TV Meme
TV meme snagged from
scrollgirl to prove I’m actually still in fandom, I swear!
Pick your five favourite TV shows (in no particular order) and answer the following questions about them. Don’t cheat!
1. Supernatural
2. Farscape
3. Doctor Who (RTD years)
4. Highlander
5. White Collar
Who is your favourite character in 2?
Farscape. Aeryn Sun. She's amazing. A "strong female character" who is actually complex and layered and human and real and, of course, awesome.
Who is your least favourite character in 1?
Supernatural. Can I call "the overwhelming misogyny that incessantly permeates the show" a character? Um, I guess not really.
Hmm. I'm not that inclined to dislike characters anymore (mostly because I don't have time!) but... let's choose the Ghostfacers. Really cliched male geek stereotypes that aren't 1/10 as funny as the writers think they are.
What's your favourite episode of 4?
Highlander. Comes a Horseman/Revelation 6:8. Of course.
What is your favourite season of 5?
White Collar. I guess season one? I only watched season two once. Though three is gearing up to be quite good.
What's your favourite ship in 3?
RTD Who. Ten/Rose. Mostly because I love Rose so much, and their "traveling through time to go to awesome concerts" is exactly what I would do! Though Ten/Simm!Master is close... maybe it's a tie.
Who is your anti-ship in 2?
Farscape. Hmmmm.... anything involving that annoying guy. Stark, right? And he was kind of with Zhaan? Ew.
How long have you watched 1?
Supernatural. It's now been officially over a year.
How did you become interested in 3?
RTD Who. Jaydk sat me down and made me watch all of season two and the last three episodes of season three. I came out of it hooked.
Who is your favourite actor in 4?
Highlander. Peter Wingfield. I keep getting the obvious questions for this one!
Which show do you prefer out of 1, 2, or 5?
Farscape is a better show, but Supernatural hits my kinks so perfectly....
Which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3?
Supernatural, even counting all those old Who serials I forced myself through at the height of my obsession.
If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be?
Highlander. Methos. Who wouldn't want to be brilliant, snarky, and immortal. Again with the obvious questions!
How would you kill off your favourite character in 2?
Farscape. The only way I'd kill of Aeryn is if it's in a way that would make sure Zhaan would bring her back again!
Give a random quote from 1.
Nah, I don't have time to look up quotes!
Would a 3/4 crossover work?
(Doctor Who/Highlander.) Oh yeah. I think I've read Methos/Doctor fic, actually.
Pair two characters in 1 that would make an unlikely, but strangely okay couple.
Supernatural - I have such a thing for Dean/Hendricksen. The actors had such chemistry, and I think the characters would really like and respect each other despite themselves.
Overall, which show has a better cast, 3 or 5?
Doctor Who definitely had the better cast. So many highly-trained, brilliant actors. White Collar is a lot of fun but I wouldn't call the quality of the acting one of its strengths (although the actors are perfectly cast for their roles).
Which has better theme music, 2 or 4?
Farscape or Highlander. You can't beat Queen for TV theme music, so it goes to Highlander.
