| This is a great miniseries. I finally watched all of it last year sometime and it's amazing. The fact that Richard Chamberlain was very good looking didn't hurt things. I see this as the ultimate forbidden love story. It's based on a book too, my best friend got me a copy for Christmas and I can't wait to read it, I just have so much other things to get through first lol.__________________ avatar/icon made by: JoAFreak Hatter/Alice Harry/Hermione Hawkeye/Margaret Jim/Pam Josh/Donna Luke/Lorelai Ned/Chuck Proud Keeper of the couples: Hawkeye Pierce & Margaret Houlihan and BJ & Peg Hunnicutt on M*A*S*H | |||

I probably wouldnt be able to help having a crush on a priest too. ![]() __________________ Victor: "Wait. I made a promise" The Corpse Bride: "You kept your promise. You set me free.

| Yeah, I can totally see why Meggy fell for him. ![]() And just because I'm a trivia fiend--did you know that the guy who played Meggy's husband Luke in this is her hubby in real life? They met on the set and are still together after all this time. That's a lifetime in Hollywood measures. ![]() __________________ avatar/icon made by: JoAFreak Hatter/Alice Harry/Hermione Hawkeye/Margaret Jim/Pam Josh/Donna Luke/Lorelai Ned/Chuck Proud Keeper of the couples: Hawkeye Pierce & Margaret Houlihan and BJ & Peg Hunnicutt on M*A*S*H | |||

Fee said to Father Ralph that she wanted to forget she even had a daughter. I am using a Ralph and Meggie icon, and have this thread linked to my signature. ![]() | |||
