Hawaii Five-0
*DISCLAIMER DISCLAIMER!* Because the STEVE/DANNY FOR ALL OF THE AWARDS answers are so obvious here, I'm just going to supply an abridged list of runner-ups for each category. ;)
• 3 favorite relationships
- Steve and Mary, because asdfghjkl fucked-up, much? I mean, it's heartbreaking, how they're all the family either of them has left but they still know each other so little. I really hope we get to see more of her, and that their relationship gets explored a little more in-depth.
- Danny and Kono, I JUST LOVE THEM SO MUCH ♥♥♥ Especially, kind of how Danny instinctively took her ~under his wing~ even though she needs it not at all, lulz. Also: surfing lessons. That's hot. ALL THE FIC: WHERE IS IT!
- Danny and Rachel, though mainly as amiable divorcees. I like, quite perversely I'm aware, pining not-entirely-over-this Danny. I like friendly let's-be-adult-about-this Rachel. I do not want them making babies but at the same time, I can see why they would. LOL I'LL BE READY FOR MY PUBLIC STONING AT THE FANDOM ALTAR ANY DAY NOW.
• 3 favorite characters
- DANNYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY, LOVE OF MY LIFE, LIGHT OF MY HEART
- STEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVEEEEEE *le swoon*
- CHIN-HO MOTHAFRAKKIN' KELLY! I love so much about the things Chin chooses to be <33333 I love Kono as well, but homegirl needs a storyline! Can't wait for that in S2!
• 3 of my favorite moments*
(*this question is impossible, there are so many scenes that are my favorite - and I consciously excluded any and all Steve/Danny scenes because LOL I WOULD BE HERE ALL DAY AND NIGHT.)
- In the tsunami episode, for just one second, they consider letting thieves break into the asset forfeiture locker so the heat will be off of them when the money is found missing. And then, of course, they don't because that's not them. I also love that Danny - who up until that point was technically uninvolved in the theft itself - brought up the idea. This whole storyline did so much in the way of showcasing the dynamics of the team, and ~what I saw was beautiful~. So that was the moment, for me, when the proverbial shit just got real: I will stay with these characters until the bitter end.
- The memorial ceremony for Kono's surf mentor. It was such a beautiful scene, esthetically and conceptually. I love the little scenes that attempt to give us a feel for Hawaiian culture, and I think maybe this one did a solid job of that. Very touching scene, at any rate.
- The first time Steve calls Catherine in Chin's presence, and Chin's like "so you got her to illegitimately use naval resources AND make a date?" (inaccurate wording is inaccurate) and Steve's all "oh yeah, nbd" and Chin's FACE IS AMAZING. "I'm just saying: impressive!" No matter how many times I see this scene, I always LOL. XD
• 3 reasons I like/love that fandom
- THE WHOLE MAIN CAST. I adore them all to pieces. It is quite ridiculous.
- The quasi-universal shipping, not gonna lie. It's really fun how the darling OTP of fandom is Steve/Danny :D
- Show is just so damn fun and popcorn-y and yet remains so character-driven. LOL IT SURPASSED ALL MY INITIAL EXPECTATIONS, HONESTLY~
dref22 asked me about
Battlestar Galactica
• 3 favorite relationships
(this is so tough because I love EVERY BODY and almost all the relationships! Cally/Hotdog, still side-eying you)
- Bill and Lee Adama. There is just SO MUCH that goes unsaid between them and it hurts so good. Why yes, I do like my shows with a myriad daddy issues.
- Boomer/anyone, I just love how the humanity of cylons was explored through her character and her interactions in and out of the colonial fleet; especially in the first and last seasons. Also part of me will always, always ship Boomer/Chief. ;_;
- Bill and Saul, Commander and XO, epic bros 4 lyfe. Also, "Liam. Short for William" = MY CREYS FOREVER.
• 3 favorite characters
(gawdz this is IMPOSSIBLE and also, it changes every day!)
