| Desperate Romantics | comment |
A 2009 miniseries made by The BBC revolving around the lives of Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood painters Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Holman Hunt, and John Millais. The series is notable for its blatant use of Artistic License – History, explicitly presented as a meta-commentary on the artistic licence that was used by the artists themselves. The painters are seen as a gang of rowdy young men who drink, fight, fall in love and get wrapped up in drama. Also, there are tits and bums and Everybody Has Lots of Sex (For a reference point, one review called the show "Entourage with Easels.") | |

Brilliant, but Lazy | |
| Desperate Romantics / int_355007c3 | comment |
Brilliant, but Lazy: Gabriel often fails to attain the same kind of professional success as Hunt and Millais, not because he lacks talent but because he spends too much time hell-raising and hardly any time actually working. | |

Break the Cutie | |
| Desperate Romantics / int_4b316d47 | comment |
Break the Cutie: Lizzie's character arc is essentially this, with a healthy dose of Corrupt the Cutie thrown in for good measure. Ultimately results in Kill the Cutie. | |

| Desperate Romantics / int_8c9e724c | comment |
Big Beautiful Woman: Fanny, the redheaded prostitute that Gabriel has a semi-serious affair with once Ruskin shows more interest in Lizzie's artistic potential than his. | |

Betty and Veronica: Lizzie has to choose between the sweet, sensitive Fred and the charming, roguish Gabriel. Naturally she chooses Gabriel. Still, Fred is so shy and hesitant it's generally unclear whether she even notices that he's in love with her. | |
