nodazzle's LJ. It's awesome, so I share it with you, flist. ;)
Pick your five favorite TV shows (in no particular order) and answer the following questions.
1. Stargate Atlantis
2. X-Files
3. Battlestar Galactica
4. Homicide: Life on the Street
5. Supernatural
01. Who's your favourite character in 2?
I don’t think I can choose between Mulder and Scully. But if it’s with the stipulation that they’re a hairsbreadth apart, I’d choose Dana Scully. I feel so dirty.
02. Who's your least favourite character in 1?
Larrin. I know everyone else hates Jennifer Keller, and she’s definitely lacking something, but I HATE Larrin, like real hatred. I want someone to punch her in the babymaker something awful.
03. What's your favourite episode of 4?
OMG, man. So many. Colors is really good. So is A Many Splendored Thing. And All Through the House.
04. What's your favourite season of 5?
Season two. Definitely.
05. Who are you favourite ship in 3?
Aside from the good ship Galactica or Kara’s hotwired cylon raider? Ehehehe… Caprica/Gaius. I don’t care much for any other ship on BSG.
06. Who are your antiship in 2?
Antiship like a ship you hate or antiship, like so bad it’s good? My most hated ship on XF is probably Marita/Krycek. It just kind of grosses me out. I had a longstanding hatred of Scully/Skinner, but I’ve cooled my heels and don’t care anymore.
07. How long have you watched 1?
Two years. I only ever saw the last two episodes of season five on air (in the middle of the marathon I was watching).
08. How did you become interested in 3?
My sister thought it was really weird that they genderswapped Kara Thrace in the 2003 version and after a good deal of speculation on heteronormative practices on the televisor, we watched it anyway. I still think it’s plenty heteronormative, but Kara Thrace is freaking AWESOME either way.
09. Who's your favourite actor/actress in 4?
Guess it’s Kyle Secor. Tim is less abrasive than Frank, the other part of my ship there. Plus Kyle Secor has all these fantastic things he does with himself. Adorable things. He’s always biting his lips and knitting his eyebrows, and those (whaddya call them) elevens – and I love that look that he gets when he’s desperately trying to understand something painful.
10. Which do you prefer: Season 1 of 2 or 5?
I don’t know! I’m going to go against my nature and say, SPN (5) because I think season 1 might have been its most X-Filey and that’s a god damn good thing.
11. Which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3?
I’ll come out of the closet and admit that there are five episodes of SGA I’ve never seen. I can’t bring myself to watch them. So I’ve just technically seen more BSG (since I’ve seen all the episodes of BSG as well as the tv movies, both of which kind of sucked if you ask me).
12. If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be?
I’d be Kay Howard, though I might like being Al Giardello, too. He’s the fucking best. If I was Frank, though, I could snag a grade A hottie. Hmm. Decisions.
13. How would you kill off your favourite character in 1?
Oh, this is unbelievably difficult. I’ll just say that John and Rodney would kiss as all hell was breaking loose around them and the end was nigh. (And then maybe they get beamed up on the Daedalus).
14. Give a random quote from 5?
“Don’t forget the pie.” Don’t ask me why. Don’t know. Just jumped out there.
15. This question disappeared... I will randomly insert another: What's your favourite scene from 2?
Man, that is so fucking hard. Especially because XF is EPIC. There were nine seasons and two theatrically released movies and here’s hoping there’ll be more. What’s a scene that perfectly exemplifies Mulder and Scully’s heartbreaking devotion to each other as well as their fantastic senses of humor and chemistry? I’ll go with that one.
16. Would a 3/4 crossover work?
I’m going to say no, but now the idea will no doubt plague me.
17. Pair 2 characters in 1 that would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple.
Okay, I can do this! I’m just going to say Radek Zelenka/Teyla Emmagan. I know, it’s weird, but think about it. They’d begin their unlikely friendship in the mess hall and Zelenka would teach Teyla how to play chess. He’d think she was way out of his league, she’d find reasons to come to the lab when he was working late into the evening. Their strange, tentative friendship would be like an uneven little dance. Then something happens. Maybe it’s late or maybe it’s unexpected. She extends herself first, surprising him, but he gets on board quickly, flustered and bemused by her advances. They kiss. It’s capital-A awesome. John and Rodney are happy for them. ;p
18. Has 5 inspired you in any way?
I’ve started listening to way more classic rock. As in, it was never and now it’s sometimes. Their song choices kick ass.
19. Overall, which show has a better cast, 2 or 4?
Overall? I’m weighing negatives and XF comes out on top because Homicide had both Falsone (omg I fucking hate him) and Gharty and Ballard (who became more okay but generally sucks) whereas XF had fewer characters I wanted to club even if some of them weren’t particularly artfully rendered.
20. Which has better theme music, 3 or 5?
Supernatural though BSG’s music was BADASS, Carry On My Wayward Son cinched it.
