Oh Netflix, how much joy you bring me with your unexpected new TV series… what have I most recently (re)discovered?

Felicity! Otherwise known as Keri Russell’s breakout performance and fast track to stardom. I remember thinking the show was pretty dramatic and cheesy the first time around, but it IS oddly addicting as I’ve been watching it the last few weeks. I have gotten 3 or 4 episodes in now, and already I’m oddly overwhelmed by all of the love triangles (and quadrangles). Even for college co-eds, this is hard to keep track of!

In the interest of using my beloved bamboo tablet for something completely useless, here’s a breakdown:

Okay, okay, so Elena’s self-righteousness isn’t EXACTY a leading male character… but it does get in the way of romance! Har har har.

What are some other classic TV love triangles?

• Ross/Rachel/Emily on Friends
• Nancy Botwin/Andy Botwin/All of Nancy’s lovers (love polygon?) on Weeds
• Marissa Cooper/Luke/Ryan or Luke/Marissa/Julie Cooper or Seth/Summer/Mr Sparkles or Julie Cooper/Luke/Caleb Cohen or Seth/Summer/Zach or Kirsten/ Sandy/ skanky coworker of Sandy’s or Caleb/ Julie Cooper/ Caleb’s work or Jimmy Cooper/ Kirsten Cohen/Julie Cooper/Hayley Cohen (eeeww this is getting incestuous)…  on the OC

…urrg.. love triangle has scrambled my brain…

Obviously, this is getting increasingly complicated as I try to list them. Sooo… help me out! What are your favorite TV or Movie (or any kind of) love triangles?
