Back in the Day: 5 TV Shows You Loved As A Kid
1. Avonlea I was over the moon for this show, when I was little. Ezekiel Crane the scurvy sailor! Peg Bowan the Witch of Avonlea! That time there was an eclipse and little Sarah, Felix, Felicity, and Cecily hid in the light house and waited for the world to end? And that other time they thought poor Jasper Dale was a vampire because Sarah was reading Dracula? And then Gus Pike went off to sea, and he came back blind, and he tracked down Felicity, but I can't remember if this was before or after he went blind...Oh man. OH MAN.

3. The Secret World of Alex Mac
4. Eureka's Castle

What? No, No, I Don't Watch That...: 5 Guilty Pleasure TV Shows
1) Scrubs I have no idea why this is a guilty pleasure show, but for some reason I am really embarassed that I like it...><;;;;
2) US Queer As Folk I love this show so much, I'm not really sure I should list it as a "guilty pleasure". But...dude...the puns are so bad. SO BAD. SO AWESOMELY BAD. Witness: "Are you coming or going? Or coming...and then going? Or coming...and staying?" Or, in season 4 when Brian had testicular cancer, and went for surgery and when they asked how he was, he goes, "I'm having a ball". And Ted asked him why he was being "so testy"? Yep. Guilty.

3) The ending/resolution to The Doctor Dances is, possibly the most beautiful ending to any episode I have ever seen on tv ever. Ever. YAY STEPHEN MOFFAT! I WANNA WRITE AS WELL AS YOU SOMEDAY! [Dr. Who]
4) Okay...there are so many Buffy moments here...I could do this whole quiz in Buffy answers, so let me just say, the last scene of Helpless, when the Scoobies are hanging out and Xander can't open the peanut butter. It's not a memorable scene at all, but...I don't know...it was just the way they acted around each other, it made me feel better. I liked that they could still laugh and be ridiculous with each other, even though the world they lived in was just...terrifying. That's what stood out to me about Buffy when I first started watching, and why I kept watching from then on in. ^^ [BtVS]
5) And okay...Becoming Parts 1 and 2. I had to [BtVS]

(is that right? almost right?) Ohh but seriously, the actual intro music is really pretty! (Forever Knight)
3) "Take my love, take my land, take me where I cannot stand! I don't care, I'm still free! You can't take the sky from me! (and so forth)" [Firefly]

That's What She Said: 5 Quotes That Still Resonate
1) There are moments in your life that make you. That set the course for who you're gonna be. Sometimes they're little, subtle moments. Sometimes they're not. [...] Bottom line is, even if you see 'em coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really, but it does. So what are we? Helpless? Puppets? The big moments are gonna come, you can't help that. But it's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are.-Whistler, Becoming Part 2 [BtVS]
2) Everybody lives, Rose! Just this once...Everybody lives!-9th Doctor, The Doctor Dances [Dr. Who] I know it doesn't look that amazing written out..but just..when you hear him say it, and you hear how damn joyful he sounds...It's fantastic! ^^
3) Mulder: Scully, I was like you once-I didn't know who to trust. Then I... I chose another path...another life, another fate, where I found my sister. The end of my world was unrecognisable and upside down. There was one thing that remained the same. You...were my friend, and you told me the truth. Even when the world was falling apart, you were my constant...my touchstone.
Scully: And you are mine. The Sixth Extinction II: Amor Fati [The X-Files]
4)When my sister was little she used to close her eyes everytime she wanted to hide. She thought that it made her disappear. When you get older you learn that closing your eyes just makes it darker. You have to face everything, even death, if you want to grow up.-George [Dead Like Me]
5)You gotta know the darker, uglier sides of yourself. You gotta recognize them, so that they're not constantly sneaking up on you. You gotta love 'em, 'cause they're part of you, because along with your virtues, they make you who you are. Virtue isn't virtue unless it slams up against vice. So consequently, your virtue's not real virtue until it's been tested. . . tempted.-Frank Pembleton, A Many Splendored Thing [Homicide: Life on The Streets]
