i literally can't stop thinking about janel saying "we had been always talking about when we'd finally...like could kiss without anybody like..without breaking up any marriages or anything. we could just like kiss each other... i love brad and as i remember it was still a really good kiss. he's a good kisser and he's a great person and i loved him in life as much as i loved him as donna so that's the reason why donna exists it was because i loved brad so much i just kind of like channeled my feelings for brad who i still love"

good lord

JANEL MOLONEY: He’s (Bradley Whitford) a great guy. He’s a great guy. And you know what? I…every single scene I did was all about loving him. If it was about a bill being signed or anything, I was just finding ways to please him and unravel him in some way. Eat him up. You know, if you really are into someone, you could be sitting there and talking about the news and you’re sitting there thinking about taking their clothes off. And that’s the way, that’s the way life is, really. You know, the writing is just so incredibly good that, if you have a simple choice like that, it supports it so beautifully because it’s so, so good.

she’s so real for this

The craziest thing is that TWW costars and BTS staff all say the same about Brad and Janel being in love and being insane about each other, even it being insinuated that if his divorce (rumored to be due to his affair) had happened earlier, that they would have got together irl

oh wow that’s kinda sad jgxksgdn

[seaborns]

i was today years old when i discovered that its rumored that brad and janel had an affair

well. you and me both i guess!

[seaborns]

Fingers crossed that Branel shippers and TWW RPF shippers come out and find each other 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

well i mean anon if you wanna start a trend

[seaborns]

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if Branel end up together in the near future tbh

well i mean brad is already married to someone he met on a tv set lmao so i feel like perhaps that ship has sailed for him

You guys, I got to see Brad's face when he said that about Janel/Donna and I swear to god l almost DIED. Like he did this thing with his hands and his voice did that thing where it goes a tiny bit higher and it was basically like he completely turned into Josh for a second and I stopped breathing for that brief moment.

i do definitely think that brad is very similar to josh as a character, it makes it hard to believe that brad originally got cast as SAM lmao. that's so cool that you were there though! :D

We had a lot of downtime to discuss what this moment would be like. The fact that it happened almost by mistake was a really wonderful thing. It just kind of happened in the excitement of the moment. I think that was great. (…) Did I mention he had a cold? He’s cute, even snotty Brad is cute, and I love him. – Janel Moloney

When I found out it was happening I was excited. I get to kiss her! …I mean, in a purely professional manner, you know. (…) There was such a buildup about us. There was a lot of pressure. I think we felt self-conscious in front of the crew. I remember being relieved that it’s in the context of an enthusiastic explosion of good news. – Bradley Whitford

nooooo not him having a cold when they had to kiss TT___TT i always think about that as a germaphobe lmao like what if your coworker is sick... you can't rearrange the shooting schedule so you just have to get their germs ig
