icon meme
1. Reply to this post, and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.
sbutt02 and tju_tju_tju_tju picked icons of mine, and since some of them overlapped, I'm just gonna put them all together.
This is pretty much my favorite icon. It was my default for like 6 months, until I got out of school and actually had time for LJ. Anyway, it's from the S2 finale of Heroes, an episode entitled Powerless, and I love it so much because Adam is one of my favorite characters, (RIP. *sniff*) and David Anders plus a samurai sword = win. tbh, I kind of ignore Peter as part of the team, since basically all he did was be Adam's "superpowered boytoy" (I love the EW recap that called him that. LOL), but whatever. To see this scene in action, here's a video with a bunch of clips from Powerless. Sorry, unfortunately embedding is disabled, and I don't have time to find another video. The awesome badassness starts at around 2:02.
Ah, Grey's Anatomy. I used to like the show. I even have the first two seasons on DVD. It started going downhill in S3, and I stopped watching after Addison left. But Addison was amazing, and I really liked her and Mark together. I was never really a big fan of Addison/Alex, which they also had in S3, but then again fans of both pairings got screwed over by the spinoff, so whatever. The scene my icon's from is really hot. It's at the end of this video, but that episode is hilarious, so you might as well watch the whole thing. ;)
I don't know what this picture was specifically taken for, but it was used in promotion for Spring Awakening, which I absolutely love. I first heard of it when some songs were used in various fanmixes (specifically The Bitch of Living, The Mirror-Blue Night, and The Dark I Know Well, iirc), but didn't pay too much attention. I remember not even liking The Bitch of Living very well, but The Mirror-Blue Night was what hooked me, and that prompted me to download the soundtrack. I didn't actually listen to it at first, but eventually I did, and really liked it. And well, now I'm pretty obsessed. Not in a creepy way though. I've heard some crazy stories. LOL. I'm hoping to see SA when the tour comes to Los Angeles next month, especially since I won't be able to see it on Broadway, considering it's closing in January. Not that I particularly like the current cast, from what I can tell, but still.
Here's the song that's currently my favorite. So sad, but so good. Skip to about 6:17 if you don't want to watch the whole thing.
LOL, this might be a close second favorite among my icons. (And both of my favorites are of David Anders. Imagine that. ;)) Since I didn't watch Alias, my first exposure to DA was through the pre-S2 interviews and promo stuff. My icon is from a video put up on the EW website from when they were filming the covershoot and stuff. I just immediately loved him after watching the little bits of the interview with him, and the part from my icon is especially adorable. LOL. Anyhoo...
Desmond! <3 My favorite character on Lost. He's amazing, and so is that blue shirt. And considering the fact that he wore it for almost two full seasons and I'm not sick of it is proof. ;) I have lots of love for both Desmond's blue shirt and Adam's purple shirt from Heroes.
I love Veronica Mars so much, and I love Logan/Veronica too. I tend to avoid thinking about S3, so I don't have to remember the stuff that happened there. LOL. This was their first kiss, and it's cute.
This one's pretty easy. Joe + arms + glasses + plaid = me happy. :)
Blair/Chuck is probably my favorite ship at the moment. Gossip Girl is a really great show, but Blair and Chuck, both as a couple, and individually, are the reasons why I even watch it. I like Serena and Eric too, as well as Rufus and Lily occasionally, but that's not enough for me to watch without Blair and Chuck. There's already too much Dan, Jenny, Nate, and Vanessa as it is. The scene from my icon was early on in the season, and really hot. It has already been surpassed by recent events, but is still good. :)
And now I have to go to bed, because I'm getting up early and going to see HSM 3! YAY.
ETA: Does anyone know how to embed more than 4 videos without the last one embedding all weird? I didn't know how to fix that, so I had to switch one of them to a link.
ETA 2: For discolemonaaade and anyone else who likes Dexter:
