List 5 shows and then answer the questions below the cut. No peeking!
The shows:
1. Eureka
2. Criminal Minds
3. NCIS
4. Csi: NY
5. Hawaii Five-O
1. Who is your favorite character in 2?
Garcia
2. Who is your least favorite character in 1?
Beverly Barlow, if only because that plotline needed to die a long time ago.
3. What’s your favorite episode of 4?:
Any episode with Flack in it I actually thought the pilot did a really nice job, and while often they're a little heavy-handed with symbolism, the way they ended it, with Mac standing at Ground Zero in silence, was exactly the right kind of powerful.
4. What is your favorite season of 5?
I have a soft spot for season 1, because the second season is getting all angsty and odd.
5. What’s your favorite relationship in 3?:
TEAM! By which I mean I'm a huge Tony/Tim shipper, but the whole bickering sibling thing that Tim and Tony and Abby and Ziva (the hug at the end of last season was kind of perfect) and Gibbs and his "kids"... all squishy hearted.
6. Who is your anti relationship in 2?:
I don't really see Hotch/Morgan and while I can see where people get Morgan/Reid, I see Hotch/Reid more easily. Reid/Gideon is squicky.
7. How long have you watched 1?:
I had to play catch up, but I think I started watching mid-season 2 and have watched every episode of mid-season 4 through present. One night I had six episodes saved... so I stayed up until 6am watching them.
8. How did you become interested in 3?:
I heart crime procedurals, and my parents got me watching this one. After Criminal Minds started getting creepy, the light hearted-ness of this show drew me in.
9. Who is your favorite actor in 4?:
Eddie Cahill. He also has the most interesting (and actually substantive) plot lines.
10. Which show do you prefer, 1, 2, or 5?:
Probably Criminal Minds, then Eureka, then H50. The wacky hijinks of Hawaii 5-0 used to be higher, but all the tension and weird "Kono going rogue" plotline really turned me off. Fix yourselves, show!
11. Which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3?
Probably NCIS.
12. If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be?:
I'd be Sela Ward's character, though then I would go off script and get back with her ex-husband, because their chemistry is RIDICULOUS.
13. How would you kill off your favorite character in 1?:
Jack would, predictably, die saving the world. Nathan already did, but this being Eureka Henry would fix it all and bring Nathan back in the bargain. *waves Nathan/Jack flag*
14. Would a 3/4 crossover work?:
Navy death in New York! The genres don't quite mess with the real life gritty and the slightly shinier NCIS world, but I think if NCIS came to New York Gibbs and Mac would have long staring contests with quirked eyebrows, Tony would drive Danny crazy, and Adam would geek out over Tim's computer prowess (and lust after Abby). Flack would ask Ziva for her number.
15. Pair two characters in 1 that would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple:
Jack/Jo work better as "cranky siblings" but a relationship could totally work. Zoe/Fargo kind of hurts my brain.
16. Over all, which show has a better cast, 3 or 5?:
Tie! Although H50 might edge out NCIS for adorableness on and off the screen.
17. Which has better theme music, 2 or 4?:
CIS: NY, though Baba O'Reilly is the oddest theme song ever, it's is a ROCKING song. The Crimial Minds song used to work until they added in the bizarre electric guitar with the start of the last few seasons.
