...and I finally finished a meme!  One less to do on my list :D

Meme snagged from
katje0711.

1. What are your current fandoms?

+ Lost
+ Crimianl Minds
+ Person of Interest
+ House
+ The Mentalist



2. How did you get into each fandom?

+ lol! I don't think I'll ever forget this. It was a Friday or Saturday, I think. Anyway, the power was off and I was alone and bored out of my skull so I started looking for a movie to watch on the portable dvd, and I came across Lost's first season. One of my aunts had recommended it to my dad a few months ago, and had provide him the first and second season, he hadn't seen them yet, but when I read the synopsis it made me curious, so I started watching it. And oh Gody! Wasn't it one of the best decision I've ever done! I watched the first three season in a matter or days, and then I had to wait a couple of months for the fourth season to come out :P

+ I saw a couple of minutes here and there, but wasn't sure about  getting involved with a cop show, so I never really saw it well. The first episode I watched was of the last ones from season three, There was nothing to watch on TV so I said, why not? I really liked it from the start because it wasn't nothing like other shows I had seen before, so I keep watching. I saw like three or four more episodes before I decided to started watching from season 1, fall in love with Hotch and was totally dragged by Garcia's witty personality.

+ Michael Emerson, that's it. As soon as I hear he was in, so was I. Of course by the time I hear, it had already been released in the U.S. and was around the seven or eight episode. The first episode I watched was 1x02 Ghosts, and right the next day I looked online for the episode pilot and the rest of the episodes.

+ I sat here for about five minutes trying to remember how I got hooked with House and can't remember. It was before I watched Lost I'm sure, but I can't remember how :S

+ Pretty much like with Criminal Minds. The first episode I watched was from season 2 I think, but I do remember it was damn hard find the first season online, like seriously, every link was broken. Anyway, I finally was able to watch it like a month or two later and it was amazing!

3. Five favourite characters of each fandom:

+ Jack Shephard, Ben Linus, Juliet Burke, Charlie Pace, Hugo Reyes 'Hurley'.

+ Aaron Hotchner 'Hotch', Penelope Garcia, David Rossi, Jennifer Jareau 'JJ', Emily Prentiss.

+ Harold Finch, John Reese, Lionel Fusco, Joss Carter, Carl Elias.

+ Gregory House, James Wilson, Remy Hadley 'Thirteen', Allison Cameron, Lisa Cuddy.

+ Patrick Jane, Teresa Lisbon, Wayne Rigsby, Grace Van Pelt, Kimball Cho.

3. Three favourite pairings in each fandom:

+ Charlie/Claire, Jack/Julier & Sun/Jin And I can't no say Desmond/Penny.

+ Hotch/Dave, Hotch/JJ & JJ/Will a little bit.

+ None so far.

+ Hmm, I don't think I ever shipped anyone, actually. Perhaps House/Cameron a little bit or House/Wilson. *shrug*

+ Jane/Lisbon and Van Pelt/Rigsby a bit.

5. Alright, what’s your favourite thing about each fandom?

+ All the mystery! Even if at the end not every question was answered, it was so much fun make theories about anything and speculate about everything; catching clues or discovering connections between characters. I love how much this show made me think, and how it pushed me to search and read about so many thing!

+ The interaction between the team. I think this is what makes CM so different from other shows like it (besides the profiling, of course) The way in which how at being forced to face such tough situation, this group of people so different every one had joined so tightly that have become a real family; something none of them, for several reasons, have never had before. *hugs them*

+ The relationship between Finch and Reese. Seriously, the thought of how a reclusive and paranoid billionaire can come to trust and feel certain affection for a broken killer and how a man who has been deceived by everyone in which he once trusted, and pushed by those same people to do horrifying things can come to trust on a man he knows nothing about is absolutely delicious and has been portrayed so flawlessly by both, Michael and Jim and the writers. *bows*

+ House's personality. Is there anything that can be added to this? He's just so different from any other character I've ever seen. The fact he's a doctor, but cannot stand to be near patients and that he's not afraid to speak his mind, to nobody is a marvelous combination, and if you add a character like Wilson, as his best friend, well, it's like 100% better.

