PSA: to all the "just landed on the planet, don't know how showbiz works" Anons constantly sending me Asks about Sam and Eleanor having a romantic thing in real life because of the "flirting" they're doing on social media. STOP. You're being annoying AF. 🙄
Sam and Eleanor are engaging in PROMO to SELL their series, The Couple Next Door. Part of TCND involves Sam and Eleanor's FICTIONAL CHARACTERS getting hot and heavy with each other. Hence, the ACTORS are playing up that vibe and chemistry. Do they get along in real life and have become friends? It seems so. But that does not take away from the fact that ALL their current interactions are purposely done to PROMOTE their WORK.
The same way Sam and Caitriona Balfe SOLD the epic love story of Jamie and Claire on Outlander. Promo, sell, promo, sell, promo sell... because if actors don't promo and sell, they don't continue to work.
In addition, and as a reminder to the permanently clueless: the sex scenes are not improvised, and Sam and Eleanor happen to be alone in a bed with a camera with a self timer. Doh. Every word they are saying is literally written by a professional television writer. Every move they make is directed by the director. And they even had an intimacy coach for the sex scenes. So, she directed them also. Then, there are the lighting people standing there, the sound people standing there, the production people standing there, the camera people standing there, assorted other crew standing there LITERALLY watching them film the sex scenes. It may look sexy, but try fake fucking in front of at least 15 people and see how "sexy and real" it is. The ONLY reason it looks so hot is because Sam and Eleanor are great at their JOBS.
This is SO obvious, a child could understand it. I don't know why I have to explain such obvious things to GROWN WOMEN. Showbiz isn't real, folks. Actors literally get paid to tell fictional stories, "it's not real," and all that jazz.
Please figure out how life works and quit bugging me. Anymore dumbass questions about Sam and Eleanor and how "it can't just be to promote TCND, " and "Sam may steal Eleanor away from her husband" and you will be blocked. For the crime of being a supreme idiot. Sorry, the older I get, the less tolerance I have for morons. Don't be one. And we will be fine.
Can you tell I've been flooded with annoying Anons lately? 🙃
