#lorelai had this huge horrible thing happen

[panharmonium]

Man, these past few days...so many thoughts. About my life then, my life now. What I missed. Thoughts about what I'll never have. And what I want to have.

[lovezbrownies]

whoever sent that pop idol yandere is actually smart for that and I just had to say it

Alsoooo I’m mainly here to info dump on Lorelai’s brother!! ^^ We’ll call Lorelai’s brother James or Jamie since that’s the only actual name I can think of matching him. But keep in mind I’m horrible at naming so ehh idk. Anyways I envision him look wise to have blue hair like his dad Tom and also being rather tall. But in strength wise he’s pretty solid even if he’s on the skinny skeleton size. But if we’re going to be comparing him to jocks like Lauren and or military/police people like Gen & Grim then yeah no he will lose on a fight. Look wise he’s a tall average malnourished male like one you would see around in college campus bonus points if they’re studying something medicine/medical wise.

he’s also a huge mamas boy and also asks his mom on her opinion when it comes to gift and date ideas. NEVER Lorelai since he’s seen first hand how his sister is and how bad she is with dating. Especially considering how he once saw his sister come home all upset with a huge red slap mark on her cheek one day 😭 So he definitely knows not to ask his sister anything when it comes to romance.

There’s also a couple of reasons which explains why he isn’t a yandere or acts out on his jealousy or possessiveness. 1) he saw how unhinged his sister is when it came down to how Lorelai acts to the person of her affection. 2) he finds the whole thing to be very icky especially if the person he likes happens to be of the opposite gender. So he likely thinks he’s preying on his crush gender wise and incredibly so if they’re shorter than him. 3) he was once stalked by a person in his early years of highschool by a person he rejected and always and still does sometimes feel paranoid and goes to therapy cuz of that. 4) his awesome dad Tom told him and brought him up to be a very respectful person too bad Lorelai didn’t learn from Tom 😒

-🌪️

HELLO! IM SO SO SORRY THIS IS LIKE MEGA LATE BAS I WILL GET TO IT RN.

what if Jamie becomes the first non-yandere in the blog... MY BRAIN... its working overtime...

ANYWAYS LETS GET INTO IT. tall and malnourished... my favorite type of man... god i miss my wife sonic... (my wife is Viktor from Arcane.)

i feel like it could be a hit or miss with being a mamas boy, either a man can be such an annoying mamas boy where he will prefer his mother over anything and disagree with the entire world if she said so OR the best most respectful individual you'd ever meet. No inbetween.

Jamie would definitely be on the respectful side of the spectrum, citing our previous and current conversations regarding his behavior and personality! I like to think he consults his mom's opinion on general life stuff over his dad, but about his degree or jobs? straight to his dad! He would never abuse his family's reputation to gain a job, not like he has to. But if it ever gets too difficult to find a good job after uni? He's asking his dad to help him out.

And oh yeah, definitely after seeing all the shit Lorelai does to her darling while they constantly reject her makes him almost puke. He would never put his loved one through something so horrible like that, and would try his absolute best to be understanding and willing to listen to any issues his darling has with him.

But at the same time, I feel like a character cannot be a complete character without at least a flaw or two. Which leads me to conclude with, what would his flaws be? And if they were pointed out to him by his willing (ofc) darling would he be willing to change it?

[sulietsexual]

Hi I see you post a lot of pro Chris stuff and I don't want to push you to discuss anything but could you give me one example of when he treated Lorelai better than Luke? I mean he didn't even show up at the hospital after her dad had a heart attack and Luke did.

I’ll address the hospital point first, because it’s not as cut and dry as “Chris didn’t show up for Lorelai and Luke did.” 

In the episode in question we learn that Chris turned his phone off after his fight with Lorelai the night before and that’s why he didn’t turn up. It wasn’t because he was deliberately staying away, it’s because he literally didn’t know what was going on because his phone was switched off. Was switching off his phone and ghosting his wife for a day immature? Yes, of course. But he had no way of knowing that Richard would have a heart attack and that Lorelai would need him that day, and we do see that as soon as he turns his phone on and gets the messages he goes to the hospital. So, yeah, not a simple as “Luke was there and Chris wasn’t” but more a case of “Chris made a bad decision in turning his phone off and ending up looking like he didn’t care when in actuality he wasn’t aware of the situation”.

