"i like being a mess. it's who i am."
Jul. 23rd, 2008 12:31 pm"Boy to the World" remains one of the saddest hours in Ally McBeal history. As perfect an episode as it is, with its flawless blend of ridiculous humor and heartbreaking reality, it still hurts to watch. Wilson Cruz was amazing.
So, yeah. I'm getting my Ally McBeal on. I'm in love all over again. I miss having an on-screen female oddity to relate to. Liz Lemon is a superb facsimile, for sure, but Ally had an extra dash of absurdity that I grabbed hold of and loved. She's the original hot mess, and it sucks that she now only exists in overpriced import boxed sets. And torrents.
Also, the chemistry between Ally and John, both as co-workers and meant-to-be oddball couple, still warms me. Skipper and The Biscuit = ♥

This was supposed to be a potpourri post, but I was clearly overtaken by my renewed love for this show.
