I was just having no clue how to begin with my recommendation of Coupling, when suddenly I got a question: how to say 打吊瓶? I checked with Genius Kane, who initiated the recommendation and she didn’t have the answer, but, she recoiled with a stunning question: “coupling里沒有？”

 

Haha! She has been meeting Coupling, the most classic drama I have ever seen for only 2 days! But she already has got such a response! What? A life encyclopaedia? Exactly! The first reason I recommend this drama to you, is its real-life focusing-faith. Every site you come across in this drama is as real as you can imagine- of course excluding those ancient and dreamy scenes out of dramatic needs.

 

But that is far from the main reason I want everybody interested in the life in UK to see it. The main reason, is its unique sense of humour! So unique that it is even a bit hard to appreciate it at first; so unique that it always goes to extreme to disclose the purest emotion of human being; so unique that you can easily condone any disinclination caused by those unusual sex jokes simply because you would already have been amusedly out of breath! It is truly so unique that you can take a real deep look at this wonderful people, with even a few smart choices of words.

 

The whole drama is a piece of art, and the creator Steven Moffat based the characters of Steve and Susan on himself and his wife (producer Sue Vertue), as he explains: "I have described the series as being 'my life as told by a drunk'. Like most writers, I write about what has happened to me as that involves the minimum amount of research. As it happens, Sue and I are married; so I imagined a scenario about what would have happened if we had met ten years earlier, and took it from there!"

 

I could not come up with any better descriptions of this TV series, but one thing is what at least I can assure you, this Steven, he is never exhausted in brooding weird, bizarre, peculiar, ludicrous but also tremendously entertaining and educational thoughts and ways of telling you so!

 

What is the definition of Classic? My version is something old but never out-of-dated, and whenever you review it, you can still gain something new and novel and cutting edge from it, like the Bible, like New Concept English~, like, “Apparently”, the COUPLING!

 

Rob Belcher's review has made a superb epitome of this drama, he wrote: "this show will speak to anyone who's ever dated, been in a relationship, or just noticed that men and women are different creatures."

 

I sincerely wish a perpetual life of Steven Moffat! I recommend this Sexy fairy tale weaved by 6 thirtysomething lovely actors to you, you would never feel losing your capital if you try to memorize every detail in it, trust me!

摘抄一段"the girl with one heart"那集中，Steve對于衛(wèi)生間之于男人的重大意義所發(fā)表的重要演說：
We are men! Throughout history, we have always needed, in times of difficulty, to retreat to our caves. It so happens that in this modern age, our caves are fully plumbed. The toilet is, for us, the last bastion, the final refuge, the last few square feet of man-space left to us! Somewhere to sit, something to read, something to do, and who gives a damn about the smell? Because that, for us, is happiness. Because we are *men.* We are different. We have only one word for soap. We do not own candles. We have never seen anything of any value in a craft shop. We do not own magazines fill of pictures of celebrities with all their clothes *on*. When we have conversations, we actually take it in turns to talk! But we have not yet reached that level of earth-shattering boredom and inhuman despair that we would have a haircut *recreationally*. We don't know how to get excited about... really, *really* boring things, like ornaments, bath oil, the countryside, vases, small churches. I mean, we do not even know what, *what* in the name of God's *ass* is the purpose of pot-pourri! Looks like breakfast, smells like your auntie! Why do we need that? So please, in this strange and frightening world, allow us one last place to call our own. This toilet, this blessed pot, this... fortress of solitude. You girls, you may go to the bathroom in groups of two or more. Yet we do not pass comment. We do not make judgment. That is your choice. But we men will always walk the toilet mile... alone

I’m a bloke. I’m supposed to like them. We’re born like that. We like naked women as asoon as we’re pulled out of one. Halfway down the birth canal, we’re already enjoying the view.

Look, it is the four pillars of the male heterosexual psyche. We like naked women, stockings, lesbians, and sean connery best as james bond, because that is what being a boy is. And if you don’t like it darling, join a film collective.

I want to spend the rest of my life with the woman at the end of the table. But that doesn’t stop me wanting to see several thousand more naked bottoms before I die. Because that’s what being a bloke is.

When man invented fire he didn’t say.”let’s cook!” he said,”great, now we can see naked bottoms in the dark.” As soon as caxton invented the printing press, we were using it to make pictures of naked bottoms. We’ve turned the internet into an enormous international database of naked bottoms.


看到這之后就真正愛上這部劇了。

>>現(xiàn)在重新看這部劇，發(fā)現(xiàn)果然像樓下某位同學所說是S1E4里出現(xiàn)的，同一集里還有另外兩位男生提到的對于lesbian porn的看法我也記下來了。

　　重新看coupling還是那么好笑，又記了兩段jeff和patrick對于lesbian porn的看法，大概能回答不少女生的困惑。
　　
　　jeff：oh, wouldn't that be great.being a lesbian.all the advantages of being a man but with less embarrassing genitals. plus, every time you have sex, there's four breasts! two guest breasts, and two you can take home afterwards.oh it's bloody brilliant!
　　
　　patrick：i like films with lesbians in them, 'cause it's nice to think that there are attracive women who can't find a boyfriend.
　　
　　BTW，patrick在E4的發(fā)型真的是soooooo gay。