- Gaius Baltar
- Kara Thrace
- Saul Tigh
• 3 of my favorite moments
- 1x05, You Can't Go Home Again. "If it were you, we'd never leave." asdfghjkl;' BREAK MY HEART MORE. That Lee is so unsure, and Bill so definitive, I think was a turning point in making me a fan of this show.
- "I know about farming." Watching Gaius Baltar spiral out of common sanity, clinging only to his love for Caprica Six was one of my favorite things in the show. I can't even describe how rewarding it felt to see him finally come to terms with his own history, and seek only simple peace in the end.
- I LOVE KARA THRACE AND I DON'T CARE WHO FRAKKING KNOWS! Starbuck/Apollo are so my weakness. And I mean, all of Unfinished Business, what a gorgeous, gut-twisting episode.
• 3 reasons I like/love that fandom
- the writers obviously loved the story and always put a great deal of care into paying due respects to it <333333
- the plethora of strong female characters - so much inspiration rolled into one kick-ass show! I want to be Starbuck when I grow up, or maybe Athena, or MAYBE Roslin. I have yet to decide. :D
- the cast is just all-around amazing and I heart them more than I can ever say ♥
mondmusik asked me about
LOST
(talk about impossible to answer... this meme is torture torcha!
• 3 favorite relationships
- Jack and Locke. I will cry if I think about it too long, I wish I were shitting you. LOL, I'M SO EMOTIONAL. Here are two quotes from the finale that I feel perfectly symbolize how so very damn important they were to each other's existence:
JACK: (to Smokey) You're not John Locke, you disrespect his memory by wearing his face, but you are nothing like him. It turns out he was right about just about everything. I just wish I could have told him that when he was still alive.
*
LOCKE: I hope.. somebody does for you what you just did for me.
Etc. Again, I could sit here all night waxing fangirlese.
- Hurley and Charlie, resident adorable BFFs.
- Desmond/Penny, OTP supreme.
• 3 favorite characters
- Jack
- Desmond
- Juliet
• 3 of my favorite moments

- the opening sequence of the pilot *_*
- the closing sequence in the finale ;_;
• 3 reasons I like/love that fandom
- Darlton. Haters gonna hate, but I will love these guys forever and a day. Their podcasts were always highlights in my week, and hell yes, I miss them.
- THE CAST. lol sorry if I'm getting a little repetitive here, but I seriously love almost all of them.
- All of the frantic spazzing and theorizing as the show was airing. It was crazy awesome, and sometimes just crazy.
canadian_turtle asked me about
Friends
• 3 favorite relationships
- Chandler and Monica, CHANDLER AND MONICA! MY EYES! MY EEEEEEEEYES! I love how it came completely out of the blue and then felt so natural and obvious and meant to be. MFEO!
- Chandler and Joey. I miss them like a limb.
- Phoebe and Joey
• 3 favorite characters
- Chandler
- Phoebe
- Joey
• 3 of my favorite moments
- "Chandler has a third nipple!" "You bitch!" IT'S ALL IN THE DELIVERY OKAY? lawl Monica and Chandler. Years later fans would come to look upon these innocuous scenes as ~foreboding~, e.g. how did Monica know about the third nipple anyways? LOL.
- "Watch, learn, and don't eat my cookie." And pretty much anything Phoebe ever did or said. Princess Consuela Banana Hammock!
- the gang serenading Marcel outside the set of Outbreak 2 Electric Boogaloo with "The Lion Sleeps Tonight." I totally got emotional, lulz.
• 3 reasons I like/love that fandom
- Honestly, I grew up with Friends, it was a fantastic English teacher, it informed much of my own humor, and it ~lives in me~. I can't put that in any simpler terms.
- I feel like it left a mark on an entire generation, and that's pretty awesome. I'm so glad people are still celebrating it today on Tumblr and, y'know, out in the real world. :D
- SMELLY CAT, SMELLY CAT; WHAT ARE THEY FEEDING YOU? SMELLY CAT, SMELLY CAT: IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT! XD Also: the cast. Perfect much? Duh.

