This is odd but with all these epic bromances on tv why not epic sismance once in a while? The only show I can think of that had one was Ab Fab. Sad huh?

[flowrs4ophelia.livejournal.com]

IKR? I'm sure part of the reason it isn't even an established cliche like bromances is because strong and open affection between women wouldn't even be seen as unique or special. But generally we're just way behind actually having a lot of works with any relationship with no man needed in the picture as the sole focus.

Even incredibly close friendships between women and men that are just friendships but have that non-romantic-life-partner vibe are practically non-existent. The only one I can think of that's kind of "bromance"-like is Mal and Zoe in Firefly, but that's not even close to being at the forefront of the story the way Kirk & Spock or Sam & Dean or Denny Crane & Alan Shore are.

[icanhashearth.livejournal.com]

And whenever a show does have that epic bond between a man and a woman, it almost always becomes romantic if the show goes on long enough - or even if they don't get married, there is occasional sex/a date/cosmic mix-ups that prevent them from dating/explicit, overt in-show acknowledgement that they have romantic feelings for each other.

Booth and Brennan from Bones are the most obvious example, and I think the leads from Castle as well, though I don't follow that.

[finmagik.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I've had epic friendships with women. I'd like to see portrayals in media. The thing is in the past women would get married off and have to leave their female friends to raise families and be a wife. Hell even then it was great to have friends because they'd support you with that. but men write things.

[ncc-gqmf.livejournal.com]

There are totally good sismances (hate that word, but love the concept) on TV! Cougar Town probably has the one that's most similar to the jokey fake-gay bromance thing (they joke about getting married to each other, etc.), but there are also lovely female friendships on Parks and Rec, Up All Night, Community to some extent... and dramas like Revenge and The Vampire Diaries also have pretty tight ones, albeit maybe less healthy.

[finmagik.livejournal.com]

Ah, yes I forgot I don't watch all that much tv.

[ncc-gqmf.livejournal.com]

Probably not a good idea to be like I KNOW THEY DON'T EXIST, then.

You might like Cougar Town. You should give it a try, anyway, if you like that kind of thing (but maybe after the first few episodes... the show REALLY changes around episode 5 or so).

[finmagik.livejournal.com]

Well I just like scifi/fantasy things and British things. very few American sit-coms amuse me. And all of them have been cancelled or gone off the air.

[ncc-gqmf.livejournal.com]

I was just figuring if you like Ab Fab, you might like another show about middle-aged lady friends who drink too much wine and judge people. It's not as mean-spirited, but Christa Miller's character is clearly a descendant of the Ab Fab ladies.

But blah blah easy target American sitcoms are stupid, yawn.

[finmagik.livejournal.com]

Well, I try to watch them, I do. But Most of them leave me cold. I did like Scrubs and Arrested Development is like crack.

[ncc-gqmf.livejournal.com]

It's actually by the guy who did Scrubs, Bill Lawrence, and one of the stars was a regular on that show.

[finmagik.livejournal.com]

I'll Netlfix it. As my TV doesn't work.
