lol I actually meant to put that I loved alot of couples on Buffy, but this was my favorite.

but ICA. aside from Buffy [actually, I kind of feel that Joss did a good job selling the couples to me. there wasn't one that I disliked... except for Xander/Willow.] I hate alot of TV couples. I love alot, but I hate even more. I believe in the whole soulmate [like with Bangel for me] but I hate when a show gives you one couple from the beginning and they never let go of it, and they shove "meant to be together" down my throat. I like the teen couples that are raw and real... and I think these two were like that. and they were super cute and super funny.

Yeah, the best couples are the ones that just sort of happen.

i could not agree more - not every relationship has to be the be all and end all

**shutterbug579** · 06-23-2008, 01:33 PM

What I liked about Xander and Cordy was that when their relationship ended, it actually ended. There wasn't any back and forth and they didn't act like their lives were ending. It wasn't a nice breakup but it was realistic.

ita

i think it was quite realistic for high school

**shutterbug579** · 07-05-2008, 01:56 PM

I love the Xander/Cordy interaction in "The Puppet Show."

Quote:

Cut outside to cheerleader practice. Xander is talking to Cordelia.

Cordelia: It's just such a tragedy for me. Emma was, like, my best friend.

Xander: Emily.

Cordelia: All I can think is, it coulda been me!

Xander: We can dream.

Followed by this...

Quote:

Xander: Okay, next time we split up someone else is on Cordy detail. Five more minutes with her and we woulda had another organ donor.

starryeyesxx · 07-06-2008, 01:00 PM

yeah & just how stressed out he looks when he's walking with her!

**shutterbug579** · 07-06-2008, 04:29 PM

I also like the little bit between Giles and Cordy when he uses the trick Xander told him about. I'd like to see the conversation where that came up!

starryeyesxx · 07-07-2008, 04:21 AM

me too, oh s1 x/c makes me nostalgic

**shutterbug579** · 07-07-2008, 03:12 PM

Me too. Were you surprised when they put Cordy and Xander together in season 2?

Fiana · 07-07-2008, 07:35 PM

I was a bit surprised ´cause Cordy and Xander never seemed to like each other and they were still insulting each other when they were together.

starryeyesxx · 07-08-2008, 04:18 AM

it's funny i can't actually remember my reaction, i barely even remember watching s2! but i remember i was really like them by becoming bc i watched that ep repeatedly over the summer & they had cute moments

**shutterbug579** · 07-08-2008, 12:13 PM

I expected the snark to turn to flirting but I was surprised they became an actual couple.

starryeyesxx · 07-09-2008, 04:23 AM

yeah - i wonder if we were as surprised as them

**shutterbug579** · 07-09-2008, 11:29 AM

I love this interview and it seems appropriate to post right now