It’s hard to compare Luke and Chris and their relationships with Lorelai because they were so different and happened at such different times in her life. But I will always maintain that Luke treated Lorelai really badly during their relationship (and even before it), for a number of reasons.

For starters, he’s terrible at communication. He often just blows up at her instead of actually talking things through, such as when he yells at her when she buys his dad’s boat or the weekend they spend with Rory and Logan at Martha’s Vineyard where he’s snarky and complains the whole time. He doesn’t talk to her when he has a problem, he just yells and expects her to read his mind.

He cuts her out of his life time and again. At the beginning of Season 5 he tells her that he’s “all in” and then at the first sign of trouble, he bails. The whole debacle at Richard and Emily’s Wedding wasn’t even her fault (it was Emily and Chris’) and yet Luke dumps her, leaving her alone at the wedding and breaking up with her, simply because he didn’t want to deal with the fact that Emily didn’t like him and Chris got drunk and acted like a douche. Lorelai did nothing wrong in that scenario, yet he made her feel like he couldn’t deal with their relationship, made her feel like she had driven him away, and didn’t go back to her until Emily literally told him to. He went from being “all in” to bolting at the very first sign of trouble, instead of actually talking things through with Lorelai.

Then there’s April and really the entirety of Season 6. After (once again) screaming at Lorelai for something that wasn’t her fault, he tells her that the most important thing is trust, that they can’t have a relationship without being honest with one another and that he wants her to tell him everything. Then he finds out that he has a daughter and he hides it from Lorelai for two months (and probably would have continued to hide it if she hadn’t accidentally found out). After all that talk about trust and honesty, he hides something that huge from his fiance, lies to her face for two months and cuts her out of his life. If I were Lorelai, I would have been so hurt and betrayed.

Then, he postpones the wedding, right after Lorelai discovers that he’s been lying to her and keeping her out of such a huge part of his life, essentially sending the message that he doesn’t want to commit to her, that she doesn’t matter to him. He then spends the entire season blocking her from that part of his life, not letting her meet or spend time with April, not communicating with her, keeping her out of the loop and remaining blindly oblivious to how much he’s hurting her. He makes her feel small and insignificant, like she doesn’t have a place in his life, like he doesn’t want to be with her or share his life with her. Lorelai ends the season miserable because the man she wanted to spend her life with has treated her so badly for so many months. It’s horrible to watch.

Now, while Chris isn’t always the best person or the most reliable guy, he has always been clear with Lorelai. She has always known where she stands with him. At sixteen years old he was prepared to marry her, go to work with her father and commit to her and Rory but she turned him away. Over the years he has always been clear that he loves her, has always communicated and been upfront about his feelings. When he leaves in Season 2 it’s not because he wants to, it’s because he’s being the decent man and going back to Sherri to be a father, to support her and his child - something Lorelai didn’t let him do.

Then, when they’re together in Season 7, he is open and honest, he communicates with and talks to Lorelai. He lets her be a part of Gigi’s life and talks to her about changes in his life, he shows her Sherri’s letter within days of getting it, he discusses his daughter with her and actually lets Lorelai be a part of his (and Gigi’s) life. When they fight, they communicate openly afterwards, acknowledge why they were fighting, and reconcile (as opposed to Luke, who just yelled and then dictated the terms of their reconciliation). 

Chris is also, IMO, a better match for Lorelai. He is more outgoing and extroverted (like her), he kept up with her and knew how to handle her best. They had a playful and light banter, as opposed to the snarky and often mean “banter” which Luke and Lorelai had. Chris was happy for her when she was with Max and wished her genuine congratulations, as opposed to Luke who spent Lorelai’s entire engagement telling her that marriages fail and talking about how disastrous weddings were but then seemed to think that making the Hupa (sp?) made up for months of snarking.

But what of Chris’ behaviour at Emily and Richard’s wedding, you ask. Yes, let’s talk about that. Chris was a gigantic douchebag at that event. He was drunk and awful and he shouldn’t have said the things he said. He had also just suffered two extremely traumatising life events mere months before. His father had died and his wife had left him. He was emotional, grieving and vulnerable and Emily manipulated that vulnerability. While that’s not an excuse for his behaviour it is a reason and given how the rest of the time Chris is supportive of Lorelai and her relationships, this was definitely an OOC moment for him, brought on by his grief and loneliness.

