The Lauren Graham/Scott Patterson Appreciation Thread
 

Ok, I'm totally not sure if I'm allowed to have a thread like this, so, please close it if it's not allowed.

The thread title's pretty self explanatory.;) This is the thread to discuss, gossip, and generally squee about LG and SP. Be it as friends, something more, whatever, this is the thread to do it.

Disclaimer - This thread is harmless fun. We do not know if SP and LG are actually dating. This is not a thread to discuss LG or SP's personal lives, or their families. Just a thread for fun. Please be appropriate.

:star:Notes:star:
1. Please, no bashing the actors! This is an appreciation thread.
2. Don't gossip too much. Be appropriate. See disclaimer.
3. This isn't the Luke/Lorelai thread. There's an L/L thread on the GG board, go there if you want to talk about them.

Pictures!

What They've Said About Each Other

Scott: Right. It's.... it's daunting yeah, but you know, we are pretty much lead by Lauren Graham. You know, she is remarkable because we..... We don't really get much rehearsal at all.
Scott: Uh, so..... I remember last season we did a ten page scene that they handed us in the make-up trailer. And we had no chance to rehearse it or even look at it. We just has to go in and shoot it because it was a scene that was uh, rewritten.
Scott: Uh, and ya just kind of learn to do it. And they don't give you all the time in the world and you pretty much better get it, so we're getting better all the time at working under the gun.
Scott: Yeah, you don't know where uh, Lorelai ends and Lauren begins.
Scott: Uh, It's really true. She's the perfect actress for that role cause she is like that. I mean she does have that.... that manic energy and that super sharp intelligence and that wit. You know, she really is like that. Uh, but anyway, they give us as many takes as we need to get it perfect. Uh, last night we did it in two takes, um, some nights we do it in twenty. It just really depends on....on... You know sometimes the dialogue can get really tricky.
Scott: There are some real tongue twisters in there. And, you know, they're giving her reams of dialogue to do so it's amazing that she can even get through it and she does it so well. I think she has every...... every award she has coming to her, she deserves cause she's gonna get a lot of 'em. Full interview here

Much of the credit for how well these two click (and don't click) goes to Graham. Says Patterson, "She's better than the best actress I 've worked with." Full article here

LG: It’s happy. It’s the fifth year, it’s the longest I’ve ever had any job ever, like, of any kind, you know. So five years, that’s amazing, to me, for me, and my family. But its fun but now I have to start making out with people. You know, I’m making out now with, like, my long-time – where we were almost about to make out for five years and now we’re actually making out and it’s just very strange when you start making out with people when, like, they didn’t take you to dinner; they didn’t, like, you know; he didn’t have to, like, you know, really woo me at all. He just shows up and we - we make out.
E: So you’ve known this guy – he’s your past member?
LG: Yes, Scott Patterson, he’s in my cast and then we go from being like “Hey, what’s up?” *raises fist and punches the air like it’s someone’s arm* to like, you know, *make weird noise and motions like making out* it’s, like, weird. I don’t know why I was punching him before and I don’t know why this *repeats hand motions again from making visual* is how we’re making out, but that’s how it is.
E: Well, now I’m gonna watch it because, you know, *mimics Lauren’s make out hand motions* that. That sounds passionate. Um, but, you know, it is acting.
LG: Oh right.
E: You know, yeah.
LG: Yes, I know, but still, you get to know someone so well, you know, and it’s like, I mean, I don’t know, it’s a strange family there and suddenly…
E: Believe me, I get it, it’s just as weird as can be that you just make out with somebody. It’s “acting.” *Air quotes the word “acting”*
LG: Yeah, you know, like, no flowers or candy later, you know? It does make you feel kind of weird, like, “Ok, bye, see ya. Make out with you again tomorrow.”
E: Yeah.
LG: It’s weird.

Happy posting!:)

hehe this thread rocks.

In the everlasting words of Babette,


"won't their kids be gorgeous!"

I don't see why we wouldn't be allowed to have a thread like this, I'll keep it open.


Have all the fun you want Kay :lol: Just remember to keep it PG. ;)

Partially Graphic? ;)

So yeah, I guess that last photo is the only one we have of them together offset. Such a shame.

Does anyone else think that Lauren secretly wanted to use the word 'fantastic' instead of 'weird' in this last part of the Ellen interview?:

LG: Yeah, you know, like, no flowers or candy later, you know? It does make you feel kind of weird, like, “Ok, bye, see ya. Make out with you again tomorrow.”
E: Yeah.
LG: It’s weird.

Loving that new thread.
I think that they both are great actors. Maybe they "hook up" when the show ends. :)

Scott said once in a talk show, don´t remember which one, but it was in 2002, when asked when he and Lorelai will finally get together:
"Oh, you mean on the show?".

What´s that supposed to mean, Scott???? :eyebrows:

This thread is great *grins*
They are both awesome actors...And they would be great together *nods*

There was apart from this only one show when I thought that the actors matched as well as the characters did and those two actors got married and have a son now, so who knows. ;-) maybe my gut-feeling is right this time too *lol*

hmm i wanted to talk to cher first cause i´ve had the idea to open up a thread like this.

well now that we have a thread i dont need to open up another one..thanks for the thread :)

well i love that thread..the idea came to my mind a long time ago.. i would love to see them together and i love how they talk about one another in interwievs :D

I was really hoping for more interaction between SP and LG yesterday on the backstage special. They were cute when they were on though.

I don't see a problem with having a thread like this, we used to have a Luke and Lorelai here, back in the day.

Word. At first, I thought I sensed some hostility or something, but, Alexis knocked some sense into me.

They were fliiiirting. It was awkward flirting, too. Sort of like, "you're sooooo cute but I can't flirt too obviously with you here, but, later? Ohh yeah"

PG, you said, Cher? :look:

Great thread!! :D


They're so cute... I'd love to see them together... maybe the whole making out on screen will eventually put them together in real life. You know... once they get used to make out on screen they may want to 'rehearse' more..... :lol:

Dude, I think Lauren looked like she was in watchdog mode! What I mean is, Scott totally has flirted with every female reporter I've seen him with. Brooke Burke tells Scott he's the hunk, and he totally rebuffs her! Because obviously, Lauren would have loved to joust the little ****. Heh. :lol:

Dude, I totally noticed the lack of flirting with Brooke Burke from SP's side! He almost always flirts with the female interviewers.

Heh, LG staring at the SP's tattoo cracked me up on a second viewing, as well as the first. I think it's the fact that it's so obvious when she does it that makes it even funnier. It's not even like she's trying to hide it. Silly Lauren. As if we ever didn't think she wanted him. I was hoping that when SP was denying that he was a heartthrob, LG would chime in with, "shut up, Scott, don't bother denying it, we all know you are"

Btw, I loved LG's description of the L/L relationship. I know this isn't the L/L thread, as I even made a rule for it in the intro post, but, I just really liked her take of it. She was so serious and genuine when she was talking about it, too. Aww.

I know it will be hard, but at least try. ;)
