TV Meme
This rather cool meme requires you to list your six favourite tv shows and answer the questions. Unfortunately, I have way more than six shows I can put down without feeling guilty about all the ones I'm excluding, so I wrote them all down and pulled them out of a hat (literally - I found a hat and everything) so here goes, in no particular order:
1 - Doctor Who (2005)
2 - Queer as Folk (the original mancunian one)
3 - Firefly (though I've still got five episodes to watch :D)
4 - Buffy the Vampire Slayer
5 - Shameless
6 - Hex
Meh, it's funny that four are British shows (and two set in Manchester) and the only American ones were both created by the same man, lol. (The other shows I wanted included Lost, Battlestar Galactica, The OC and Weeds, among others...)
1 - Who is your favorite character from #2? (Queer as Folk)
Vince. Stuart is gorgeous, of course, but Vince is just... adorable.
2 - Who is your least favorite character from #4? (Buffy)
Well there were a lot of people who were not fun to like, but in truth the worst had to be Riley, just because there was no power on earth that could make me care if he fell in a pit full of spikes (hee!) and died.
3 - What would a crossover between #1 and #5 include? (Doctor Who + Shameless)
The mind boggles. My theory is that the TARDIS would be somewhere in the Chatsworth estate, following up a rumour of a psychic dog, and Lip, high on something would attempt to steal it, enlisting the help of much of the family to wheel it away. Steve would attempt to flog it, unsuccessfully because the doors are jammed. Meanwhile, the Doctor would be teaching Debbie the wonders of the world, and she would be falling wildly in twelve-year-old love with him. In chasing up the TARDIS, Captain Jack would try to make a pass at Fiona, for which Steve fights him. They all eventually settle it with a blazing row and a good party (Rose and Lip should definitely get together at this point). The next morning, they discover the TARDIS gone. Frank wakes up in 1453 Russia with a hangover and chilly toes.
4 - Who is your favorite ship from #6? (Hex)
I HATED Malachi/Ella, it was so so wrong. Ella/Leon was absurdly cute though. Neither Cassie nor Troy were interesting enough to care whether they were on or off. Azazeal/Jo was a bit of alright. But my favourite has to be Thelma/Just about anybody, just because I am so totally in love with Thelma. Especially when she had her angel wings on. And Thelma/Roxanne would be darn interesting, but Thelma/Me would be best :D
5 - If you were to set one person from #3 and one person from #6 on a blind date, who would they be? (Firefly and Hex)
Heh. This requires leaps of imagination I've having trouble conjuring up at the moment... I think Azazeal and Inara would be able to discuss high matters of philosophy and the like and be terribly genteel which would suit them both down to the ground. His infinite charm (and intense evil) wouldn't quite manage to sweep her off her feet, though. And she wouldn't be having any of his anti-christ offspring, that's for certain.
6 - If you could meet one person from #4 and spend the day with them, who would it be, and what would you do? (Buffy)
It would be Willow, and she'd teach some nifty magic tricks to make things go glowy and breathlesslike. Shiny!
7 - If you could change one thing about #2's plotline, what would you change? (Queer as Folk)
Well I didn't much like the second series at all as much as the first. I reckon they should have never let Stuart and Vince get anywhere near together, mainly to save Vince the pain of having to get rejected time after time, poor baby. The overall effect was most unsatisfactory, but I have no idea what I'd do about it...
8 - Explain a relationship between two people (not necessarily romantic) from show #5, and why you like the relationship between them. (Shameless)
To tell the truth, I like the relationships in the whole Galagher family. It's such a mess of amorality, drink, drugs, violence, crime, secrets and sex you'd think there was no space for any love in it, but surprisingly every episode leaves you feeling heartwarmed because there is so much love it sort of sinks all the crap into itself. Half of what they do the do for each other.
9 - If the lead title characters (first name in the credits) from #1 and #3 were both drowning, and you could only save one, who would it be? (Doctor Who and Firefly)
Oh my God that would not be fair! That's the sort of descision that comes up in your nightmares, gah. I think in the end it would have to be Mal I saved, as the Doctor does have a few more lives to live. He could just regeneratapow outta there, while I rescue our poor gurgling spaceboy.
10 - If you could change the title characters' order in the credits for #4, what order would you choose? (Buffy)
I like them how they are, but I would lobby to have Faith included in the credits. No reason other than my love for her, lol.
11 - If you were able to add a new character, any kind of character you wanted, to the storyline for #6, what would the character be like and what would their role be? (Hex)
I would find someone with a very large gun to shoot Malachi through the head. Basically, an Ella that was actually useful.
12 - What happens in your favorite episode of show #2? (Queer as Folk)
Stuart has sex with a fifteen year old and becomes a father on the same night. Vince pulls a fat bloke with a fake chest. Nathan tells a lot of lies.
13 - If you could kill off one of the characters of #1, who would it be and how would you do it?
Adam would die, and it would be very messy.
14 - If you got the chance to visit the set for either show #3 or show #5, which would you choose? (Firefly and Shameless)
Considering I can find a place remarkably similar to the Chatsworth estate less than a five minute drive away, I think I'd definitely be visiting Serenity.
15 - If you could date anyone from any of these shows, which show and which person?
Thelma from Hex, certainly. Just... because, lol. Other possibilities would be Faith (Buffy), Steve (Shameless), Captain Jack (Dr Who), Spike (Buffy), River (Firefly) or Azazeal (Hex)
Found this on Cult of Lincoln, woo!
