Day 21 - Favorite ship

Runners up: Mitchell/Annie from Being HumanWhereas Annie's relationship with George is purely sister/brother, with Mitchell we can sense a mutual attraction. They'd make a good couple. Mitchell's being a vampire can be dangerous to his love interests, but since Annie is a ghost, he doesn't have to worry about accidentally ( Read more... )

Day 20 - Favorite kiss

This one had me stumped for a while, until I remembered my guilty pleasure show. Out of the many Beecher/Keller kisses on YouTube I picked this one, because it is just a sweet kiss with no added Drama ( Read more... )

Day 19 - Best t.v. show cast

Of course the usual suspects (Life on Mars, The Singing Detective) have a formidable cast, and no doubt several others do as well, but I decided to give the honours to The League of Gentlemen. Three actors playing most of the characters and managing to give each one a distinctive personality is no mean feat in my book ( Read more... )

Day 18 - Favorite title sequence

I had to think really long and hard before I came up with Six Feet Under and Dead Like Me. I guess I don't pay that much attention to title sequences.

Good theme music, on the other hand, I find very important. Sometimes the music is the best part of the series, and therefore I'd like to change this to: Favourite ( Read more... )

Day 17 - Favorite mini series

Favourite British: The Singing Detective, and much love also for Casanova.

Favourite American: Angels in America.

Day 16 - Your guilty pleasure show

( Confession time! )

Day 15 - Favorite female character

I may have forgotten a few, but Patsy in Ab Fab, Lucille Bluth in Arrested Development, Diana in Waiting for God, Delores Herbig in Dead Like Me, Phyllis in Life on Mars, Shaz in Ashes to Ashes, Zoey in Nurse Jackie, Pauline in The League of Gentlemen, and Annie from Being Human are the ones I can come up with ( Read more... )

Day 14 - Favorite male character

Oh god, where do I begin? The fun thing about this meme is that it makes me think of series that have all but disappeared in the mists of time.

Tom Conti's character in The Glittering Prizes (WHY has this only been released as a region 1 DVD??), Derek Jacobi as Claudius, Sir Humphrey in Yes, (Prime) Minister, ( Read more... )

Day 13 - Favorite childhood show

Ja zuster, nee zuster ("yes nurse, no nurse") ran from 1966 to 1968 and was an extremely popular children's/family programme written by Annie M.G. Schmidt, with music by Harry Bannink. I remember always watching it together with my mum on Saturday afternoons, and I still have the LPs with the songs and a book ( Read more... )

Day 12 - An episode you’ve watched more than 5 times

More than five times, hmm, that is quite a lot. I have watched the whole first series of Life on Mars 6 times. The second series only 5 times, so that doesn't count.

You'd think older series would have the advantage, but the only episodes I'm fairly sure can qualify are "Beer" (Blackadder II) ( Read more... )
