Re: This is my second attempt to post a response. LJ FAIL.

I don't mind het. Bu contrived het to banish the gay fans drives me up a wall and has killed good shows, no lie.

Elizabeth isn't contrived (although they did deliberately create her from the start to put a kibosh on too much gay. Apparently, USA had never heard of threesomes. haha). I like her. I just wish White Collar was deeper. My feelings about it are that it's fun to watch sometimes but I don't *need* to watch it, you know?

Nah, the first gay romance they'll do on a mainstream show, if ever, will be some side characters in something boring. Just like they do with most of the het relationships on mainstream tv. The painful/delicious/awesome/funny arcs that fanfic writers create out of platonic relationships onscreen for het and slash are like a billion times better.

Of course, I'm a cynical old woman now. So there's that. And I keep hoping, despite my bitterness. Heh.

WAISTCOATS. You know it occurred to me the other day that (and this is completely crazy) Harvey reminds me of Etienne. I don't know why. I only saw one ep.
