also adore how harry's relationship with maddie is filled with so much warmth and tenderness, which i think is rare given the loner character type that bosch fits into. good adaptation choice to bring forward maddie's existence :)

catching up with bosch and i am in love with all things honey chandler. also have a soft spot for detective shows where grunt work is king. no overblown action sequences - just harry bosch and his endless stubborn grind

leverage: redemption sends noah wyle to seduce a man for a con. his daughter accidentally walks in on them, and now believes her dad is bisexual. she is so happy for him. it's never addressed whether he did tell her that he's actually doing a bit of crime. 10/10 no notes ace episode

The Wheel of Time is very good at maximising nuance with little time. This shot of Moiraine only lasts a second - in one out of a thousand futures, she had Siuan's Tairen's tattoos, testifying to a devotion so deep that she left nobility for a life on the river, and loved it.

On a trivial note, I love this shot in The Wheel of Time's finale. It's so gorgeous.

The Wheel of Time, "He Who Comes With The Dawn" (3x08)

"The truth is, I love Moiraine. I have always loved her, and I always will love her. If you stay here, you will burn in this Tower. But I will never burn, because I am Siuan Sanche, daughter of the river. Water itself. And I defy you."

Great character bit from The Wheel of Time S3 finale, where Lanfear cannot understand the abiding and unconditional love that Moiraine has for Siuan & vice versa. Her condescension transforms into surprise (O'Keeffe is extremely good) - she's never experienced a love like that, incapable of it.

before the wheel of time's devastating finale, i'd like to praise the sheer courage to write a lesbian marriage filled with so much complexity and love when it breaks entirely with narrative fidelity. so much that the showrunner even received homophobic death threats prior to the show's premiere

Lovely scene in The Wheel of Time 3.06. Moiraine indirectly tells Rand how she feels about her mortality (cleverly phrased as a question about something else) & this is the closest we get to a confession as to how much life has taken from her. Rosamund Pike steals the screen.

that scene had me choking too lmfao

"It’s been so hard to think about any future beyond these four walls. And when I think about us, where we’ll end up, it's in a bamboo hut on the river, like my father and I had."

what if you're a LESBIAN and you're in a FORBIDDEN relationship and you had to send your WIFE to EXILE and you smell her letters in private because you're so LONELY ...

this happened to my bestie siuan sanche on the wheel of time

"the borderlands were an unforgiving place, even before it was overrun ... but in that hardness, our people created such beauty - festivals, poetry, dancing."

"what do you miss the most?"

"laughter."

lesbian titanic on the wheel of time, it is more likely than you think (one of the few scenes that made me smile)

Three seasons in, and what The Wheel of Time does so tenderly is the lesbian romance between Moiraine and Siuan. Heartbreaking but not tragic — a love so pure and abiding that you believe it will endure across lifetimes. Redeeming and expansive.

"And I will wait for you. Every time, every time."

Latest episode of The Wheel of Time is a beautiful comedown from the intensity of Rhuidean. No prophecies, only love and longing and dreams of what could have been before the inevitable heartbreak.

"You have to embrace the bitter and the sweet. So you never forget which is which."

"As the girl utters her last words, Kerry Weaver is drawn into her confidence, a rapt participant in the spectacle of transformation that points to the transformative possibility of every emergency — the embrace of death and lesbian love." (Heller, "The Labors of Lesbian Desire in ER" )

ER, "All in the Family" (2000)

Two scenes:

- Corday removes Lucy's tube, and she says, "thank you." That's all she wanted to say to her surgeon after being horrifically stabbed, because that's who Lucy is.

- Weaver throws up after cutting up Lucy. We have never seen her lose control. Not once.

1996 in ER Season 3. Kerry Weaver, a disabled lesbian, goes to great lengths to make sure her HIV+ colleague, Jeanie, is treated fairly. Out of everyone in Jeanie's life, it's Kerry who looks out for her and offers compassion. Groundbreaking stuff.
