Day 21 of the 30 day challenge it my favorite show! Anyone who knows me in person knows that I am a Felicity freak! I absolutely love that show! It aired from 1998-2002. It followed a girl, Felicity, played by Keri Russell, through her four years of college. I was in college from 1999-2003 so it was a show I felt I could relate.

I had my “Ben” and I saw a lot of parallels in my real-life relationship and the TV show Felicity and Ben’s relationship. It’s funny because that show was kind of like “our show” (me and the boyfriend) and we both fit the roles of Felicity and Ben pretty perfectly. I related.

During Felicity’s sophomore year her parents went through a separation and talked about  getting a divorce. That happened to me too right at about the same time. I related.

I watched as Felicity became a strong woman and at last accepted herself and realized that she was enough all on her own. She lost herself to find herself and I related. I have all 4 seasons on DVD and fairly regularly throw myself Felicity watching parties. Some shows stick with you forever.

    I’ve never seen a single episode….can we still be friends? Maybe you and I can have a Felicity/Gilmore Girls marathon.

    I never watched Felicity. I’ve heard so much about it though I feel like maybe I missed out. My show has always been Gilmore Girls. The Lorelai/Christopher relationship was so similar to mine at the time (minus the pregnancy at 16), when it didnt work out for them I sobbed. I love that show. I still watch it every night before bed.

    Hi Kelly I just found your blog and after reading this post I heart you even more. I too have all four seasons of Felicity! While watching that show I was in similar situations. I can quote lines from the show at the drop of a dime. I love your blog … So glad I found it.
