sorchasilver Pick your five favorite TV shows (in no particular order) and answer the following questions. Don't cheat!
To make this easier to pin down to five, I picked my favourite five still airing shows.
1. Supernatural
2. Leverage
3. Friday Night Lights
4. Fringe
5. Dexter
1. Who's your favourite character in 2? (Leverage)
Hardison. It's alllll about Hardison for me, with Eliot and Parker very close behind.
02. Who's your least favourite character in 1?(SPN)
Castiel. And no, it isn't because I don't love Misha, I have to say I rather adore him. But Castiel just doesn't interest me in the slightest. Maybe that'll change with S5, I dunno. I'm not interested in him as a main character AT ALL, but we'll see!
03. What's your favourite episode of 4? (Fringe)
Hmmmmm. Probably the season finale. So many twists and turns and OMG WALTER *hearts forever*
04. What's your favourite season of 5? (Dexter)
DEFINITELY Season 1. I adored the cat and mouse game Dexter played with The Ice Truck Killer, and the twist? INCREDIBLE. I felt S2 and 3 lacked a little because of the lack of that nemesis/kindred spirit thing, but from what I've heard, it looks like S4 should be touching on that again, yay!
05. Who is your favourite ship in 3? (FNL)
Riggs/Street/Garrity. And no, it is NOT CHEATING. That scene? In Mexico? GOOD LORD.
06. Who is your antiship in 2? (Leverage)
Nate/Sophie. Well, Nate in general bores the everloving FUCK out of me, and Sophie deserves better. Preferably Eliot. ASDKLFJASLDKFJLAS SO HOT.
07. How long have you watched 1? (SPN)
I've watched it ever since the unaired pilot surfaced on BitTorrent back in 1995, and I was BLOWN AWAY. But I joined the fandom proper in S2.
08. How did you become interested in 3? (FNL)
I had heard such a lot about it, but didn't watch it at first because football was just not my thinbg AT ALL. Then I believe
topaz119 made a post (or linked to it, I can't remember) about why people should watch it and that it was SO NOT about the football and I watched the pilot and BAWLED MY EYES OUT. I was hooked from the get-go.
09. Who's your favourite actor/actress in 4? (Fringe)
Gotta be John Noble. He is PHENOMENAL. Though that entire cast is amazing, so it is NO reflection on them whatsoever. It's just hard to not give the man his props, because his performance as Walter would keep me watching, even if the rest of the show sucked. It's an Emmyworthy performance if I ever saw one. Of course he'll never get nommed, because it's a genre show. Grrrr.
10. Which do you prefer: Show 1, 2 or 5? (SPN, Leverage or Dexter)
Oh that's a tough one. I think it would probably come down to SPN or Dexter, and the two are just such polar opposites that I can't even say they're in direct competition in my head. SPN is my fannish mainstay, but Dexter is my serious thinky show. How's that for a dodge? *g*
11. Which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3? (SPN or FNL)
That's easy. 82 episodes of SPN versus 50 of FNL.
12. If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be? (Fringe)
Peter. He's so smart and level-headed and such a good son. Yet he's had his share of darkness and dodginess too, so he isn't perfect.
13. How would you kill off your favourite character in 1? (SPN)
Well, both my boys have died more than once, so that's kinda a moot point. And no, I would not choose between Sam and Dean as favourite.
14. Give a random quote from 1? (SPN)
"I am the prophet... Chuck."
16. Would a 3/4 crossover work? (FNL/Fringe)
Uh... no.
17. Pair 2 characters in 1 that would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple. (SPN)
Bobby and Chuck. Chuck could sit around in his pyjamas and Bobby could be all crotchety and trying to clean up around him while Chuck writes everything he is going to say before he says it.
(There was no question 18 on the meme when I stole it! *shrugs* Feel free to make one up and ask me!)
19. Overall, which show has a better cast, 2 or 4? (Leverage or Fringe)
Nope. Not going there. Both casts are awesome.
20. Which has better theme music, 3 or 5? (FNL or Dexter)
Ooooh, that's a tough call, actually. I ADORE the theme music for FNL and they have a great soundtrack, but Dexter has an amazing score. Hmmmmm. I might have to go with FNL because the music is so much a part of that show.