So this got very long, but hopefully has cleared things up for you regarding my feelings towards both Luke and Chris and their respective relationships with Lorelai.

“Gilmore Girls;” The Sounds of Starry Hollow

“Gilmore Girls,” an iconic (and my personal favorite) feel-good television series, follows the story of mother/daughter duo Lorelei and Rory Gilmore navigating life in Starry Hollow. This blog discusses how “Gilmore Girls” uses music and sound to tell its charming story. From diegetic and non-diegetic transition music, down to the soundscape of Luke’s Diner, “Gilmore Girls” explores how sound can be effectively used in television. Today, let's look at S1, EP3 as an example.

Season one, episode three (Kill Me Know) begins with one of the Gilmore's weekly dinners at Emily and Richard’s house. At this dinner, it comes to Emily’s attention that Rory needs to choose a sport to play at Chilton, and she effectively forces Richard and Rory to schedule a round of golf the next day. Lorelai makes a valiant attempt to stop it, getting into a heated argument with her mother doing so, but her efforts are to no avail. The round of golf is begrudgingly on. The next day, while Rory is struggling to learn golf and connect with her grandfather, Lorelai is setting up for a huge wedding happening at the Independence Inn. From dealing with an overworked mother of the bride, two sets of twins, and Sookie’s bickering with the vegetable man, she’s got a lot on her plate. Yet all the while, she remains steady in her opinion that Rory must be having a horrible time golfing, and can’t wait to spill all the gossip later that night. However, Rory actually ended up having “quiet a nice time,” to use her own words. Her and Richard connected over their shared love of reading, which makes Lorelai feel incredibly jealous and insecure. So much so, that the women get into a heated argument themselves, and strom off to lick their respective wounds. At the wedding the next day, the Gilmore girls talk it out and eventually come to a mutual understanding, after watching how horrible the mother/daughter relationship is between the twin brides and their mother. Finally, the episode concludes where it began, at yet another Friday dinner with Richard and Emily. However, this dinner goes much more smoothly, which is a bittersweet pill for Lorelai and the audience to swallow.

Now that you’re caught up on what happened in the episode, let's take a deeper look into how diegetic music helps define relationships in “Gilmore Girls.” Starting with an instance of diegetic music at the beginning of the episode (minutes 4-6), when Lorelai and Emily (her mother) are arguing in the kitchen. There is the faint sound of a classical tune being played somewhere in the home. This song is used as an underscore to the intense argument, and becomes a sort of auditory symbol in the episode, representing tension in the mother/daughter relationship. The sweet hum of a simple classical melody is somewhat ironic, given that we only ever hear it when there is a fight to be picked. This contrast between the musical sound and episodic content only serves to emphasize the conflict between Lorelai and Emily more, pulling the audience into the different character perspectives and dramatic tension of the episode.

But wait! There’s more: If you thought this would be the only instance of classical music being used to define the mother/daughter relationship, think again. From minutes 32-34, we see Lorelai and Rory sitting on their porch and progressing into an argument about nothing and everything at the same time. The women argue about the unpermitted borrowing of a sweater, but in reality, this argument is about Lorelai being upset by the fact that Rory had a nice time with her grandparents, whom she dislikes. And while the women argue, there is none other than a simple, classical tune being played on the piano by a neighbor, heard through an open window. This is a moment of incredible specificity within the soundscape, as we’ve established that classical music signifies tension within the episode. The use of another classical song allows the audience to subconsciously compare Lorelai to Emily (her mother) in that moment, and allows Lorelai to have a similar realization. She discovers that maybe her and her mom aren’t so different, and she doesn't like this part of herself. The repeated use of classical music helps to make connections between different characters, on top of increasing dramatic tension.

What about when classical music isn’t used? If classical music isn’t your thing, don’t worry, there are also powerful moments in “Gilmore Girls” that explore the mother/daughter relationship, without a classical tune! For example, at minutes 38-40, we see Lorelai and Rory make up from their previous argument on their porch. This productive and apologetic conversation is not underscored by classical music, but by its counterpart, modern pop. There is a fun, upbeat, pop song being played by the wedding band in the background. The intentional non-usage of classical music indicates a different kind of mother/daughter relationship at this moment. We see a pair of women who are driven to talk to eachother out of a need for healing and mutual respect.  On top of this, the use of the musical opposite, pop music, indicates that this mother/daughter relationship is different than that of Lorelai and Emily. This only makes the audience fall in love with Lorelai and Rory’s story even more, and serves to create a heartwarming moment of women supporting women, instead of succumbing to jealousy and competition.

