I fell asleep last night watching Felicity. My husband walked into the room and saw me snoozing beside the baby. That’s the last I recall of what happened last night.
This morning I was rushing for work when my husband suddenly said out of the blue, “Hey, Felicity isn’t that bad! I liked it!”
I stopped washing my face and looked at him. “What?”
“I watched one episode when you fell asleep. It’s really good! The story is simple but nakakakilig (thrilling). And there are a lot of subplots but they mesh together well.”
“Oh!,” I grinned, honestly surprised that my husband enjoyed the show. “So what happened after I slept?”
He made a face and I figured he didn’t want to talk about it. He took a deep breath then went, “Well Felicity has this roommate who has spells, then Felicity said she didn’t believe in magic but she believed in faith. Who’s Felicity’s crush?”
“Ben.”
“Ben. So he got a job that meant he’d drive and be gone for two weeks, so the group decided to go on a road trip together. But the pseudo-boyfriend of Felicity… what’s his name?”
“Noel.”
“Noel. He said it was awkward because they were friends but they were still kissing, so going on a road trip would be a bad idea. And then Ben’s girlfriend broke up with him.”
What followed was a very detailed explanation of the episode. I was hiding a smile the whole time I was getting dressed for work. My husband went on and on about the show.
“…and then it’s by J.J. Abrams! No wonder it’s good! The girl who played Felicity was in Mission Impossible too,” he continued to gush. He looked at me and asked, “How far down am I this season?”
“I think that was the finale you just watched. From your story it looks like everyone’s going away for the summer,” I responded.
“Yeah. Then there were moments between Ben and Felicity, as if they were going to kiss but they wouldn’t, now Felicity is torn between telling her best friend or not…,” then he continued to gush. My husband. Fascinated by Felicity.
I was late for my ride by 20 minutes but it was worth it.
That was the highlight of my morning.

P.S. I know I’m like ten years behind on the show but I’m only on Season 1. No spoilers please!!!

December 7, 2010 at 3:28 pm (13 years ago)I loved Felicity. I would put in extra hours in front of the TV during school nights just to follow Felicity’s stalkerish ways. LOL. The show also introduced me to University of New York (or NYU in real life) and my so-called dream NYC life, minus the confusion and heartaches of course.
Glad you’re following it. I never got to finish the series though. Hmm…I just might follow in your footsteps! LOL.
