Here are the last few posts in the old thread to get the discussion rolling...

I think the characters (Both of them) have grown beyond that point, and right now might as well be their only chance to go on without a what if. Because after the season finale, if I was Elliot, and I married keith, I would always be left wondering what would have happened with I went with JD. Same goes for JD. Maybe it isn't the ideal time, but better late then never.

Ross and Rachel make me believe in Jelliot. By the by, don't be ashamed to use Jelliot! It's the best we've got for now..

But I couldn't see them doing the same with either Keith or Kim. If they didn't end up together with either of those two I think they'd just be like 'eh' and move on.

Of course, he's always loved her. Even though it's not always sexual/romantic, there's always going to be something there, like they're beyond friends, and yet they're not. I think that's something the anti's are missing, is that even when it's hot and heavy b/w them there's always going to be a more platonic quality to their relationship than others, and when it's friendship, there's a more intimate quality than other friendships. They've just got to learn to strike the right balance.

Here's a

for the dead-on analysis. Very well put.

I'm still a little irritated the way Turk told JD what love was, like there's an absolute definition, and it requires minivans and whatnot. It was quite pretentious of him IMO.

I suppose it was. I haven't thought too much about what was said in the last episode of Season 3 because it's too frustrating to try and make sense of. "I liked all those things about Elliot, but I didn't love them." Wtf? I love my girlfriend but it doesn't mean I love when she digs down on my knee to get up from a low seat. You don't have to love everything about your partner.

Quote:

I really dig the bungee jump. It was a just-friends moment, but it's so iconic and I really can't imagine either of them doing it with anybody else.

That was such a class moment. And it brought their stunt doubles together so even pretending to be JD and Elliot made two people fall in love.

Thanks for the new thread Janine!

hannahbanana · 08-24-2007, 08:59 AM

No problem, Val.

Now back to topic: I think another reason why Jelliot wasn't successful before was the fact that too much was happening in their professional lives that they didn't have the energy to spend on making the relationship work. They were also both too immature. JD is basically a kid and he needed a mature woman to keep him in line. Unfortunately, Elliot was not that woman in those early years. She was too immature herself. It wasn't until these last 2 seasons that she actually grew up, having cut her ties with Daddy and living on her own. It took a while but she did learn to handle her relationships in a mature way. Same goes for JD.

What I'm saying is, it wasn't the right time for them to be together the many times they tried. I think they could make it work now that they've grown professionally and emotionally. I think they were starting to realize that in the last few episodes of Season 6.

Now, I have a treat in honor of the new thread. Here are some BTS pics of Ken, Neil & Sarah, rehearsing for My Musical. Since I couldn't post the vid in YouTube, I just made screencaps.

valeposh · 08-24-2007, 09:03 AM

Thanks for those! You might want to post them in the picture thread as well...

rubik123 · 08-24-2007, 09:09 AM

well put jahna. I like the name of the thread hah. Its just funny to me how you guys are so excited about the title "Jelliot" when I've used it on other boards regularly since like April

hannahbanana · 08-24-2007, 09:35 AM

Posted them in the picture thread, Val.

We're not really all that excited about the name 'Jelliot.' I think we're just getting used to using it after having disliked it for so long.

valeposh · 08-24-2007, 09:44 AM

Yeah we always knew it was being used on other boards, we just didn't want to give up...and then somehow we did!

I'm Not Dead · 08-24-2007, 10:33 AM

Thanks so much for the BTS pics.

rubik123 · 08-24-2007, 02:26 PM

jahna you got to post that video on Youtube as well.. You must find a way

Where do you get this stuff anyway? I thought I saw all the BTS videos, and you just keep bringing this stuff from nowhere

wickiswalter · 08-24-2007, 04:35 PM

Janine,

, thanks for the new thread!

And guy,

at the title!!

TheJanitor86 · 08-24-2007, 07:51 PM

Jelliot never really sat well with me, mostly because I hate that name combining craze everyone is so crazy about with celebs. Even when they had the online poll to name Turn and Carla's baby, people actually put down curk and turla, it was so retarded.

rubik123 · 08-24-2007, 07:58 PM

janitor86, what do you hate about name combining? I think its hilarious. That's part of the reason I name-combine. The other reason is that it saves time.

TheJanitor86 · 08-24-2007, 08:01 PM

I don't know, just never cought on with me, felt like another pop fad.

otherwise · 08-24-2007, 09:28 PM

New thread.

Those caps are awesome Janine

. Sucks that the video can't be uploaded.