All in all, season 1, episode 3 (Kill Me Now) of “Gilmore Girls” intentionally uses diegetic, classical music as a means of exploring the mother/daughter relationship. This intentional usage (or non-usage) allows the audience to make connections between different mother/daughter pairs, and further audience investment in the characters and stories. As Lorelai says, “Life’s short, talk fast” and feel free to leave comments, questions, ideas, and thoughts below. Stay tuned for more!

16 Fictional Couples Who Should've Ended Up Together, But Didn't

There’s nothing more frustrating then when a TV show or movie give you two characters who are perfect for each other but doesn’t have them end up together.Like, why are you trying to hurt me? What did I do to deserve this pain?

Warning: Spoilers Ahead! 

  Ian and Mickey from Shameless 

This relationship was iconic, and it remains one of the most non-stereotypical gay relationships that has ever happened on television.  It was truly something special, and the ending felt forced and silly.Honestly, every other relationship on this show has paled in comparison to Ian and Mickey.

PreviouslyTV

Joyce and Bob the Brain on Stranger Things 

I do love the idea of Joyce getting with Hopper, but I know that they will be bad for each other.A relationship with Bob seemed like a real chance for Joyce to be happy, but that dream was ripped to shreds by a bunch of Demo-Dogs.

Sun and Mun from Sense8

I will never forgive Netflix for refusing to renew Sense8 for a third season because now we will never get to see Sun and Mun get together.Their chemistry is off the charts, and I could literally watch 10,000 hours of them sparring.

Tumblr | majorlyobsessed

Shawn and Angela from Boy Meets World

In my mind, these two always end up together. They were just meant to be and understood each other better than anyone else.However, Girl Meets World had to go and ruin any hope we had left that these two finally figured out they belong together.

Fanpop

Nate Archibald and Serena van der Woodsen from Gossip Girl 

I mean, come on — of course, Serena was supposed to end up with Nate! They are an iconic couple.I get that they did a ton of horrible things to each other, but so did every other couple on this dumpster fire of a show.

Giphy

Hawkeye and Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe

WHAT HAPPENED IN BUDAPEST?!I guess Marvel figured this relationship was too perfect or something, so they gave Hawkeye a wife and kids and decided Natasha should fall in love with the Hulk.

Also, Natasha isn’t a “monster” like the Hulk because she can’t have kids. That explanation has always bugged me.

Marvel Cinematic Universe Wiki

Lorelai and Christopher in Gilmore Girls 

If you’ve ever seen an episode of Gilmore Girls, then you know it’s obvious from very early on that Lorelei and Christopher are meant to be.The writers of this show were just too determined to keep Lorelai in the dating game, but watching her and Chris get together would have been way more interesting.

AdoroCinema

Katniss and Gale in The Hunger Games 

Sorry, Peeta fans, but Gale and Katniss should have been endgame.I’m just sick and tired of the “dopey boy with a lifelong crush getting the girl” trope. It’s boring! Katniss and Gale had a ton more in common, and that’s that.

The Hunger Games Wiki

Vada and Thomas J. in My Girl 

And now, I’m crying.Honestly, I’m sorry that I brought this up and reminded you of the Shakespearean tragedy that is My Girl, but if any two people on this list deserve justice, it’s them.

Essential Kids

Castiel and Dean from Supernatural 

I know that Supernatural is still on the air (and probably always will be), but I also know this relationship will never happen.The Supernatural writers are huge fans of teasing gay relationships and then walking them back. Cas and Dean’s relationship is easily the most compelling on the show, but now, it feels like a punchline.

Amino Apps

Neville Longbottom and Luna Lovegood from the Harry Potter movies.

Ummm, yes!Neville and Luna are just such great characters, and we would have loved to see them get together. They are a perfect match — both brave, kind, and loyal — and I can easily picture them falling in love.

Bustle

Marissa and Ryan from The O.C. 

Everyone who was born in the ’90s remembers exactly where they were when they saw “The Graduates‎,” the most life-ruining episode of The O.C. It was super devastating.Without Marissa, the show sort of fell apart. And don’t get me started on Taylor. Ugh.

