Day 21 - Favorite shipOhh, where to begin. Hello. My name is Badger, and I 'ship damn near everything ( Read more... )

God, I'm never gonna catch up.

Day 20 - Favorite kiss

This one's got a definite "Don't do this to me!" feel to it. I am a raging sucker for sweet moments (yeah, tomorrow's gonna kill me too), and trying to make me narrow it down to one is just cruel. So is trying to make me narrow it down to eight, which is the best I can do ( Read more... )

Yeah, I missed a day again. If you'd been here yesterday you'd understand.

Day 19 - Best TV show cast

This one was easy. There are a lot of shows I watch where the actors are amazing, and a lot of shows where a few particular actors spark together in amazing ways. But in order to praise something for having the best cast, it has to be something ( Read more... )

Day 18 - Favorite title sequence

I've got three today, and they're all available on Hulu and I recommend hunting them all down. (At least one has no Youtube presence; I did look.)

First is New Amsterdam. This is a hard one to describe because it doesn't really have a hook, it's just very, very pretty. Disappointing show, but I never got tired of ( Read more... )

Day 17 - Favorite mini series

This one's a dead tie. Two adaptations of brilliant bits of literature in mad and fantastical settings, full of warmth and charm and humor, and that's about all they have in common.

First up is Hogfather, one of my favorite Discworld books and most dfinitely my favorite of the BBC adaptations. The Disc is fully ( Read more... )

Day 16 - Your guilty pleasure show

Oh man, I hate non-answers, but I have to give one for this question. I don't do guilty pleasures, not in television and not in any other form of entertainment. Oh sure, I love a little brain candy now and then and feel no guilt for that, but there's a difference between liking something shallow or mindless and ( Read more... )

Day 15 - Favorite female character

This one was actually really easy. Not because there's a dearth of wonderful female characters in my favorite shows, or because I'm any less likely to fall in love with female characters, but because my brain fixated on an answer right away and refused to consider any other option. "Really?" I asked myself. "I ( Read more... )

Day 14 - Favorite male character

This was a tough one. I fall in love with characters the way I fall in love with shows, and well-developed, appealing characters are the reason I fall in love with shows. There's a long, long list of loves in my televisual history. Matt Parkman. Ned. Chuck Bartowski. John Casey. Sam Axe. The Middleman. Mulder. The ( Read more... )

Day 13 - Favorite childhood show I wasn't really into TV as a kid, at least not the way I am now. Had I been exposed to fandom as a child, I would have gravitated far more towards movies and might never have wandered over to the TV side of things. Also, I have this weird thing where I just don't remember much of my childhood and I don't care to. ( Read more... )

Two tonight, to start making up for lost time.

Day 12 - An episode you've watched more than 5 times

Let me say first off that I'm a serial rewatcher. If I've only seen a particular episode of a beloved show once, it was probably not a good episode. Hell, I can name several episodes of beloved shows that aren't good episodes, yet that I've still ( Read more... )
