tv character meme
Apr. 4th, 2005 12:18 amI said I wouldn't do this... but I'm waiting for a download to go through, so I might as well. *Shrugs* Meme gacked from pretty much everybody on my friends-list.
a. Post a list of up to 20 TV shows you watch (current or cancelled!)
b. Have your friends list guess your favourite CHARACTER from each show and ship/pairing
c. When guessed bold the line for character and italicise for pairing and write a sentence about why you like that character or pairing.
d. Post in your own livejournal.
In no particular order:
1. Highlander I was only vaguely amused by the show until Methos walked in, and after that I was completely hooked. Methos/Alexa steals my heart away, purely because it's clear how much he loves her, and because she's not your typical stunningly perfect model type. I love a guy who loves a normal looking girl.
2. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Yeah, as soon as I was old enough for the vibe to click, Garak/Bashir became my favorite pairing - there's such a playful dynamic between the two of them, and I adore both characters. They're not my favorites, though... that goes to Kira. I was young enough that she and Dax were pretty major role-models, as fictional characters go. Nowadays, I would lean more toward aspiring to be like Dax, but Kira was so totally my hero when I was younger, and I still completely adore that character.
3. The X-Files Mulder's great, but Scully's bull-headed determination to stick to science without being completely closed-minded just delights me. Besides, I love the looks she shoots him when he's being stupid.
4. Earth Final Conflict (until it sucked)
5. Star Trek: Voyager I love bitter, sardonic old bastards, apparently - and the Doctor is a perfect example. So funny. No pairing for this show, thanks.
6. Scrubs Yeah, I love JD. He's such a spaz. There's no real pairing for this one, in my mind.
7. Star Trek: TNG
8. Red Dwarf
I can't decide whether to be appalled or pleased that those are the only shows I can actually think of that I watched consistently enough to do this for. Anything else is one of those "well, I've seen a few episodes..." type situations. And even Scrubs is pushing it.

Date: 2005-04-04 05:57 pm (UTC)2) Pairing - Garek/Basheer (or however you spell his name)
3) Fav. Character - Scully; Paring - ... the only one that was half-way sane on that show, Mulder/Scully
That's all I can say for sure.
