With ten days to go (OMG, TEN DAYS TO GO!!!!), it's time to start surrounding yourselves with people who will understand why you cease to function as a person for HOURS ON END over the course of the final eight episodes of The Greatest Show On Earth! Feel free to pimp this out at your own journals or on tumblr/twitter/dreamwidth if you feel the

NAME | waltzmatildah
GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION | Australia
YOUTUBE/TWITTER/TUMBLR/OTHER | Not really... I have all three, but don't really use any of them in a manner that is at all productive.

FAVOURITE BREAKING BAD CHARACTERS/SHIPS | Walter White is my MOST FAVOURITE CHARACTER OF ALL TIME EVER IN THE HISTORY OF CHARACTERS. Also, Jesse Pinkman. Skyler White. Saul Goodman. Skinny Pete.
FAVOURITE BREAKING BAD EPISODE/SCENE | Episode? The Pilot, and Fly. And Thirty-Eight Snub. And Crawl Space. Scene? OH DON'T MAKE ME CHOOSE (which doesn't really work as a declaration, when I'm the one that wrote the questions...). UMMMMM. I LOVE the pull back shot at the end of Crawl Space where Walt is hysterical and the phone is ringing and Skyler is all O_O...



I also love the scene in Thirty-Eight Snub where Walt is practising drawing the handgun out of his trousers...



Um, I love the whole opening sequence from the Pilot where Walt's trousers are flying through the air and Jesse is unconsious with a gas-mask on and Walt's is pseudo-confessing into the camcorder. Talk about an epic "WELCOME TO OUR SHOW"!!



I LOVE ALL THE SCENES, OKAY?

THE CHARACTER MOST LIKELY TO SURVIVE THE FINAL EIGHT EPISODES IS... | Saul. Hopefully. Oh, and Holly, hopefully!! Also, Skyler. Hopefully! As you can probably tell, I am not confident about ANY of these choices!!
IF I COULD GUEST-STAR FOR AN EPISODE I WOULD PLAY... | Jane's sister/cousin/best friend, come to SEEK THE TRUTH about her death. I would probably end up dead. I am okay with that...

OTHER FANDOMS/SHOWS/LOVES | The Killing, Orphan Black, Teen Wolf, Homeland, Game of Thrones, Rookie Blue, Grey's Anatomy, New Girl...
FANNISH PROCLIVITIES - FIC, ART, SQUEE, VIDS | Some fic (though not much BrBa fic because I find the material to be SO INTIMIDATING!). Some meta (including for BrBa).
FUN FANDOM FACT ABOUT YOU | I think Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston are free of flaws. Amen.

FRIENDING POLICY | I don't have one.
TYPICAL JOURNAL CONTENT | Fic. Meta. Music. Random stories about random things; for example, my last entry devolved into a discussion (via gifs) about unintentional sexual harrassment perpetrated by animals so... yeah.

ANYTHING ELSE?

Yay! Thanks for doing another friending meme, waltz. Unfortunately I've just filled in all my answers only to have my comment marked down as spam *sigh* Hopefully one of the mods can verify that it was not a spam comment and it will appear on this thread soon.

I can definitely see you as Jane's aussie sister. :) Love your choices of favourite episodes, scenes, characters, etc. Like you, I have too many favourites. They are all my favourites!! Love your gif choices too. :)

I de-spammed your comment! I think it was probably the link to your video hosting page.

I'm gonna try to do something fun every day for the rest of the countdown but I'm not sure I'll be able to come up with enough things! Any suggestions?

I'm going to also have a spam party. And a speculation post (no spoilers allowed!). But I'm not sure what else. Maybe a crossover day (either put the BrBa characters into another show, or put other characters into BrBa). Don't suppose you have any ideas? I waited too long for the Fantasy Breaking Bad, and I'm so annoyed! I wrote up the whole post for it a couple of days ago but then realised that spoilers and promo videos have been floating around for weeeeeks now (because I'm avoiding them like the ~plague I hadn't really noticed). SO DISAPPOINTED WITH MYSELF!

[falafel_musings]

Any suggestions?

Ohh! First off, great idea! We need to wake up all the BrBa LJ fans again ready so we can all hold hands through the final episodes. I really REALLY need a support system for this show because it is going to kill me dead.

As for suggestions...how about a few character appreciation days? Like say, if it is a Jesse day you could do a Jesse specific meme asking fans for their favourite Jesse moments, lines, outfits, etc. Maybe thoughts on Aaron's best acting and predictions on what will (or what we want to) happen to Jesse in the end. And then do one of those posts for each of the main characters (well, Walt, Jesse, Skyler and Hank at least). I'd definitely enjoy a more general speculation post too (maybe save that one for the final weekend before 5x9 airs!)

Great job building up the BrBa excitement! Please keep going. I'll support every post. :)

[waltzmatildah]

Oh, yes!! Character appreciation posts!!! YOU ARE A GENIUS!! Thank you so much :)

[falafel_musings]

Yay! Looking forward to the next 10 days a lot more now. Oh and in addition to the main characters, maybe we could have a 'favourite dead characters' or 'favourite minor characters' appreciation posts to group other characters together.
