No ma'am. And I hate that whole 'jump the shark' phrase btw. People were saying that at the end of last season. If that was the case, they should have ended it with the big kiss last season and left it all to our imaginations. There simply was no logical way to drag out the 'will-they-or will-they-not' scenario after 3 years of it. So, they had Carol still be indecisive about moving to New York, etc. The whole idea of Liz, the ex, showing up added drama again as well ( ... )

I don't like Coupling that much really. Not that it's too cerebral or anything for me, it's just too over the top. Sometimes I like edge.. sometimes I don't. I only like Patrick he's funny.
Either way.. it's better than fucking Gimme Gimme UGH!

Patrick?!!! heavysoul February 6 2004, 12:27:34 UTC
Patrick's the character that's over the top. In the sense that he's such a man-whore moron. Yes, his delivery is very laconic and dry, but still he's the most rediculously sexist character. Jeff was my favorite, as the Steven Moffatt, the writer, and Richard Coyle, who played Jeff, agreed, he is the 12 year-old boy that is frightneningly in all of Us, but he doesn't have the sense to not say those things aloud! I can see how his over-analysis of everything vaguely seedy could be viewed as over-the-top, but that's what's so 'brilliant!' about him, his rediculously detailed psychosis. I don't know, some of us men had over-bearing/over-protective mothers that gave us religious guilt towards all things sexual, so I can relate to a degree. (translation: I am almost as repressed as "Jeff"; he's just an extremely exaggerated version for comedic purposes). He's so innocent really, which is the charm-he has a good moral fiber, but just hasn't gotten past that grade school fascination with breasts. But hell, why should we? They are quite ( ... )
