Day 19 - Best TV show cast
I don't know about Best, but my favourite is probably the cast from Boy Meets World. Everything about those characters and actors is lovely, and my heart aches every time I see photos or mentions of them getting together these days. I think I aged exactly the same as Cory Matthews - like, he was 12 when I was 12, and while I didn't get married at 19, they hold a very special place in my heart. From Morgan all the way to Mr Feeny.
Day 20 - Favorite kiss
I'm trying to think of any kisses that I had been waiting a long time for, but I'm drawing up a blank. One kiss that stands out in my mind very clearly though, even though I only watched it the one time, was between Jack McPhee and Ethan (?) on Dawson's Creek. It was sometime in the year 2000, my senior year of highschool, and Jack had joined the cast as Joey Potter's love interest. I liked the character a lot (he was my then boyfriend's favourite character) and it turned out he was gay. So he struggles with this, and he has an interest in Ethan, who doesn't want him until he's ready. One day after much angst, he decides that, no, he's going to do this, and they (Jack and a friend I can't remember who) stop at Ethan's boarding school, and he runs to him, awkwardly tries to explain himself to Ethan, gives up and just kisses him.
omg.
Okay, so it turned out that Ethan had already begun trying to work things out with his ex, so it was all for naught, but I was so amazed by the kiss. I didn't really expect it to happen, though I didn't know it was the first gay kiss on network TV. It was a really hot kiss, to be honest. I was so pleased by it all. I remember discussing it with girls at school the next day. They thought it was gross, but I was so gleeful. IT WAS THE BEST.
HERE. WATCH IT. ABOUT 1:48 IN.
(I also really loved Arthur and Gwen's first kiss. I wasn't expecting it so soon, and even though I thought they were awkward, the backlight and the swelling violins really did it for me. I think I watched it like 5 times.)
