McDrink!

I've realised that it's not unusual that I am not shipping the same couple that everyone else does. Lalle/Larias is proof of that. I just can't stand Larias any more but Lalle makes my heart skip some beats. McHay/Starry is even more proof. There weren't so many McHay shippr out there I've realised, but almost everyone seemed to love Starry, which I just couldn't stand! At all! I am not sad that they broke up. Normally I would now be rooting for McHay to get back together, but I'm not so sure any more...

Ross Adams & James Sutton in Hollyoaks.

Because now I am a McDrink shipper! I really hated Scott Drinkwell in the beginning for flirting with Ste, but now I totally dig hin with John Paul! It's weird how feelings work actually. But they are just so darn cute together! But, by the comments on youtube I can see that most people hate them together and that they still hate Scott. But I have to say that he is terribly misunderstood! And I have to say that I just can't stand Ste any more. After the awful Starry storyline he just feels... dirty! So I enjoy McDrink, I enjoy Scott very much because he's cute, I still love John Paul because he is amazing and I absolutely love Sally! The storyline about her being JP's father is just amazing! So, a McDrik shipper I am! James and Kieron have to be very convincing to make me go there again! But I know that James loves working with Ross so I'm not sure it will happen vary soon. And also, Ross apparenty came up with the ship name Scone-Paul but I think that sounds ridiculous. I'm sticking with McDrink!

Underwhelming Holby...

So, Marc Elliott appeared in Holby City as Isaac Mayfield for the first time a couple of days ago, and I just started the Dominic Copeland storyline. So I guess it will be a while before I'm gonna see him...

Adam Astill & Jimmy Akingbola.

But at least I finished the Dan and Malick storyline the other day! How underwhelming... Apparently there were a snog but I couldn't see that because that clip was blocked. And then there were just nothing... But I really liked the character of Dan! Dan Hamilton (Adam Astill) seemed a bit stiff at first but I realised I really liked him some episodes in to that storyline. So I kind of enjoyed the total underwhelming storyline anyway. And at least I got to know Antoine Malick by watching that. And I know that there will be something with him and Dominic.

David Ames as Dominic Copeland.

Dominic (David Ames) is really cute by the way. I am really looking forward to getting to know him and see all his boyfriends. I think there will be more than one at least...

What happened to Tom and Johnny?

Don't you just hate it when they hinting a romace between someone and then just... nothing!? Whatever happened to the romance we were going to get between Tom Pepper (Tristam Summers) and Johnny Carter (Ted Reilly)? Well, I don't think it's ever going to happen! So why are you doing a thing of it then? Why Eastenders? Just don't get it...

Timothy Boldt & Lukas Sauer.

It reminds me of all the big fuzz they made about Ringo and Aaron in Unter Uns. It was promoted as they greatest summer romance ever or something and they hade sex twice! Or something... Ringo had a small crush I think but there was no more. And we all felt very deceived. Just rubbish!

Aaron Sidwell as Steven Beale.

Well, we have our hopes on Steven Beale. He is back and he has already had some glimpses on Johnny. But he also brought back a girlfriend! Let's take it from the beginning. Steven Beale is the stepson of Ian Beale and he first showed up in 1989. He has not been a goody goody for sure and when he came back it seems like everybody hated him. Including Christian Clarke (John Partridge) who was back for a couple of episodes (yay!) who apparently Steven kissed back in the days. I guess I have to see Christians early days to really get the character of Steven Beale. No one really knows if he's really gay, but at least he's bisexual. The boring Lauren broke up with him and I hope he won't take her back so he's available for Johnny! I like Steven. He's an interesting character. I hope THAT will be the summer romance of this year! I think he and Johnny would be cute together.

DeRo again

Dennis Grabosch & Igor Dolgatschew.

Do yu know what? I got my bf to watch Deniz & Roman with me! How did I do that? I got the idea from my faghag friend to bargain with him. He gets to watch of my storylines and I have to watch one of his series. I choose DeRo because it's been a while since I saw it, it's quite long and I have really been craving it for a while now. I get to see Star Trek Deep Space Nine. I'm ok with that. I like Star Trek (especially The Next Generation) even though I kind of never watch it, and he threatened to choose Dexter at first but I protested against that and said veto. I wouldn't have liked that. He sounds like he needs taking a shit all the time and he kind of hiss all the time. The parts I've seen I haven't liked. And I actually do think that he doesn't hate it. He laughs some times and he doesn't complain that much. And Alles Was Zählt is a very humourable series with a lots of lovingable characters. But it's really slow! He doesn't like it that much. He always sighs a lot when I sugest watching it. But hey, you can't have everything!

Good news!

Nashville.

Well, look a here! Nashville has been renewed for a fifth season! That's good! I hate when they cancel shows without wrapping it up. At least we can get a closure now. I am hoping for a happy end with lots of love for Will!

Marc Elliott as Isaac Mayfield.

