When they play that song together, her on piano and him on cello and he's playing the cello like a guitar; and her with the New Guy when they're doing the hop on one foot tell each other a fact about themselves thing.
"The sun ain't gonna shine in your eyes... when you're without her..." Are probably not the words, but I never understood the words. The tune, nevertheless, is right back in my head. I actually didn't find the hopping thing as charming as I think I was meant to, partly because I was rather ambivalent about that date as a whole. Don't know why. I liked the guy ("Nothing up my sleeve! Nothing on my plate but gravy - yum!") but... I dunno.
I like the scene in Groundhog Day where Bill Murray tells Andie Macdowell all the things he knows about her.
Oh, um, is Lee about, perchance?
Believe she's watching TV at the moment. You want I should call her to the computer?
I'm here! What's up, Burrell? Are you in town/going to be?
Um, she can watch tv. But maybe she can call me after she's done? or email me. That'd be verra nice, danke.
Oh, um, nevermind the above, and hi Lee! Yeah, I was hoping to chat and maybe firm up some plans for the weekend/next week.

Exactly. Nothing is so binding as being known.
I also think scenes of unexpected kindness and thoughtfulness, things which show deep attention has been paid, play very romantically.

WOOHOO
Email, or do you want to call?
You know, I think all the Most Romantic TeeVee Comedy Moments in my head are ones I half-remember from freaking Family Ties and involve Alex and Ellen.
