A show that should have never been canceled. Moonlight. With some CBS scheduling antics and then the disastrous writer's strike, it never had a chance to hit its stride. It deserved at least a whole, undisturbed first season.
A show that you wish more people were watching. Survivor. We could talk about it endlessly!
Your favorite new show (aired this t.v season). Glee and Vampire Diaries. They're both so enjoyable and so different from each other, I can't narrow it down to one.
Your favorite show ever. The Muppet Show
Favorite episode of your favorite t.v show. Episode 524: Special Guest Roger Moore!
Least favorite episode of your favorite t.v show. Seriously, I can't do that.
A show everyone should watch. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (I dare you not to cry in the first ten minutes.)
Best scene ever. On MacGuyver, when he was sealing some kind of nuclear material leak with some chocolate bars from the vending machine. That was classic.
A show you thought you wouldn’t like but ended up loving. CSI. My brother forced me to watch it in Season one and I loved it until Grissom left.
A show that disappointed you. Lost. I wanted a show about the isolated survivors of a commercial airline crash finding a way to create a new society on a small island, ala Swiss Family Robinson. FAIL!
An episode you’ve watched more than 5 times. Moonlight, the episode "B.C" where Beth took the vampire blood drug and went all sex-crazed and silly.
Favorite childhood show. She-Ra: Princess of Power! I also loved Adventures in Wonderland in the 90s.
Favorite male character. Damon from Vampire Diaries is a current favorite.
Favorite female character. Rogue from X-Men: The Animated Series
Your guilty pleasure show. The Tudors
Favorite mini series. Pride and Prejudice with Colin Firth
Favorite title sequence. MacGuyver! I can still hum the song today!
Best t.v show cast. House
Favorite kiss. Hmmmm. How about when Spike and Buffy were making out and the abandoned building was falling around them? That was a cool one. :D
Favorite ship. I don't understand "ship". Does that mean relationship? If so, how about Rogue/Gambit (X-Men Animated) or Damon/Elena (Vampire Diaries)? Tortured and impossible is how I roll.
Favorite series finale. I'm never satisfied with the finales.
Most annoying character. I don't know about most annoying, but I found Willow from Buffy pretty unbearable. (Sorry, folks! :D)
Best quote. I'm not a good quote rememberer. I did see a clip that I loved from True Blood that went something like this:
Bill:"...He's forced you to drink his blood."
Sookie:"No! No!"
Bill:"You're connected, he'll be able to sense your emotions."
Sookie to Eric:"You big lying A-hole! *hits Eric*
Eric: "Bill, you're right. I believe I can sense her emotions."
A show you plan on watching (old or new). I plan on catching up with Tudors and True Blood.
OMG WTF? Season finale. Ask me tomorrow.
Best pilot episode. Hmm. How about X-Men: The Animated Series. I was hooked!
First t.v show obsession. Obsession? My Little Pony
Current t.v show obsession. Vampire Diaries.
Saddest character death. This may not be television, but I have still not recovered from Goose's death in Top Gun.

You never post about Whampire Diaries, um Vampire Diaries any more! How are we discuss the endless angst?

[sugarmaplelife.livejournal.com]

I know! I need to start back up with that. I've not had my fix of angst-analysis in like, a month! :D

If you like Muppets, and I do - I love them, you should be friends with the_rainbow_jen, one of my good friends and a HUGE Jim Henson fan. :)

Swiss Family Robinson was awesome. Just saying.

She-Ra and Adventures in Wonderland! :)

Oh, damn. I should change my answer re: miniseries. Colin Firth in P&P is the best ever.

Love Spike and Buffy!

I love the Muppets. I always wanted to grow up to marry Fozzie Bear. Now, I'm just planning to put together a big, beautiful memorabilia room in a future home. :D

My favorites were the Balcony Guys (I forget their names) from the Muppet Show, Rolph the piano-playing dog, Grover and Cookie Monster. :)

I LOVE Survivor. I love when people get blindsided at tribal council, especially in the last season and this season with the Evil Russell (I actually think he may be the most cunning of all the survivors, slick and slimy at times, but always playing his game theory) So yeah, ever want to talk about an epi, I am here for you :)

You didn't like Willow? Was it the way she talked through her nose (kind of annoyed me a little) but I always thought she was hot. Maybe I have just always been into the smarty-pants geeks :)

I'm loving this season of Survivor. I think Russell really *is* the best survivor ever. We'll see how he holds his own against Parvati, who is another kinda unbeatable player. He's a scum but he never forgets, for a second, that this is a game of dog eat dog. Love it!

Yeah, Willow's nasal voice and her kinda stuttering nervous character drove me slowly nuts. :) In theory I like the witch/lesbian stuff, but in practice, I didn't like the character.

Ah, TV. You know I'm not going to be able to resist this, right? ;)

I didn't know you were a Gleek! I LOVE Glee! I love singing along to the songs, the snappy dialogue, the one-liners - all of it!

It's weird, when I watch it I feel obligated to love Finn, since he bears my son's name, but I am really fond of Will, and am becoming fonder and fonder of Kurt. Though I do hope my Finn grows up to have as big a heart as Glee's Finn!
