Thank you for everything.

Dude - just finding out we're totally in the minority B-)

AND HOW ARE YOU!

[sogay.livejournal.com]

I'm probably in the majority because I HATED pussy-whipped Brian. Having him return to himself was the best present Cowlip could have ever given me.

It was a beautiful, beautiful ending. I'm so glad I was unspoiled by the fandom bruhaha.

AND I AM GOOD. HOW ARE YOU!!! >:D

Majority. Minority... Same difference.

I may have low expectations for happy endings, but he experienced the love of his life. Very few can have that.

My show. Thank you for not disappointing me.

I didn't expect to be this proud of my show at the end, honey. Respect, yo.

[sweetestdrain]

Yes yes yes yes.

Perfect ending. Perfect, perfect.

I was so worried you weren't going to like the ending. You have no idea how relieved I am that you liked it. Hehehe...

[f1renze.livejournal.com]

Not sure why you were worried, but I've been tellin' ya - just because I'm B/J, doesn't mean I'd kill myself if they don't end up "together" (loosely defined because to me, it's about experiencing that great love - a love that changes you at the very core - regardless of relationship status).

Oh I know... you know how it is. I thought the Brian/Justin ending was great. I wasn't sure how you were going to feel about it and it's always sad to have a show end and be left... almost unfulfilled... you know?

:)

[f1renze.livejournal.com]

To me the fulfillment is about experiencing that breakthrough in your life - knowing who you are and being able to love and be honest about it. So I've been fulfilled for a while now. :x

[piper47.livejournal.com]

Well that's good. :-D Yay!

[meimur.livejournal.com]

Agreed!

I think it was pretty damn good myself, and I generally LIVE for having closure. But for this show, it is one of the few endings that I could be satisfied with.

I don't know if its Cowlip, or the community or just the characterizations, but I have to believe that there is a happy medium for Brian and Justin, that is somewhere between "stepford fag" and club kid. The couple that B/J tricked with at the beginning of the season seemed to have a line on an answer that might end up working for B/J, but when they were discussing relationships at the end, it seemed like monogamous marriage was the only option. *sigh*

I agree, but we have to remember that QaF is not about compromising and middle grounds. Like they said in the look-back thing (that aired just before 513), the gateway show needs to be somewhat black and white.

Re B/J -- I think ever since I saw Brian realize just how far he would go for love, I've been satisfied. It felt like the ending almost wouldn't matter, because there was no going back. Like I said in above comment(s), it's about experiencing that breakthrough in life that truly redefines who you think you are, and this is much greater than relationship status.

I really agree - the shows I enjoy most generally have a character who you can watch really growing and changing - Its one of the things I enjoyed about watching Buffy, and it is one of the things that drew me in to QAF. Watching brian's baby steps has been one of the things that kept me coming back every week, and I am really glad that they gave a great divedend on all the change he has made.

Oh Flozie wasn't it wonderful.:(( They gave us so much romance in those last few eps - it was so deliciously satisfying. And I admit it. I cried a little at the end.:"> Even though our boys ended up apart, they were still given the most epic love story of all the show's characters, and that felt completely RIGHT, you know? I think it's kinda fitting that they're the ones that ended up this way - that they weren't boxed in to a fairytale happy ending. They're our lovers on the edge - wild and carefree and I sound like a Hallmark card so I'll stop now.
I can't believe this life is over. 'Tis the weirdest feeling.
PS. Scrapped vid. Am making a new one.=))

[f1renze.livejournal.com]

I agree :x:x

PS I will find you [-o<
