The Screw Ups [J&A+1] #70: "They both met each other in this place of wanting to become better people. They bring out the b e s t in each other."~JJ
the screw ups #70 "LOVE IS WANTING TO HELP SOMEBODY BE THE B E S T VERSION OF THEMSELVES." Welcome to the Juliette Barnes♦Avery BarkleyAppreciation Thread ● ● ● The love story that went from S T R A N G E R S to F R I E N D S H I P to S O U L M A T E S STRANGERS they were kindred spirits even when they did not realize it. J u l i e t t e B a r n e s was the girl with who had never known what it meant to be truly loved or chosen as worthy; she looked for validation in her self worth in her career and in men she used. A v e r y B a r k l e y was the guy who would do anything to garner success in his music career. The first time these two interact is in the pilot, backstage at the Opry. Juliette turns the corner and bumps into Avery with a force that knocks them both over a little. Complete strangers, and yet they take notice of the other, as Juliette stuns him still with her cheeky "We should try that again sometime, only s l o w e r." They don't even know each other's names, but they might as well be the only two there. Juliette continues to suffer heartbreak after heartbreak, looking desperately for proof that love exists. Avery continues to look for love and validation through his music. They move on separate paths at neck-breaking speeds, until they both reach the end of their roads. Juliette finds out her manager and love had conned her out of a great sum of money, and Avery burns his masters and gets blacklisted around Nashville. They both have no one to turn to. Out of desperation, Avery joins Juliette's tour as a roadie, sinking into invisibility until by chance he gets called upon by Juliette to fill in as her guitar player. And though they are still strangers, he sets the precedent that he will be there for Juliette in her time of need. Even after the performance, he sits with her as she gets drunk and tells him that fairytales don't exist. Her guard is down, and he is able to see her brokeness; she doesn't hide it from him. And when she asks him to come home with her, he refuses, creating a bond of trust that neither realize the weight of at the time. One of the best things to happen on Nashville has been the pairing of Avery and Juliette. They're the shining light on the series at this point and are simply delightful in every way. Their chemistry is real and they have staying power. It's terrific the way they support each other without jealousy...what makes Avery and Juliette work so well is they're the two characters who have grown more than any others. Their arcs have been from spoiled and nasty brats to mature and kind-hearted adults. They understand each other completely." theshippers honoraryshippers "She's finally in a relationship with somebody that she actually really, really cares about and it's one that was born out of a friendship. This relationship with Avery has different stakes for her than any other relationshipshe's ever had. This is someone that's been changing her slowly. And again, if you can remember back to the pilot, she bumps into Avery in the hallway at the Grand Ole Opry when he's with Scarlett, and she says, "We oughtta try that again sometime, only slower," getting them together was a real slow burn.We knew that we were going there from the pilot. And now it's become a relationship our fans are really invested in." Season 1 Top Five Moments

Of his two main TV characters, Lucky and Avery, I'm really not sure I've ever disagreed with him on any major point, which is just beautiful. LOL.

how many times can he mention how much J/A make each other better people? He needs to start forwarding these memos to the writers, because CLEARLY they have no idea what people like to see/hear.

The two times I've known JJ wrote the scene (or co-wrote it), it's been SO MUCH BETTER than the other crap on the show that day, lol (on GH, I mean). They should let him write his own dialogue, especially with crap scripts.

eh I think they forgot about the making each other better people line. not action wise, but definitely dialogue wise. They wouldn't have had Rayna spit it out again if they had remembered.
