Aug. 12th, 2005 02:00 pmYes, I said I'd rant, but, well, not yet. Just a meme, gakked from the lovely
jade_plume.
01. Post a list of 10 TV shows you watch (current or cancelled!)
02. Have your friends list guess your favourite character from each show
03. When guessed bold the line and write a sentence about why you like that character
1 - Farscape
Second time's the charm,
jade_plume. Chiana! Because of her looks, and the way she moves, and her interaction with Crichton, and her relationship with D'Argo (sp?), and herself really. She's just so interesting.
But Aeryn was a very close second.
2 - Boomtown
*points at the icon* That was giving it away, really. Yep,
jade_plume again, it was Joel. Donnie Wahlberg's fault. Because he's such a good guy, and so lost with his wife, and I love his interaction with Fearless, and Donnie plays him so wonderfully. He smiles and I'm happy. (David McNorris came a close second, for the record.)
3 - Six Feet Under
That one puzzled a lot of people, but
heikki_cheren knew of my love for Billy. Yes, Billy Chenowitz, psycho brother to Brenda. What can I say? He fascinates me. Yeah, I know he's sick. Duh. But he is so very interesting a character, in his own right and in the issues and stories he brings forth. And, also, Jeremy Sisto (complete with his voice), which doesn't hurt.
4 - Lost
Jack, as guessed (and on his first try, too...ish) by
the_swordman. After much debate with myself, I chose Jack over the more predictable Sawyer, simply because I don't know whether I could write Jack. Sawyer I know from head to toe. Jack... I'm learning to know the character, and I'm loving each new discovery. Plus, Foxy can break me with a look.
5 - Oz
As
the_swordman guessed, it's Ryan O'Reilly! I love Ryan. Always have. Opportunistic, completely sick and twisted vision of love, great stuff with his brother and with the doc, absolute bastard when it serves him best, all-out survivor and hottie, and I wanna see Dean play Iago some day!!!
6 - Carnivale
Jonesy! I knew you'd get it,
heikki_cheren. Why? He's so flawed, and so human, and I just love him so very much. I don't truly know why. But he just keeps breaking my heart.
7 - Ultraviolet
Vaughan Rice, as was guessed by
the_swordman. He's got the best lines, and I'd have loved to see more about him. His interaction with Mike I love too. And, of course, unrequited love.
8 - Queer as Folk UK
Stuart. (Not Stewart. *raises an eyebrow at Jo*) Do I even have to say why? Everything about him is sex. And I love it. And him. And the lovely Aidan Gillen, who's so very much nothing like Stuart in truth.
9 - The L Word
It's, of course, Shane, as
jade_plume guessed. What can I say? I adore Katherine Moennig, and Shane isn't only sexy as hell, she's also a really interesting character. Plus, her voice. Doesn't hurt.
10 - Sports Night
It was Dan, as guessed by
the_swordman. I've always felt closer to Dan than to Casey, and I loved Josh Charles from Dead Poets Society. I mean, I can't really say why I love Dan more than any of the other characters, because on that show? They're all fucking brilliant. But I do. For the same reasons I love the others, except I love him more: because he's neurotic, and witty, and sexy, and damn, I just love the guy. I don't need to justify myself!
I wish I could put Firefly, but I couldn't pick a favourite. Same thing for Doctor Who, DS9 and Babylon 5. (Hey, why only sci-fi shows?)

Did I get all of my tries for you wrong?

