I Had No Idea Ms. mizuno_youko Watched Such Geeky Shows

[01] -- Go to IMDB.com and look up 10 of your TV shows.
[02] -- Post three official IMDB "Plot Keywords" for [each of] these picks.
[03] -- Have your friends guess the show names [preferably without looking them up].

It doesn't say what it means by "your TV shows," so I just randomly picked a bunch that I like and that had enough keywords.

How Many Indeed? archlords October 18 2009, 20:41:34 UTC

I can't tell you unless you're going to guess it. . . .

Admittedly, not all of them seem specific enough to pinpoint individual series. So you have to think, "Which ones does archlords watch?"
I've talked about some of them here, limited only by the fact that I get tired of talking to a wall.

All correct.

And now, I can tell you, there are two. It shouldn't take you many guesses to figure out which one I watch.

The only ones I could guess at were 1 (CSI: New York or CSI: Miami?), 3 (Arrested Development?), and 9 (Star Trek: The Next Generation?).
I generally like sci-fi shows. We've been slowly working our way through some on Hulu and Netflix. Right now we're on Kyle XY and Stargate: SG-1.

Not to Be Confused with the Rank Named "General" archlords October 20 2009, 22:23:26 UTC

1. Yes, but this isn't twenty questions. . . .

3. No, I haven't even seen that. The blurb doesn't seem to explain the explosions. . . .

9. Yes.

Heh. I used Stargate in the previous one even though I've barely watched it, since it had a quote I remembered.

1. Okay, true. I'll go with CSI: New York.
3. I've forgotten if there were explosions or just fire and random destruction. Anyway, I like Mythbusters too. I think the "Segway" keyword threw me off.

Funny coincidence: The episode we watched yesterday had the "You ended that sentence with a preposition! You bastard!" line.

1. Close, but no

3. Admittedly, the Segway doesn't do anything other than allow Adam (and occasionally Jamie) to look goofy. User-provided keywords don't exactly follow the scientific method.

Funny Coincidence: Yeah memorable quotes

1 is NCIS: Los Angeles

2 would be NCIS the original (combining babe scientist with DNA made me think Abby)

I had no idea you knew anything of those, either, but I'm afraid that's incorrect. You can see others' responses for further clues on that.

4 - The Simpsons because Evil Capitalist is probably Mr. Burns.
