请喜欢我第一季

josh本质上就不是一个快乐的人,那一面只是演给自己和别人看的,有时候就算是朋友也不能让他看见自己的悲伤胆怯和迷失,因为不能总是让他们为自己担心。在身份转变后不久、在依旧迷茫和恐慌的时候遇见热情似火攻势甚猛的geoffrey,对双方可能都不会是一件幸事。有人曾经说过,同性是一个求异存同的过程,但如果相同点不够多,那么求异也就没有了意义。为什么恋爱受挫的人们总是会觉得初恋是伤人最深的,因为印记太深不容易忘记。其实别人对自己的伤害永远是有限的,我们的伤害更多是来自自身成长过程中的阵痛,真正的痛彻心扉。在伤痛中成长没有任何人是愿意的,可不经历伤痛也就不能成长,因为在阳光中更容易迷失,只有在黑暗中才能保持清醒,拼命挣扎着去寻找出路。对josh来讲,geoffrey是他在这个新世界的初恋,他对这个新身份其实充满了恐惧和不安,他不敢去尝试更进一步,对方的攻势越猛反而越是让他觉得有一张大网紧紧的罩住了自己,所以他拼命的想破网而出,呼吸外面新鲜的空气。梦里不知身是客,一晌贪欢,但做梦的人总是会醒来,然后在某一个未知的站点下车,结束这一趟他认为是错误的旅行;而对geoffrey来说,他想要的是一个长期伴侣，josh显然做不到。这样的忠犬其实很稀缺,一般情况下是他去保护别人,在他受伤时他也像个大狗狗一样卖卖萌需要安慰,因为人都是很脆弱的,仅有的一米阳光如果不被珍视,那剩下的就只有黑暗了。忠犬性格的人最不想的就是在一次次的伤害过后,成为无家可归的野狗,逼迫自己学会咬人来保护自己。他对josh只是不懂得一个度的把握,但本质上他值得去找一个真正的避风港湾。人生很多时候如果把一些人的遇见次序换一下,结果可能会大不相同,但没有这样的如果,如果不能给对方真正的幸福,就及时放手成全双方吧,因为我们都值得更合适的人。你,只属于远方。

早早就下载了这剧，第一集啃了好多次没啃完，在电脑里放了有好些日子，大概一两年的样子，最近剧荒或懒于下载新剧翻出来看。
Geff第一次出场，对他无感，感觉有点受？而且不是喜欢的那种型。但真的是愈来愈耐看的那种，后面被他感动到不行，身材也好，颜也好，都很耐看。性格，其实不知道如果遇到和他同类型格，自己会是什么反应，可能遇到过类似？一边写似乎在发现，我经历过这里事情的感觉。
有些粘人的话，我想我也会跑掉吧。并且，事实是我跑掉过。
Footy那段，觉得他的年纪正好是为球员欢呼呐喊且依旧可爱的时候罢，也许依旧是看颜，且，footy没有Josh描述那般无聊好伐。虽然的确挺无聊的，而且常有Aussie喜欢硬生生的解释说，soccer, what you call football，在我的认知里，football就是football好不好，不是所谓我们称作足球的东西。是你们非要把你们玩的运动叫做我们的足球诶。又偏了。
Josh的第一印象没有了，虽然不是好看也不是可爱的那种型，但绝对不是反感。越看到后面，越不喜欢这个人设，导演自编自导自演的希望不是他真实写照？相由心生的感觉，就是越到后面越无法接受他的长相，想从各个方面攻击这个人设，明白那些某某黑的感受的感觉。
他在迪斯科搭讪或被搭讪，然后被耍时，心里感觉很爽呢。不开心后打给Geff，每次都是在需要时想起Geff。在本季最后一集的最后几分钟，一直祈祷Geff不要心软不要复合。我想这是我第一次又这样的希望，而不是一个大团圆的结局。不，他们没在一起才是大团圆的结局。
佩吉姨妈真的好可爱。那么虔诚的教徒，在神父发表恐同言论后，为自己的外甥站出来说话，反驳然后离开，真的好可爱好暖心。

剧中几次闪现的河景，让我想，他们是不是在Dockland拍，是不是Chapel St上的那些酒吧餐馆。好多也没有很多的一些想念的感觉。最后佩吉姨妈的Vicroad考试，让我觉得，应该就是在墨尔本拍摄的吧？毕竟全维州除了墨尔本也没有其他地方有摩天大楼了。

还有剧中的和Mae有关的玩笑，和种族有关的玩笑，可能是剧情需要？但是好恶心呢。

作为一部同性恋题材的片子，它少了对社会的反思，多的是人与人之间情感的交流。亲情友情爱情，虽然个性不同，但是在相遇的过程中，每个人都因为他人有了些许变化。
这剧的风格一个字概括：萌。从画面的质感，情节的设置，再到演员的表现，无不给人一种可爱的感觉。它的故事很亲切，叙事很真诚，你感受的到这个剧集在张开怀抱接纳你，希望你能喜欢。主人公会把自己的感受用一种自然的方式表达出来，既说给当事人，又说给观众听，带观众去经历——从交友到向家里人坦白到犹豫到覆水难收，主人公的心情是可知可感的，而生活的旅途是不可预测的。而在面对困难的时候，主人公自己就不那么萌了，他总是很纠结的样子。相反是给他出主意的人有各种有趣的建议，他也会给别人一些有趣的建议。于是在大部分时间里，大家就是这么有趣来有趣去。所以就是一副萌的状态。
可别被萌的表象迷惑咯。结尾略虐，不过也算情理之中吧。
第二季也看了，少了萌萌哒，多了对生活困苦的反思，所以并没有第一季来的讨喜。蛮多情节都是为了把第一季的故事圆完整，倒也没有必要。还是喜欢第一季。

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.
