I've requested to be buried because I want my body to be given to nature.
I want it to be snacked on by plants and animals the way I have snacked on plants and animals throughout my life.
You don't love the people you love because they do want you want, but because of who they are.
我很喜欢每集开头josh做饭的部分,很有生活感,同时食物的色彩搭配也让人感到很舒服。虽然我对漂亮却不喜欢吃的食物无感,因为自己还是会认为食物的话,味道更重要啊!仅仅被好看的外表吸引而想要品尝,结果却在尝到的瞬间感到失望的话,比起吃看起来很普通,但是在吃的瞬间觉得很美味,果然还是后者更有幸福感。
第一集,josh被女友提出要分手,还没从失恋的感伤走出就接到妈妈吞药片企图自杀的通知。很多事情都没有做好心理准备好去接受和处理,突然出现的贴心男朋友和即将因要照顾母亲而搬去住一起的事情纠缠在一起。在医院安顿好母亲之后,被父亲送回家。只有那么一小刻允许自己在门前坐着,尽情地悲伤一刻钟。站起来,走进家里假装没事。在知道Geoffrey没有离开同时还帮自己整理一切有些感动。但是生活已经压得自己喘不过气来便自然而然地接受了他的好。
第二集,josh告诉Geoffrey他害怕屁股被塞东西,Geoffrey很高兴josh不是因为拒绝自己才总是推开自己。从第二集开始就进入了情侣模式。josh是第一次进入新世界,他会很在意外界对他的看法。有时,他会很刻薄地调侃John的感情生活。有时,他是真得意识到Geoffrey对他的好,但是他不是那个会勇敢迈出步伐去抓住对方的手的人。
同性剧里永远会告诉我们:爱上谁不是自己可以控制的,追随本心,不要去用异样的眼光去看待别人的特别,最重要的是爱他们原本的样子。
我并非对同性感兴趣,只是好奇亲友对于原本的我的看法。便询问“如果我喜欢同性,你怎么看?”,没有开放的“我可以接受”。现实是:现在2018年,同性还是会被歧视的。就算现在很多年轻人都很开放,觉得同性恋没什么。但是当事人根本就不在意无关紧要的陌生人的眼光和看法,他们在意的是亲友怎么看待他们的特殊。这才是所有同性剧想要传递的,family可以爱原本的我吗?
第五六集,josh和Geoffrey分手。Geoffrey说得很对,大多数时候josh表现得像个混蛋,总是忽略他的感受,只有自己需要的时候才会想起他。但是作为观众以josh为第一人称代入的时候,是和爸爸一样觉得Geoffrey很适合josh,因为他帅气、体贴、直率、真挚、善于倾听。最重要的是:他是真的爱josh。
这次看已经是二刷了,第一遍看的时候觉得josh和Geoffrey没有在一起很可惜。毕竟,我是happy ending爱好者,所以第一次看的时候,结局我是非常不能接受的。但是当自己经历过一段失败的感情之后就能理解最后的结局了。Josh其实是个自私、自卑的人,虽然他和Geoffrey之间的相处有时候也很sweet,但是就像Geoffrey说的“你只有孤独和有需要的时候才会想起我”。
在需要表明两人之间的关系的时候,josh是退缩的。在感情上,josh是自利且自卑的,他喜欢帅气的Geoffrey,他享受Geoffrey对他的好。但是也像第一集他和John的对话说的,他会觉得被Geoffrey这么帅气的人喜欢,他是不是隐瞒了什么不可告人的秘密。
最后,生活没有标准答案。Maybe,现实的josh主动一点,他会和现实的Geoffrey有后续故事,又或者就像电视剧一样有第二第三季。就算和这个真的爱你的人此刻能够继续下去,但是后面的故事里就不会还有什么变故吗?
所以,most importantly,追随本心,你的快乐才会让你真正的快乐。
这个剧真的很值得多看几遍,剧情很散但是很多细节和线索都可以把多每一集为数不多的场景串起来。josh的人生观完全在剧情细节里就能看出来,没有强行煲鸡汤。当然如果你要以一个社会合理性的标准去评价josh ,他绝对是一个不折不扣自我自利(但不自私)的巨婴,但我想这也是大家喜欢他的原因,得体礼貌的人看起来应该不会让人觉得可爱。Geoffrey很棒不用说咯,nice look、sensitive on relationship and humanity as a normal young man(cute)。看第三遍,每一遍都会发现一些小细节,每一集的节奏都很好,有起伏。但每一季的衔接可能会有点生猛。
优点1:情节轻松自如。老是有自己漏了一集没看的错觉……感觉编剧想到啥就写啥。就算这么跳脱,写出来的东西还是没有隔阂,这也是一种才能吧otz 不过,这样写也能看懂的原因,大概是因为它是一部没什么大情节的喜剧吧。而且编剧就是导演,感觉会比较能hold住这个问题。
优点2:生活化的喜剧。在哔哩哔哩上它有两个标签,一个“治愈”,一个“致郁”,这都是真的……我想到了《阳光小美女》,它们是同一种类型的喜剧。用平常甚至搞笑的语调,去说一个无奈又带点哀愁的故事。它说得那么平淡,这确实就是生活啊。
然后我还担忧一个问题,我觉得这种片子其实是“一次性”的东西。如果创作人只专注于讲自己的故事,只留意自己心境相关的内容,那么他一生就只能讲好一个故事。他说不了别人的故事。
Is Josh Thomas's show too gay for ABC1?
