A Little Bit of Escapism & Romance

I am a screen-oholic.  I would have said a TV-oholic, but with DVDs and Netfix, it's movies too.  Actually it also includes Youtube.  I love to let my mind rest by binging on screen time.  Over the last month, between all the hagim, the guest, family, and Gavi's bar mitzvah, the screen has been my escape.  I can retreat to my room with a laptop or my ipad, and watch nonsense to my heart's and my head's content.  Lately, I've been focused on romance.  I like mysteries and buddy-cop dramas, but frequently, I guess to appeal to my own demographic, even they have a little romance tossed in.  I've also discovered that if you search your favorite couples on Youtube you can find fan videos of all the best moments made by people who have way more time than I.  Still, I've become obsessed with a few.  After discovering a lot of videos of the best movie and TV kisses, I realized that I too have some favorites, plus, there's nothing like a first kiss...


  • Hatter & Alice (SyFy miniseries- Alice), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j74MQ9Rd3Go
  • Kensi & Deeks (NCIS LA), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXlPDG_vvws (Can't wait to see what will happen.  Of course it won't be smooth.)
  • Kurt & Blaine (Glee), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEz4PQOtikM
  • Penelope & Max (Penelope), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=If7yzsrEIEM
  • Declan & Anna (Leap Year), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=If7yzsrEIEM (Plus the proposal- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCYlbOhpR0o)
  • Brandon & Marianne (Sense & Sensibility), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhup0tn57h8 (Okay, there's no kiss, but look how happy Brandon is!)
  • Darcy & Lizzy (Pride & Prejudice), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkQP19Ebzhw (The BBC miniseries is better, but this is soooo sweet.
  • Grigg & Jocelyn (Jane Austen Book Club), no video unfortunately.
There are more, but these are my current obsession with Hatter & Alice and Deeks & Kensi at the top of the list.  

By the way, I also cry at commercials.