And in the 23:rd of June we finally get to see Marc Elliott as Isaac Mayfield in Holby City! I am hoping for a quite slow romance with lots of angst. Really. If it's too fast and easy it just feels... mäh! I just have to start watching Holby City then! I am a bit slow on that. I am still watching Chryed and t takes forever! Even though I skip all the boring parts with the Masood family and stuff... But soon, soon! I hope I will have the time to start watching it before my vacation. But I think I will do alright. In spite of everything, I just have 8 weeks holiday left!

Parents...

Chryed and Syed's family. And Amira.

Watching Chryed I also got reminded of how awful his parents are most of the time! Ok, they are muslim, and the storyline is really important, but I just hate when parents are homophobes! It's the most heartbreaking thing to ever witness! And Nitin Ganatra and Nina Wadia (Zainab & Masood) made a really good job portraing dirtbags! I lost count how many times they disowned Syed! But, fortunately, they came to turns with it eventually. When Christian and Syed finally got married they were almost even sweet!

Sam Strike & Kellie Bright.

And speaking of Eastenders, Zainab and Masood has not been the only ones. When Johnny Carter (Sam Strike/Ted Reilly) came out early in 2014 his mother Linda Carter just couldnt accept it! I mean, in 2014! His dad, Mick (Danny Dyer) was much more supportive and relaxed about it. But Linda was just awful! Ok, she has gotten over it now but I just can't forgive her for it! She is always going to be poison to me!

Lari & Ilkka.

Another classic homophobic biggot is Ilkka Väänänen (Ari-Matti Hedman) from Salatut Elämät. We all thought that he might be ok when he didn't make any fuzz right there and then when he saw Lari and Elias on the sofa when he forgot his wallet. But we were so wrong! Another dad disowning his son and he even tried to "cure" him by sending Lari to an anti-gay camp. Just awful! Poor Lari! I wonder what would have happened to Larias if Ilkka weren't such a jerk?

Clemens Löhr & Alexander Becht.

This is actually quite interesting. When Nik Breidenbach played Alexander Cöster in GZSZ we was a homophobe, but when Clemens Löhr took over the part he was not. Not as much at least. Early in the days, Alexander of some reason believed that lenny was gay and Lenny tricked Alexander that he was just because he was a homophobic bully as a father. Not really nice at all. But when they changed actor and Lenny got together with Carsten everything was forgiven and forgotten. I like the new Alexander better. Definitely.

Jo Weil & Thore Schölermann.

Even the wonderful Oliver Sabel had a homophobic mother. His aunt Charlie was really nomal, but his mother Henriette was bitter and religious and didn't want her son to marry the love of his life. Christian that is. But she finally came around. But she was that unimportant that there's no good pictures of her on the net. That might as well be just as good. I never liked her.

Dennis Grabosch & Hartmut Volle.

Roman Wild in Alles Was Zählt even lied about his parents living in Australia because they were homophobes who had disowned him. It was just because Roman's little brother Florian moved/fled to Roman that we got to meet Roman's biggoty father Egon. I would rather have been without that acquaintance. Really. He never became better. He was just creapy.

Scott & Lisa Evans.

Surprise surprise, there's also American religious homophobic and biggoty parents. When Oliver Fish in One Life to Live finally came out his parents didn't approve ofcourse. Fortunately for us, Fish chose Kyle and not his mother. A fun fact is that it was Scott Evans' real mother Lisa who played barbara Fish for some episodes. We can't really accuse Lisa Evans for being agreat actor, but who is in a soap opera hey? Except for Danny Miller!

Daniel Hugh Kelly.

And I don't think anyone could accuse Winston Mayer for being a cozy and sweet guy. He was just awful! A manipulative stridspitt (that's swedish. Try working out what it means if you can!) that only cared about himself.He even tried to kill Noah's (Jake Silbermann) great love Luke (van Hansis). Luke got shot and couln't walk for while just because of this awful man! Every time he came back the Nuke storyline just got a little bit more angstly. Did not like him at all.

Nicolas Herman & Bernard Allouf.

Words can't enough how much I detest Yves Barrel, the father of Nicolas Barrel from Plus Belle la Vie. He is just pure evil! Homophobic, murderous, violent, manipulative, abusive... He is just it all. And that's not a good thing. The only good thing about him was that he disappeared eventually. The bad thing was that Nicolas disappeared about the same time. I miss Nicolas! It's a wonder he ended up such a nice person (when he wasn't a druggie) with that father. He and Egon Wild is kind of the same character. And that's no good thing!

Joshua Pascoe and Steve McFadden.

And let's go back to where we started. Eastenders. ben Mitchell (Joshua Pascoe/Harry Reid) has not had it easy. Phil Mitchell, his father, is not a very nice man. Ben has a homophobic father who kind of maid him get a beard not to loose him, his mother came back from the dead and he also was in prison for killing his stepmother's best friend. But I believe that was an accident... Anyhow, I don't ever think Phil Mitchel will approve of his gay son. Even though he is trying. But fake it you make it is not reallyPhil Mitchell's strong side. But I am open for being convinced otherwise!
