I think my icon is from the actual good moment!! Whew.

That Firefly picspam is terribly, terribly pretty.

And _jems_! I did not know your favorite episode of Wonderfalls is "Karma Chameleon"! That episode cleared my sinuses! Literally! I love it so, and I feel that is underappreciated.

Night of the Comet is great fun. Now have you seen Night of the Creeps?

So many people have the bad moment and it drives me batty.

Firefly is terribly, terribly pretty, hence the prettiness of the picspam.

I didn't either! I don't think I've actually sat down and ordered them before, but it turns out, that's the one I love the best. I'm surprised Crime Dog ended up so high on the list because the first time I saw it I wasn't too impressed, but it's grown on me with every rewatch.

Nope, haven't seen Night of the Creeps.

Heh, that's funny because I figured "Crime Dog" was a given.

I honestly don't remember who "that guy" is in that VM cap. Is it from S3? Because I gave up on the show mid S3. Otherwise I feel like a bad (former) fan.

Your picspams of Firefly and Wonderfalls make me want to rewatch them right now! I haven't watched either in probably over a year, if not more. It's so weird seeing Christina Hendricks as YoSaffBridge now! And oh, Lee Pace in the doofy hat. Also, those two caps of Jaye and Aaron making the exact same face are PERFECT. They really cast that show quite well, in terms of family resemblance.

I look forward to the rest of your top five shows!

Yep. From the show's only two-episode mystery!

That guy would have appeared after you quit the show, and I think my point was mostly that he's a nobody and as such it's kind of weird to have an icon of him. Of course, I have an icon of a guest star on a show that was canceled after four episodes, so I'm not saying it's wrong, I just think people don't even know, you know?

You and me both! I've been rewatching my number one pick lately, but putting together this picspam desperately made me want to put that on pause and pop in these two. The two of them wouldn't take more than a weekend, all told, so why not?

I love the sibling relationships on Wonderfalls the best. I'm only sad we never really got to see much of Aaron and Sharon's relationship, only their respective ones with Jaye.

I'm in it for the long haul, this top five thing is going to take forever. But at least I'm never at a loss of things to post about.

Me too! And I think I should rewatch Firefly soon because I'm down to just two icons! That's not right.

I have such a hard time separating an image from the events going on around it, so using scenes with text that feels emotionally false is just icky to me.

Just as it should be! And I want to rewatch too, which is just insane considering how many shows I'm in the process of rewatching right now. Not to mention the ones I haven't even watched yet!

I love your cap choices for Firefly. Just looking at them has me wanting to put the dvds in.

As to that Buffy screencap, it is a heartbreaking moment, one of distance with such a strong longing to be close. I think a lot of icon-makers use it because the colors are so nice (especially in full view rather than the close up shot above), and their expressions are so moving.

It breaks my heart that there weren't more Firefly episodes. If a top five list can consist of those episodes and there were only fourteen in all? Just imagine if we'd gotten several seasons.

I can't help but feel that that Buffy moment feels completely false. It's Xander and Willow taking Buffy at face value because they don't want even a hint of them possibly being wrong, and Buffy knowing this and therefore hiding her pain because she knows that they can't help her anyway - she's always supposed to be the strong one, not them.