You might wanna try Jonesy for #6... ;-)
*cough*
Ahem...
*walks away trying to whistle innocently*
no subject
Date: 2005-08-12 02:42 pm (UTC)Locke and Lodz I put in the same area of "very interesting, well-done, horrifying bastards." Locke maybe less so than Lodz, but still.
And no! Not Tobias! Even though I love him too. But no. I feel myself wanting see Oz again a lot these days, by the way, very frustrating.
Nope, not Jeremy. Again, I love them all, but there's one that's totally my favourite. Come on, I'm predictable. (It is a hard game, innit?)
key west and binoculars
Date: 2005-08-12 02:53 pm (UTC)8 - Stuart? (No i'll stay here for tonight. hell is my destination for tomorrow night.)
7 - Seaborn? (it's like he was born in the sea!!!!)
4 - Charlie? and once you say no, Sawyer?
Re: key west and binoculars
Date: 2005-08-12 02:55 pm (UTC)Re: key west and binoculars
Date: 2005-08-12 02:58 pm (UTC)8 - Yes. That was hard.
7 - THERE'S NO SEABORN IN ULTRAVIOLET!!! Ahem. (Don't mind her, people, she has a bit of a worship-for-Sam thing going on. I think it's because she feels kinship.)
4 - Nope, but he came a very very very close second. Very close.
Re: key west and binoculars
Date: 2005-08-12 03:02 pm (UTC)SAM SEABORN as ruler of the WORLD!!!!!!
Re: key west and binoculars
Date: 2005-08-12 03:04 pm (UTC)I say CAPTAIN JACK HARKNESS as ruler of the WORLD!!!!!

Then we'd all be shagging who we want and there would be no problems with same sex (or even polygamous) marriages.

Date: 2005-08-22 12:39 am (UTC)Not that these scenes were ever really funny, mind you, but at least they didn't seem THAT awful and horrible. As long as you didn't think too hard to them. Which I didn't use to do when reading the comics...

7/ Michael ?
Have to do that quick, I´m just passing by :)

Date: 2005-08-13 12:17 pm (UTC)they totally betrayed his characterhe killed Ethan.5/ Nope. Though I do love him. But no. Come on, Fred, you know me. You know the kind of character I love. It's easy! Who else could it be?
7/ Second favourite. My favourite favourite has the best lines of the show. (Come on, you're the only one who can do that one.)
no subject
Date: 2005-08-14 09:14 am (UTC)5/ You love the cheeky ones usually ;) Keller then ?
6/ Could it be Rice ? I´ve got other names I shall try if these fail. I won´t let you down ;)
no subject
Date: 2005-08-14 03:47 pm (UTC)5/ He's my second best. I adore him so. I hesitated between him and the one it actually is. Come on!
6/ Yes! I knew I could count on you. Vaughan rocks.
no subject
Date: 2005-08-15 02:49 am (UTC)how many attempts do I have ?
Hmmm... Not Charlie, not Sawyer, not Sayid, I guess it´s nor Kate, neither Jack.
It left me with Hurley, Locke and Jin... Shall we say Jin then ?
5/ I only have seen a few selected Oz episodes during a week end I spent at a friend last year. I don´t remember all the characters.
Shillinger ? (spel ?)
6/ I got one, I got one, I got one, I got one, I got one, I got one... Sorry, stopping now :)
no subject
Date: 2005-08-15 10:53 am (UTC)5/ Nooooo!!!!!!!!!
Argh!!
I mean, ok, you can't have Beecher without having Schillinger, and I love his actor, but... so not.
6/ lol. Congrats!
no subject
Date: 2005-08-16 08:47 am (UTC)5/ Schillinger is a bastard but he´s an interesting character, in the selected few episodes I´ve been shown, I mostly saw the redeeming parts. Plus JK Simmons is a fucking genius, such an underestimated actor. He can play anything.
Well, Alvarez ?
10/ I used to watch this show after all, so why not give it a try ? Maybe Dan ?
no subject
Date: 2005-08-16 09:01 am (UTC)And not. So not. I never really grew very fond of Miguel.
10/ Yessss! I love Dan on so many levels. Congrats!

Date: 2005-08-16 09:03 am (UTC)No you're not.
*sighs* You're so full of misconceptions about me and Lost. I can change my mind. Remember how I used to love Kate?
*helps you*

no subject
Date: 2005-08-16 09:23 am (UTC)Oz: still not. McManus is far too much of an idealist and sometimes of a hypocrit for me. But thanks for playing! *helps you again* What I wouldn't do for you...

no subject
Date: 2005-08-18 09:09 am (UTC)But no. Another actor/actress I love is playing my favourite character, though, but I don't know whether you know of my love for him/her. If you still can't find it I'll help you with another icon.

Ok, sometimes no name is fine too. Maybe even better. But "Billy" it is. I haven't seen him since a while. Maybe I should watch that Julius Cesar tape of mine.