The Zoe Report

Rachel and Joey from Friends 

I DON’T CARE WHAT YOU THINK.Ross is terrible, and Rachel deserved so much better. Ross is often jealous and belittles Rachel, but Joey has always cherished her, and they have so much fun together.

Also, did I mention that Ross is terrible?

Yara and Daenerys in Game of Thrones 

These two would have the Seven Kingdoms in the palm of their hands in less than a season.There was definitely tension between these ladies in the throne room, and as far as we know, they aren’t related.

AfterEllen

Lane and David Rygalski from Gilmore Girls 

Lane deserves so much better than she got. I will never forgive A Year In The Life for doing her so dirty. Obviously, she should have ended up with Dave. This isn’t up for debate.

The Great Gilmore Girls Rewatch

Can you think of a couple we missed? COMMENT and let us know!(C)

[madegeeky]

So, I’ve been rewatching Gilmore Girls which has been an interesting experience for a myriad of reasons.

1) I watched it years and years ago and, wow, I remember basically fuck all about this series.

2) Watching Lorelai interact with her mother, Emily, is horrifying in a way that I didn’t expect it to be. I knew that Emily was horrible to her daughter but now that I understand mental and emotional abuse so much better it’s just downright uncomfortable to watch sometimes, especially because I don’t believe that it will ever be spelled out (the way it should) that what Lorelai’s parents were emotionally and mentally abusive to her and don’t deserve to have a relationship with their daughter or their granddaughter until they’ve changed their ways, if even then. 

3) I’d heard people talk about how bad season 7 is but, since I could remember basically fuck all about the series, I was waiting to get to it to see if it’s as bad as people say. Holy fuck is it. The dialogue and actions for the large majority of the major characters in the seventh season are all severely out of character and it’s basically like watching bad fanfiction come to life. That being said, this is actually a problem that started for Luke in seasons 6, in my opinion. I think that him not telling Lorelai about his daughter and then deliberately keeping them apart was super out of character for him and I don’t buy it for a second. It felt like drama manufactured for the sake of drama, not an actual thing that Luke would do. That being said, one character acting ooc about one particular things versus all the characters acting ooc about almost everything, it’s not hard to see why most people focus on season 7 and tend to forget Luke’s weird characterization in seaons 6.

4) I will forever and always rue the day that when the writers had Lorelai tell Luke that she’d slept with Christopher he didn’t pause and then say something along the gist of, “We’ll figure it out. That was wrong of you but it was wrong of me to keep April away from you. Both of us made mistakes here and it’s time for both of us to step up and make this right together.” That would have been an amazing way to still have the drama but to do it in a realistic way. Not to mention it would have been really nice to see a relationship like that on television. 

5) I am pissed as fuck about the fact that Luke could stand there and tell Lorelai, “We failed because we just weren’t meant to happen.” No, fuck you, you failed because you fucking kept her away from a new, huge part of her life and you failed because Lorelai was trying so hard to respect that distance that she never voiced how horrible she was feeling and you failed because you refused to stop and think for ever one fucking second about how you were making Lorelai feel and you failed BECAUSE YOU STOPPED FUCKING TRYING, LUKE.” Don’t get me wrong, it’s not all on Luke, but a huge portion of it I do think falls to his shoulders and those particular lines coming out of his mouth make me want to fucking punch him. 

6) Unless there’s some major shift in the story or the characters in the rest of season 7, I honestly think I’m just going to pretend season 7 never happened. It’s horribly written and does nothing but actively damage its own characters AND IT’S JUST FUCKING BAD AND MY LIFE IS BETTER FOR DENYING IT’S COMPLETE EXISTENCE. Fuck season 7, basically.

