They did it. THEY DID IT!
Dec. 9th, 2008 02:12 amBoston Legal is over.
Denny Crane and Alan Shore are married.
This show has always walked the line between crazy comedy and heart-breaking pathos.
And it ended with Denny asking Alan to marry him because Denny has Alzheimer's and wants a spouse to make medical decisions, wants someone he can confess to if he does something wrong who can't be forced to testify against him, wants someone to leave his money to without gift or estate taxes.
There've been sleepovers, dancing, declarations of love, hand-holding, vows of commitment. They've been flamingos. They've taken vacations together, they've told people they're married.
And now they are. *throws confetti*
 
I don't think any other show will ever give me this.
Too bad they're not having sex. :-)

Date: Dec. 9th, 2008 06:13 pm (UTC)It's really refreshing, come to think of it. I get so freaking tired of the typical plots, like what they are doing on SGA with Rodney and Keller. The boy doesn't always have to get the girl.
I applaud the writers who came up with this senario, and BRAVO for pulling it off on network TV and for thinking outside the box. Its about damn time.
If SG-1 ended the same way I think I would have hit the floor in complete, trembling fangirl happiness. Oh well! At least we have the fic.
