Day 30 - Saddest character deathI am pretty easy to emotionally manipulate, so if a TV show is all but flashing a neon sign saying "CRY RIGHT NOW" I am probably going to. But there are two that I have not been able to watch more than once or twice ( Read more... )

Day 29 - Current TV show obsession

I don't have a TV show obsession any more. I have favorite shows, and a couple that I really, really love, but obsessing about a TV show means dealing with fandom and I am really, really tired of fandom as a whole.

Yesterday was my day off from...everything. I did a lot of shopping and reading and very little internetting.

Day 27 - Best pilot episode

Deadwood, "Deadwood". rarely have I been hooked on a show from the very first episode. This one jumps in, feet first, and introduces a mass of amazing characters with various degrees of entanglement. These ( Read more... )

Yesterday was crazed, between doctor's appointments and homecomings. I thought maybe all the time in the car is why my back is hurting, and then I realized that I hate absolutely everyone in the world, so it's actually PMS and I am backing away from the internet after I post this. Because my hackles, they are raised.

Day 25 - A show you plan on ( Read more... )

Day 24 - Best quote

Right now, I am going with "Conscience off, dick on, and everything's gon' be all right", but it was tough deciding between that and this:

Click to view

Technically, something from the Whedon oeuvre should go here, but when I stopped to think about it my brain went into a full-on bookstore/Sam Goody clusterfuck. You know, where you have ( Read more... )

Day 23 - Most annoying character

GEORGE. FREAKING. COSTANZA. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD.

I don't think we were supposed to like anyone on Seinfeld, and that's okay, because mostly it was funny. But sometimes George fucking pissed me off so much I would refuse to watch the show for weeks on end, to the point that the very existence of Curb Your ( Read more... )

Day 22 - Favorite series finale

I would say Dawn French marrying Richard Armitage in "A Wholly Holy Happy Ending", due to a maid of honor dressed as the Tenth Doctor and Dalek attendants, but they pushed for one last OTT humiliation joke and it made me very sad.

So instead I went with Blackadder: "Over the Top". Sniffle. (Warning: spoilers. This ( Read more... )

Day 21 - Favorite ship

I'm going to assume this means canonical, just because. SO. I am going to reach back into the 80s and say:

Frasier and Lilith. BEBE NEUWIRTH OWNS.

I'd be more chatty but it is my Lafayette time.

Day 20 - Favorite kiss

I loved, loved, loved Spike and Buffy under the steps in the Bronze at the end of "Tabula Rasa". It was probably the...sweetest they've ever been together. (I haven't watched it for a while, am not sure if that's the word I want.)

Runner up: Donna startling the Doctor in "The Unicorn and the Wasp". HAH!

Day 19 - Best TV show cast

You know, off the top of my head, I might have to go with Roseanne again, at least up until New Becky. Mainly because of John Goodman, but the chemistry between Goodman, Roseanne, and Laurie Metcalf was amazing. The kids seemed like real kids, and the secondary characters were pretty good across the board. ("My father ( Read more... )