Colin Vickery & Darren Devlyn From: National Features February 27, 2013 8:18AM
IS Please Like Me too gay? That is what Josh Thomas is asking as he prepares for the debut of his new TV comedy.
Please Like Me was originally set to screen on ABC1 last year but has been shunted into digital channel ABC2.
Thomas plays twentysomething Josh who lives with best mate Thomas (Thomas Ward) and, at first, is in a steady relationship with girlfriend Claire (Caitlin Stasey).
Claire splits with Josh, telling him that he is obviously gay. His despair is short-lived when young hunk Geoffrey (Wade Briggs) enters the scene.
Geoffrey wants to get physical with Josh. Cue lots of man-on-man kissing, bed scenes, and jokes about sex.
Later, Josh is forced to move back into the family home after his divorced mum Rose (Debra Lawrence) overdoses.
Please Like Me has a sweetness that sets it apart from other boundary-pushing comedies such as Chris Lilley's Angry Boys and Summer Heights High which happily found a home on ABC1.
The ABC insists the gay content isn't the reason Please Like Me was shunted to ABC2, where it is sure to attract a smaller audience.
"The tone of Please Like Me and the issues discussed are principally aimed at an audience in their early 20s," an ABC spokesperson says.
"Since ABC1 is largely a channel of mass appeal that tends to attract an audience with an average age the other side of 35, we decided the best home for Please Like Me was ABC2."
Thomas isn't convinced.
"They told me it (the switch to ABC2) was a compliment. I don't believe them," Thomas says. "I don't know if what they were really saying was, 'Josh the show is a bit s---' or, 'Josh the show has too much suicide and gay sex in it'.
"People have suggested to me that (too gay) is why they did it (put it on ABC2). I would be shocked if that's why but I also wouldn't be."
If Thomas is right, this wouldn't be the first time networks have become squeamish about gay content.
In 2009, Aussie Melissa George played bisexual intern Dr Sadie Harris on Grey's Anatomy.
There was speculation her character would have a full-blown screen romance with Callie Torres (Sara Ramirez). The show's creator, Shonda Rhimes, changed tack after George started filming. George initially signed for between eight and 11 episodes, but finished early.
Her exit followed that of Brooke Smith, who played lesbian Dr Erica Hahn in the medical drama. Smith was dropped after her character consummated her relationship with Callie.
Gay lobby group, the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, expressed its concern about the short-lived nature of the Callie-Erica storyline, which initially had been hailed as a breakthrough for mainstream American television.
That same year, Channel 7 censored a lesbian kiss between policewoman Charlie Buckton (Esther Anderson) and deckhand Joey Collins (Katie Bell) in Home and Away.
Seven's decision came after complaints about the lesbian storyline from conservative lobby groups.
"The plot lines that young kids and teenagers should be presented with should be about really authentic relationships that are not just sexualised," Pro-Family Perspectives director Angela Conway said.
Anderson had said she had no problem with the scene.
"I don't think it's like I'm lifting the lid on something they don't already know about," Anderson said. "To me, there's no difference love's love."
US producers have used the controversy surrounding lesbian kissing scenes to boost ratings in TV shows. First there was Amanda Donohoe and Michele Green in LA Law, then Jennifer Aniston's Rachel kissing Winona Ryder's Melissa on Friends and Mischa Barton going girl-on-girl in The O.C.
In the late '70s, Billy Crystal played gay son Jodie Dallas on Soap, but he later admitted to early misgivings about taking the role.
In 1997, comedian Ellen DeGeneres went public with her homosexuality on The Oprah Winfrey Show.
There was an early backlash but DeGeneres is now one of the most successful and admired women on American television.
Number 96's gay lawyer Don Finlayson (Joe Hasham) was a groundbreaking character on Australian TV. Water Rats featured another notable gay character, Sgt Helen Blakemore (Toni Scanlan).
Neighbours introduced gay character Chris Pappas (James Mason) in 2011. To its credit, the Ten soapie didn't use Chris's sexuality to shock.
This was no cynical ratings grab. Instead, the soapie dug deeper to show that Chris's sexuality was only one aspect of his personality.