10 Favourite Characters

So @shimmershae tagged me in this ages ago but I have been swamped with RL and apparently this required a lot of thinking on my part :-) So I have many more favourites and I suck at inserting gifs so this will be a text only post cuz I am horrible at these things. And I pulled these from all different areas in my life and realised I really should have focussed on one genre... When I get on my computer I will edit this to put it behind a cut. Until then, sorry!!! Without further ado and in no particular order: 10 fave characters Sirius Black- So dear old Sirius Black. I love him and have since I first read about him. He was the first character to suck me in immediately and as his story was revealed I just grew to love him more and more. It's probably the tragic backstory in part and the idea that he never quite fit with who he was supposed to be. I'm a big sucker for people who break the moulds they are set. I actually enjoy both the book and film versions, but I will admit to loving Gary Oldman and he can't play a role badly but I do agree that Sirius and Remus were cast a bit too old. And then Sirius died which yes, makes sense from a story perspective but it really broke my heart. He just had such a shitty lot in life and I don't think he ever knew that he was loved. Roan This was one of my surprise favourites and just like Sirius he had me from the very first episode. I don't really know why he interested me initially, it was just something that happened. When his princely status was revealed and the fight with Lexa that was really it for me. There was just so much that was left unexplored about him and it felt like he really had a story to tell that was important and we never actually got to hear it in canon which is endlessly disappointing. Shadow Moon American Gods is one of the books that got me through a few rough patches and I have always loved Shadow because he just can't catch a break. A trend in my faves I know. But he is so adorably obstinacy about seeing what is actually happening and I always found that incredibly charming. He isn't perfect from a moral standpoint but he does his best and sometimes that is good enough. I love this book and there is no way I could not mention Shadow. And Ricky Whittle is perfection. It almost makes up for Lincolns death. Almost, but not quite. McSweeney - show mainly (bonus) Yes, another character who has just had enough and hates everyone for screwing him around. The show version of him is beautiful because he really needed an expanded story and there isn't as much to go on in the books. And I love me a funny Irishman ;) Lorelai Gilmore Gilmore Girls was the one of only two shows I never missed as it aired. I should have identified more with Rory because we were closer in age and with the sheer volume of reading she does could rival mine, it would make sense. But Lorelai had a different kind of heart. And I loved how hard she always tried. I was really not a fan of the her-marrying-Christopher plot because everyone knows it's Luke forever, but up until then she could do no wrong. I aspire to be as cool as she was as a mom one day. Hermione Granger Yes, she has her flaws but I adore Hermione. I was a bit of a know it all when I was younger too, I never got along with girls and I always turned to books in my time of need. Im happy that she is inspiring other young girls to not hide how smart they are because you should never hide your brilliance. I'm not a Ron fan, I thought that as sweet as he is he's just not a good match for her, but hey. The Doctor I'm going for the general character here, not a specific regeneration (though 10 and 9 are my faves). For me The Doctor has always been a bit inspirational in that no matter how many times people, societies, the universe in general disappoints him he just never gives up. He always steps in to do what needs doing and goes back in again and again and fights harder each time. I'm looking forward to the new season to see how the gender swap influences the story and I'm a bit nervous but in a good way. Carol (to show not comic) I've been a fan of the comics for many years and so I watch the show pretty religiously as well. Some of the character changes appeal to me, some don't. Carol is definitely one that I LOVE. There is nothing I don't like about her evolution on the show. She has risen out of the ashes of an abusive relationship and the death of a child and become a momma bear taking care of absolutely everyone and she still manages to maintain and grow a stronger sense of self. It is just a beautiful and incredibly inspiring character arc. The Joker Ah my favourite agent of chaos. I've never been a huge DC reader or Batman either but The Joker has always been an incredible bad guy. He is sadistic and evil and does it all for the pleasure of creating chaos. He is fun as a bad guy and the fact that we still don't know much about where he came from is intriguing. Harley Quinn Not because of her association with Mr. J but more recently how she has moved on from that relationship. When she first appeared it was quite confronting and controversial to show such an abusive relationship and recently she has truly grown into her own. But throughout she has shown the many sides of being in an abusive relationship and they have all been important, even when she continued to believe that she was truly loved. And it should make you angry and sad and disappointed as a reader because that means they are telling the story right. And seeing her finally break away was really satisfying. Now I don't have much time to read comics anymore so I don't know much about recent story arcs but I'm happy with where I left off with her. And unhappy that suicide squad the movie really gave audiences the wrong idea about them as a couple. Harry Dresden Want an adult, slightly bitter, always accident prone wizard who bribes fairies with pizza? You will love Dresden. The TV show sucked but the books are awesome. There's a zombified T-Rex! Harry is just amazing and I wish I could just sit down in a bar and drink a beer with him. Or ten. And then chat to Bob for hours. Buffy The second show I never missed an episode of growing up. It doesn't really need much explanation. She was awesome. Flawed and angry on occasion but always tried to do the best she could. Iago (Shakespeare) This is where my obsession with villainous characters started. Iago is amazing. He is just cruel and in it for himself and a classic example that there have always been villains like him in the world.
