I love how she treats the fans. Her interviews are terrific, and she has done an amazing job playing Tina Kennard. I am hoping that Tina will soon be reunited with Bette, the lover of her life.

Bette and Tina are great together, but come on. This is looking like a Rachel and Ross theme. They need to get off the potty.