"The good thing about Chris is that he is an ordinary person who is a mechanic and happens to be gay," Mason has said.
http://www.heraldsun.com.au/entertainment/tv-radio/is-joshs-show-too-gay-for-abc1/story-e6frf9ho-1226586521979这可能是我看过的最致郁的喜剧了。听到Josh和Simon amstell有些相似才去看的,没有想到立刻就爱上了这个全身上下都gay里gay气着的小可爱。他并没有想刻意的表现精神疾病这个话题,只是尽自己所能去展现他的生活。忙碌平淡却总有一些小曲折的生活。每个人都在努力的演绎着属于自己的部分。结尾实在令人感动。妈妈说,我并不想自杀,我只是吃了这些药。后来想到了你。Josh竭力抑制住颤抖的声音说,你知道你死了我将永远带着负罪感活着吧。
戏不错,男主很可爱,Geoffrey不错,拍得相当幽默,很写实,相当喜欢
好好看啊
结构过于散慢的喜剧,很多地方都想快进。不过男主和小男友这条线真是太亮了,现实里哪儿去找这样一个又帅又专情、体贴加超MAN的男友啊?结局很唏嘘,但又似乎必然如此——我想我可能不会爱你...
Josh的脸就像那本畅销书名字:《我是个年轻人,我心情不太好》。他那种两手像企鹅翅膀一样翘在腿侧、跳跳蹦蹦的走路姿势蠢萌蠢萌的。Geo是无死角美男。第三集的小细节:Geo和Josh在Tom家过夜,然后一大早全家人去教堂。Geo穿的灰格子衬衫很眼熟,进度条拉回去一看,咦,那衬衫就是Josh前一天穿的
MY NEW FAVORITE SHOW!!!!!!!!!!
澳洲版“分手后”,只是各方面都略逊一筹,没有足够的代入感,也没有合理化的剧情让人信服,男主的外貌和性格都让人生厌。
我需要/想念/理解/支持/想干你,都不是我爱你。
好喜欢Geoffrey!!!好可爱!!!傻傻的!!!Josh真令人讨厌!Geoffrey deserves a better man!这个就这么结束了?!G做了一个还算明智的选择!
台词写的很棒,幽默感就像在看一场脱口秀,情节松散,小男友太萌。★★★
没想到这个清新温暖治愈的故事拍摄地竟然在猫本,好喜欢Josh萌萌的澳洲口音还有他的心态,六集看下来真的觉得蛮美好的。。也不知道会不会有第二季了,不过会一直持续关注Josh Thomas这个人的。
剧情清淡,意外的看得下去。1.呆到深处自然萌,男主性格像徐国(担心你哟)2.澳洲英语很有趣啊,既有BE的撇呛,又有AE的卷舌,还挺好听的。
又干净又温暖,真的棒死啦。
说温情喜剧的你们绝对都是阳光明媚好少年。明明色彩明亮,但看得人就是一股子孤独和无可奈何。疏离、隔膜、感情匮乏、无处安放的心,就像G最后说Josh的话——你只有在alone的时候才会想起我。生活里有那么多矛盾凌驾于爱之上,又总是输给爱。这也许就是为什么我们一直唾弃人生却又总是努力振作活下去。
All I want to have and want to be. Josh Thomas自编自演的这部剧很容易让人想起Simon Amstell的在外婆家,希望也能像在外婆家一样推出第二季。
josh个白眼狼!!!!就会欺负geoffrey!!!
amazing! 前三集又软又萌后三集笑点泪点萌点虐点大乱炖 josh太棒!
生活会慢慢露出它的獠牙.开初只觉幽默,总嫌没厚味.后半则诸矛盾上浮碰撞变形再沉没,依然懒散气,却让人目不转睛.回头看看整个故事结构平衡巧致,角色在其中空虚着不清醒,又因诚挚而实在地活着.伤感轻轻漂浮.调度用心,漂亮细节很多.叙事节奏也有意思,尤其每个"漏看一集?"的开头.音乐不错,竟听到久违的5678
又可爱又真实 又好笑又伤感。请拍第二季!!!!!!!!!快点拍快点拍快点拍(敲碗~~~)!!!!!josh和geo请在一起!!!在一起在一起在一起(敲碗~~~)!!!!!!姐姐告诉乃们!乃们这个样子是做不了朋友的!!!!!!
虽然长一副50岁巨婴的脸,但是男主真的是越看越可爱,每次看到就散发出姨妈般的痴笑,想冲上去揉头发。剧情松散,集数篇幅也短,整部片子不强灌鸡汤,要说的都在影片细节里。
4星半 突然发现散漫的结构+轻戏剧性完全是我的那杯茶 看似零碎的故事和时而蹦出的精妙台词 有些设定虽然解释不通 Geo这么就会喜欢上Josh呢 但一切又不疾不徐地发展得合乎情理 Josh对Geo确实没那么动情 他懒散被动自私逆来顺受缺乏判决力又害怕寂寞 可我又在Josh身上看到无数自己的影子 才觉得格外贴切
