my favorite female character
Eleanor of course!

my favorite male character
It’s a tough call between Michael and Chidi. I relate so much to Chidi’s second-gusssing himself over every decision, and his nervous stomach aches lol. But of course Michel is another fav as well, especially since season 2 has seen his character trying to learn human behaviour and become a better person

my favorite book/season/etc.
Definitely season 2. The first season was fun, but it was the cliffhanger that really made everyone sit up and take notice of the show, and I found the first half of season 2 especially so fun with all of the reboots

my favorite episode (if it’s a TV show)
The Eternal Shriek when Eleanor and Chidi are trying to kill Janet, that was the first episode of the show to really crack me up XD And The Trolley Problem is the episode that sticks out to me the most from season 2, although again I really loved *all* of those early season 2 episodes

my favorite cast memberKristen Bell and Ted Danson of course! They’re both so talented ( ... )

Aeryn

my favorite male character
John

my favorite book/season/etc.

I would once have automatically answered season 3 because I do think it’s the best season in a lot of ways, it has the most consistently strong run of episodes with no clunkers, but now it’s really hard to narrow it down because there’s so much I love about *all* the seasons. Season 2 has more ups and downs when it comes to the episodes, but that central arc with Scorpuis driving John insane was soooo good that nothing can really beat the final run of episodes from this year, and then I also really love the second half of season 4 when John finally makes it back to earth. He gets such amazing character development that year too as it starts to really hit him just how dark he’s become to threaten people with a nuclear bomb. Can I just say that I love all of them for different reasons? :P

my favorite episode (if it’s a TV show)DNA Mad Scientist, Crackers Don’t Matter, The Way We Weren’t, Won’t Get Fooled Again, Liars, Guns and Money ( ... )

"Crichton Kicks" tops the list of my favourite episodes. I've re-watched that so many times.

Yes, I think that episode is so underrated! It’s such a fan way of starting the season, I’m always here for slightly manic and crazy John, LOVED Sikozu’s intro, and there was also some really beautifully filmed moments with Chiana when you find out about her new powers to slow down time. It’s such a fun episode, I was astonished to later read criticism of it supposedly being a terrible episode and really confusing for getting newcomers into the show.

my favorite female character
Emily

my favorite male character
None of them really lol

my favorite book/season/etc.
Just the one season so far!

my favorite episode (if it’s a TV show)
The third episode (Late), those first three episodes were all so great really, it was a shame that they seemed to lose a little bit of momentum after that when they switched directors. Everything about Late was perfect, the flashbacks to the protests with Heart Of Glass playing, Emily’s entire storyline

my favorite cast member
Alexis Bledel

my favorite ship
June and Moira’s friendship

a character I’d die defending
I guess June?

a character I just can’t sympathize with
There’s quite a few I could name here! Definitely the Commander and Serena Joy for starters

a character I grew to love
Janine

my anti otp
Idk I guess June and Nick as it seems like a lot of the fandom is rooting for Nick and he’s a fan favourite, but I don’t really get his appeal

my favorite female character
Joey

my favorite male character

Pacey

my favorite book/season/etc.

Season 3

my favorite episode (if it’s a TV show)

Detention, Stolen Kisses, The Longest Day, The Anti-Prom, True Love, Castaways, the finale

my favorite cast member

I guess Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson?

my favorite ship

Pacey/Joey

a character I’d die defendingDefinitely Joey Potter, it’s utterly ridiculous how much hate she gets from overtly defensive Pacey fans. The entire failure of their relationship in season 4 is always blamed on Joey not being enough of a cheerleader for Pacey, never mind that Pacey had huge self-esteem issues thanks to his family long before he ever started dating Joey, and I can name *many* occasions when she gives Pacey long reassuring speeches about how she sees her future with him. He just wasn’t ready to hear it because of his own insecurities that had nothing to do with Joey. His speech at the prom was total projecting because HE didn’t feel like he measured up, Joey never said one word ( ... )

my favorite female character
Lorelai

my favorite male character
Umm I’m not sure actually, I never cared about the male characters as much tbh, maybe Michel if I had to pick one

my favorite book/season/etc.
The first four seasons were my favourites, the contrived drama all started to get a bit too dark and heavy in the later years. I did however love the nostalgic feel of the miniseries

my favorite episode (if it’s a TV show)
Rory’s Dance, The Bracebridge Dinner, They Shoot Gilmores, Don't They?, and probably tons more that I’m forgetting

my favorite cast member
Alexis Bledel

my favorite ship
Rory/Logan. But mostly GG isn’t really a show where I care for how the romantic relationships are written, I care more about the friendships

a character I’d die defending
I wouldn’t say that I’d die defending him, and I do get everyone’s issues with him, but Christopher is probably the character that I’ve defended the most tbh

a character I just can’t sympathize withThis probably makes me a terrible GG fan, but nope I will never get the ( ... )

Thanks for sharing your answers. Same about Luke, and especially Kirk.
