IF... I was contemplating a kind of homage to bromance in television vid who should I include? I'm narrowing it down to TV bromance only. But any era.
So far I'm thinking:
Sam and Dean (of course!)
Peter and Neal (where the inspiration came from. How adorable are those two!?)
Sherlock and John (Sherlock)
Starsky and Hutch (by first bromance love <333)
Simon and Simon (My second bro bromance love (after The Hardy Boys that is...).
Bodie and Doyle (The Professionals - am I losing some of you by now? /o\)
Solo and Kuryakin (The Man from UNCLE)
Apollo and Starbuck (The original boys - yes, yes I'm showing my age... again. )
As you can see a lot of these are kinda *koff* ancient. So, who am I missing? I'm not thinking along the lines of say the guys from Leverage. That's more about the 5 of them rather than just the two.
Any thoughts...??

Thanks hun.

I'm telling mom!!!
no subject
Date: 2010-08-29 02:19 pm (UTC)And, it isn't done yet. And looking at this list it may never be...
There's no way I'd be able to get all this material,
Love learning about them all though and actually it's a vid I love to try.

Date: 2010-08-29 12:40 pm (UTC)I really do need to watch White Collar again. I watched the first one, but everyone seems to adore it, so I think it's worth a re-watch.
Cannot wait for your vid!
no subject
Date: 2010-08-29 02:25 pm (UTC)And yes. White Collar!! \o/ Not only is Neal GORGEOUS, the budding bromance between Peter and Neal is adorable. And - the story lines are pretty decent. :)
Hee! And don't hold your breath on the vid... looking at the list now it looks like A LOT of footage gathering. Bu I'm still liking the idea - so I still might pursue it. :)

Date: 2010-08-29 12:43 pm (UTC)Also Jim and Blair from the Sentinel.
no subject
Date: 2010-08-29 02:29 pm (UTC)And YES! Of course... Joe and Hoss. <3333 I should have remember Bonanza.
However, Sentinel I don't know. I'll have to investigate that one.
Thank you! <3

Date: 2010-08-29 02:50 pm (UTC)That said, the fic it inspired is amazing. I actually read fic in the fandom for nearly two years before I ever even saw an episode.
The premise features two guys who live together, work together, have pet names for each, and can't get any of their female relationships to take. Jim literally needs Blair to survive, yet because of a mistake he makes, Blair is murdered only to return to life when something of Jim lures him back. Blair sacrifices his honor and identity for Jim's sake, and Jim feels the weight of that sacrifice. There is hurt/comfort galore. The setup is the stuff of fannish dreams. I'm very fond of the fandom.
For your purposes, though, footage of the show isn't all that easy to come by. Only the first season (of three and a half) is on DVD. I found digitized footage of the other eps, and downloaded it, but that was years ago. I honestly don't recall where I got it from.
no subject
Date: 2010-08-29 03:10 pm (UTC)And for something like this (if I did go ahead with it), would only require a very short amount of footage. Seconds probably. There would probably something streaming somewhere I could, um.... *koff*... borrow... *g*.
Thanks so much darlin'.

She sent me one of her favourite Sentinel vids and that's what got me hooked! :)
Great to know there's some SBB coming! :) Thanks honey.

Date: 2010-09-02 03:19 am (UTC)I'm going to be seeking vidders who feel they really know the pairing and can provide quintessential bromance moments. I feel I couldn't to justice to a lot of the pairings.
So, yay! I'll keep you informed. :D
no subject
Date: 2010-09-01 09:12 pm (UTC)Sam and Michael from Burn Notice.
BJ and Hawkeye, MASH.
If you want to add girls, how about Laverne and Shirley, Xena and Gabrielle, Buffy and Willow?
no subject
Date: 2010-09-02 03:23 am (UTC)And I think girls would make for a whole new vid. I'm doubtful I will get all the male pairings I have so far.
Though speaking of L&S.. I wonder if Lenny and (*eek* can't remeber his name) would qualify? Then there's The Odd Couple... I wasn't thinking about sitcom pairings, but I suppose there would be lots of those as well..... Fonzie & Richie...
Ark!

Date: 2010-09-02 04:09 am (UTC)There were a lot of sitcom pairings. O.O
