Psych | Motown Philly by jarrow
Summary: Not too hard, not too soft.
jarrow writes in the notes for this vid about it being about physical comedy "combined with the feel of ♥ Shawn! ♥ Gus! ♥ Shawn & Gus! ♥ ♥ ♥" - that's it; that's the vid, and it is a delight.

Leverage | Parachute by thingswithwings
Summary: I don't need a parachute, baby, if I've got you.
It's an Alec/Eliot/Parker OT3 vid about them navigating their feelings and being vulnerable and being badasses and being fantastic together and being there for each other. It feels a lot like a shipping manifesto, because I want to point at this vid and say, this, this is why, this is my OT3. I love this vid, because it's sweet and vulnerable and soft and full of love, and it's about that tentative love turning sure, and it's Leverage and team and found family.

Agents of SHIELD | Feeling Good by mithborien
Summary: "You're really just asking me to drive the bus?" An Agent Melinda May character study.
I watched the first episode of SHIELD but that's been it, so I am missing nuances with this vid, but I love it a lot anyway. It's about a somewhat stoic female pilot who literally kicks ass and has a fantastic skeptical face and small smile and rolls her eyes at Coulson; I don't know what's going on here entirely but she seems awesome. It's also set to Feeling Good by Muse, which is basically smooth as fuck, and the way that rhythm and that vocal track gets used make this vid very cool.

Marx Brothers Films | A Night Like This by thirdblindmouse
Summary: Starring Margaret Dumont, the Marx Brothers, and other beasts of the wild.
It's this absolutely lovely showcase of Margaret Dumont's role in those films and a fun romp through them. I have been in love with these films for a long time and after watching this vid I am more in love with Margaret then ever. I keep watching it over and over, endlessly charmed.

Bend It Like Beckham | Do My Thing by such_heights
Summary: Jess knows just where she's going.
It's a vid about Jess dreaming and practicing and going after what she wants and being awesome and true to herself even when it makes her life difficult. The vid's got a bit of a Jess/Jules bent, so it is basically everything that I loved about the movie. It's like a defiant victory march.
