live in a world where it was cancelled after three seasons (jk I never forgot and I'll never forgive)
