laylee at 10:25pm on 03/02/2008 under buffy the vampire slayer, doctor who, memes, sports night, supernatural, the west wing, tvGood lord I'm spammy tonight!
TV meme gakked from around:
Choose five series (no peeking before you choose them), list them, and then answer the questions behind the cut.
1. Sports Night
2. Supernatural
3. The West Wing
4. Buffy the Vampire Slayer
5. Doctor Who
1. Which is your favorite series from your list? And why?
Doctor Who has been my number one TV show since I was about 8. I've always loved it, from the shaky sets and hammy acting of the earliest seasons, to the not so shaky sets and sometimes hammy acting of the most recent incarnation. I don't know why I love it so much, I just know that I do and that's good enough for me.
2. If you were to pair two characters from 1 and 4, who would they be?
God, that's a hard one. I'd love to see Giles and Jeremy geek out over trivial points of folk law, while I'm sure Willow and Natalie would be a pair to be recconed with if they ever joined forces. Xander and Danny would be cracking jokes while they fought the bad guys, and I can just see Isaac and Joyce having very interesting discussions about art and the trials and tribulations of raising daughters.
3. What is one thing you'd like to change about 3's plot line?
It's very hard to mess with perfection, but I do wish I could go back in time and ask Aaron Sorkin and John Wells to beef up Sam's role just so Rob Lowe would stick around a while longer.
4. If both main characters of 2 and 5 were falling off a cliff, which one would you save?
The Doctor can regenerate if his body suffers massive trauma, whereas Sam and Dean can't. Sorry, Doc, but the boys get my vote.
5. Which event was the most horrible for you in 1?
The disintegration of Dan and Casey's friendship in season two. Even though I know they eventually work it out, it doesn't make it any less painful to watch them tear each other to shreds in Draft Day 1 & 2.
6. Which is your least favorite character of 2?
Bela. I just cannot stand her. She's such a poorly conceived, badly written character who is obviously just there to provide more network prescribed T&A that I want to claw my eyes out anytime she shows up on my TV screen.
7. If the antagonist of 3 were to rape the main character of 1, what would you do?
Good lord, I don't even want to contemplate that!
8. What song reminds you of 5?
There's only one song that reminds me of #5 and you all know what that is ;~)
9. Of 1, 3, and 5, which is the easiest to think about?
At the moment, The West Wing cos I'm in the middle of a viewing marathon and it just fills me with so much glee!
10. Are the protagonists of 2 and 4 similar?
They are, actually. Both Buffy and Sam and Dean are doing a job that really no one else can do and it's a hell of a burden to bear. They've given up any chance of having a normal life because of it and even though there are people on their side who will help them no matter what, they all know that when it comes right down to it, they are completely alone in this battle.