+ The humor. Granted, the humor is mostly injected by Patrick Jane, but still, there's plety of  humor involving the rest of the characters.

6. What annoys you/do you hate most about each fandom?

+ Deaths. I know it was something realistic, it really would have been ridiculous that with so many things going on that strange island nobody died but still, I got so upset when Charlie, Juliet and Sun & Jin died. Jack's death had me crying my eyes out too, but it was the end already, so I wouldn't have been forced to keep watching Lost without him there, and I kind of suspected he was going to die at the end so...

+ All the excessive Reid love. I get he's a fan favorite, I really do, I'm as much fan of Hotch as some Reid fans are of him, but it really annoying me that some, not all of them, are not fully partial with the other characters. It makes me roll my eyes so hard read commets like; 'I want to know more about Reid, we barely knew about his past' or 'when are we getting a Reid centric episode, it's been forever since we got one' So they are big Reid fans and want more of him? Fine! But they need to acknowledge we know more about Reid of what we know about the rest of the characters, I mean we know more about him of what we know about JJ and Garcia together, for Gods sake!

+ The lack of fandom recognition of just who awesome this show is.The numbers are good, and there's been several mentions of who great PoI is in the media, but I feel like the fanbase is too small for a show as good as this. Don't get me wrong, I love all the fellow irrelevants, and how we all are totally die-hard fans, who participe any time we can and make and share all kind of stuff, but I wish we were more. Perhaps in time we will be, the quality of the show deserves it :D

+ The whole House/Cuddy thing. I think it was a mistake letting them get together. I loved the relationship between them before they become a couple, all the sexual tension between them was sexy and funny, and then they ruined it all by letting Huddy fans persuaded them to become it all something more.

+ The way the writers have stretched too much the whole Red John thing. I mean, every season finale they are about to catch him, and in the end they don't. So what? Are we gonna spend seven, eight season watching how they almost catch him? Don't they have something else to move forward the plot, or what?

7. Who is your favourite character in each fandom?

+ Jack Shephard. And not just because I think he's hot. I love the character!
+ Aaron Hotchner. Another leader I'm in love with :P
+ Harold Finch. And I must admit Michael Emerson is a bit the reason.
+ Gregory House. Plain and simple.
+ Patrick Jane. He's so funny!

8. Who is your least favourite character in each fandom?

+ Considering only the main ones, Kate Austen. The whole Sawyer/Jack/Kate love triangle made me hate her.
+ Spencer Reid. I like him, I just don't see anything especially unique or great about him.
+ Considering recurrent ones too, Jessica Arndt. Based only on the few we've seen of her so far.
+ Eric Foreman. I'm not really sure why, but I never really liked him.
+ Kimball Cho. He annoys me a lot of the time, but I can't really put my finger on it.

9. Have a crush on any main characters?

+ Jack Shephard <3
+ Aaron Hotchner
+ A bit on both, Harold Finch and John Reese.
+ A little bit on Gregory House.
+ Not really.

10. Anything you want to say to the creator(s) of each fandom?

+ Thank you so much for giving us six years (3 for me) of awesome quality tv with amazing characters, beautiful scenery, wonderful actors and smooth writing. This was the first show I fall in love with and obsessed about and I would never forget it.
+ Thank you for adding a character as wonderful and contrasting as Penelope Garcia to the show, she always light up the mood and gives a much needed balance to the dark tone of the show.
+ Thank you for all the awesome recurring characters, and the attention you all put into the writing of each one of them and in choosing the actors who would play them. They are one of the reasons why I love this show so much.
+ Thank you so much for create Gregory House. Such an awesome character will always be remembered <3
+ Keep doing the awesome work you all have done so far, but please, think about letting go the Red John plot already, before it really gets bad.