thefreshchuff asked me about
Chuck
• 3 favorite relationships
- BRYCE AND CHUCK OMFG. I'm so sad he died, you don't even know. I mean, I am so glad Bomer got White Collar and, in so doing, saved Bryce Larkin from the horrible fate that befell the Shaw character, but I mean, Bryyyyyyyyyyyce! Bryce was perfection. I hear his hair's insured for $10,000. Anyway, he and Chuck were totally boyfriends and gods, the lengths Bryce went to in order to protect Chuck. Favorite-ish line: "I've got one friend in the whole world. You have a store full of them."
- Casey and Alex. Need more, need so very much more. Casey is criminally underdeveloped for a character that's been with the show from the get-go. It's a shame. D:
- Chuck and Morgan. Morgan used to annoy the fuck out of me, tbh. He's matured a bunch since the first season though, and his and Chuck's BFF-ship is truly adorable.
• 3 favorite characters
- Chuck. He's such a dreamboat, which is so ridiculous, but I can forgive a lot of things in the face of Zachary Levi, so whatevers: I love him. <3
- Stephen Bartowski. COME BACK, SCOTT BAKULA!
- Captain Awesome. I love it whenever he gets in on the action, Ryan McPartlin has priceless comedic timing!
• 3 of my favorite moments
- Chuck's "guys, I know kung-fu."
- The entire opening sequence, with Bryce Larkin, not an accountant - because HOLY SHIT, HOW BADASS WAS THAT.
- Sarah looking for Chuck's dad with him. I loved how understated that whole ~current of emotion~ was left, felt just right.
• 3 reasons I like/love that fandom
- JEFFSTER! I will never forget their first live performance at Comic-Con, and sitting in line in the middle of the night making banners. Epic times. XD
- How much of dorks Zach Levi and Josh Gomez actually are, always nerding out over some video game or other. Lulz, it's so cute.
- The grassroots support campaigns, how efficiently the fans rallied to back the show's main sponsors at a critical time. I'm actually very impressed with that. It's been a fantastic thing to be a part of, on however small a scale as I was. (Look, I can't eat much more than 2 footlongs on any given Monday, alright?)
micheleeeex asked me about
White Collar
• 3 favorite relationships
- Neal/Peter, duh. ;)
- Peter and Mozzie omg, because they are HILARIOUS. I am filled with glee every time they're going to share a scene. I always look forward to them, they crack me up so much. XD
- Peter and Elizabeth. Easily in top 2 most awesome marriages on TV right there with the Taylors of Dillon, Texas.
• 3 favorite characters
- Peter
- Neal
- Diana. I had leftover love for Marsha Thomason from her days on Lost, but Diana is fierce in her own right and I'm so glad she returned for S2. Now she just needs more scenes!
• 3 of my favorite moments
- the airstrip scene in the S1 finale, a.k.a. LET'S WATCH NEAL AND PETER BE COMPLETELY IN LOVE. I got such a Ross/Rachel vibe from this scene the first time I saw it, lmao. I still do, let's be honest here. Neal was gonna stay, you guys. Because Peter asked. asdfghjkl;'
- "Of all the people in my life, you're the only one I trust." ENOUGH SAID.
- The Hug, of course.
In conclusion: lol I am a shameless shipper, what else is new?
• 3 reasons I like/love that fandom
- Matt Bomer. If you look up 'flawless' in the dictionary, you'll find the definition of 'flawless', which Matt Bomer fucking is.
- Tim DeKay, so very relevant to my interests.
- Matt DeKay and Tim Bomer; together they are the goofiest of goofs, the dorkiest of dorks, and best of all, they think they're soooo funny (spoiler alert: they are). In sum: PRECIOUSNESS ABOUNDS.
Whew. That was fun. :D
