'Sex in the City' and 'Friends' finales
There are all these finales on now which is good because they are good for study breaks. I don't watch Sex in the City all the time but watched the finale because I wanted to spot the places in Paris that I've been to in the show and also look at Carrie's very expensive, beautiful clothes.
I found both finales pretty unsatisfying and a bit boring but I guess they had to end it like that to make everyone happy. Everyone lives happily ever after ... Carrie and Big together, Charlotte gets her baby, Samantha finds someone that she likes not just for sex, Miranda shows "love" ... it was quite sappy. I found the earlier episodes funnier when it was more trivial and fun.
Friends was very cliche with Ross running to the airport and just when Rachel was about to board the plane, he declares how much he loves her. Monica and Chandler get twins, Phoebe has a good bf, Rachel and Ross together, the only person who isn't paired up is Joey. Except they are making a series called 'Joey' next year so I guess he'll find his true love then.
They all basically suggest that in order to be happy, you fall in love with the guy you've known longest and who has always been there for you and you have babies. Sex in the City was so girl power, go-you-independent-woman like but in the finale, they have to have a nice boy and babies to be truly satisfied and happy in life.
The OC season finale is on tonight! Yay! I love the show. Very good looking people, very unrealistic .. but a good watch! The tricky thing is that Ryan has known Theresa the longest and judging by the above finales, the partner you've known the longest ends up being your true love. But in the OC, Theresa is portrayed more as an intruder into Ryan and Marissa's relationship. So that's tricky. I'm guessing in the finale of the OC, Ryan and Marissa will end up together but tonight in the season finale, Ryan might end up with Theresa!! Because they gotta have something that will make us eagerly anticipate the start of the season again.
