Name your top six TV shows right now, before reading the questions.

1. Highlander
2. Torchwood
3. Doctor Who
4. Heroes
5. Top Gear
6. The League of Gentlemen



1. Who is your favorite character from #2(Torchwood)? Captain Jack Harkness
2. Who is your least favorite character from #4(Heroes)? I really don't have one.
3. What would a crossover between #1(Highlander) and #5(Top Gear) include? A massive Quickening involving a Porsche 911, The Stig, and a caravan.
4. Who is your favorite ship from #6(League of Gentlemen)? Edward/Tubbs
5. If you were to set one person from #3(Doctor Who) and one person from #6(League of Gentlemen) on a blind date, who would they be? Captain Jack Harkness and Ross. Ross needs a good time and Jack would be happy to show him.
6. If you could meet one person from #4(Heroes) and spend the day with them, who would it be, and what would you do? Hiro and I'd jump about time with him.
7. If you could change one thing about #2(Torchwood)'s plot line, what would you change? I would make it more consistent and have a recurring bad guy (which I'm hoping for in S2...Bilis!).
8. Explain a relationship between two people (not necessarily romantic) from show #5, and why you like the relationship between them. I have to expand that to three, because I just can't leave one of them out. Clarkson, Hammond, and May are tremendous friends...they tease each other rotten, cheat like crazy, yet (as Hammond's crash proved) they are great, great friends. Plus, the slash potential is phenomenal.
9. If the lead title characters from #1(Highlander) and #3(Doctor Who) were both drowning, and you could only save one, who would it be? I would save the Doctor. While he can regenerate, the Doctor would actually die...whereas as Duncan would just revive. Besides, I'd save the Doctor any day over the boyscout.
10. If you could change the title characters' order in the credits for #4(Heroes), what order would you choose? Working from IMDB billing...Mohinder, Sylar, Hiro, Peter, Nathan, Claire, HRG.
11. If you were able to add a new character, any kind of character you wanted, to the storyline for #6(League of Gentlemen), what would the character be like, and what would their role be? I do think the Gents covered every likely character possible.
12. What happens in your favorite episode of show #2(Torchwood)? There's two...Captain Jack Harkness and End of Days. 'Nuff said.
13. If you could kill off one of the characters in #1(Highlander), who would it be and how would you do it? Duncan MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod...for killing Kronos and for being a general do-gooding pain in the arse.
14. If you got the chance to visit the set for either show #3(Doctor Who) or show #5(Top Gear), which would you choose? Top Gear...it would be easier as they have a studio audience, and it would be fun, especially if Clarkson goes off on one of his rants.
15. If you could date anyone from any of these shows, which show and which person? Well, all of Top Gear are married. The Gents are just weird. The Doctor so I can go places with him in the TARDIS.

Besides, I'd save the Doctor any day over the boyscout.

Heh, while I like the boyscout to the extent a BABE is capable of, there's NO WAY I'd let the Doctor die. Of course if it was one of his incarnations I don't like so much I'd have to remind myself he's got lots of ones I do like.

There's two...Captain Jack Harkness and End of Days. 'Nuff said.

I like them both, I just give the edge to End of Days. ;)

The Doctor so I can go places with him in the TARDIS

But which Doctor? :D

Well, I absolutely adore Bilis (and I write him in a couple of prompt comms) so it's really tough to pick between the two eps. CJH I do like for the Jack/Jack and EoD loses it a bit with the monster...I felt they could have done better after all that build-up...so they balance out. :D

But which Doctor? :D

Tough choice. Three, Four, Five, Seven, Nine or Ten. Any of those! (And I do like the others, just these are my faves.)

CJH I do like for the Jack/Jack and EoD loses it a bit with the monster...

I think for me, while I like the glimpses of Jack's past we get in CJH and Jack/Jack, EoD wins because I feel like there's more going on in it. Course I'm not a big fan of Bilis so I wasn't thrilled with his being in both episodes. Mostly I love hearing Jack's, "Thank you." ;)

Three, Four, Five, Seven, Nine or Ten. Any of those!

Heh, Four, Five and Nine are on my Top 5 Doctors list in my In Progress Doctor Who Quick Guide (http://beccadg.livejournal.com/113053.html). I'm not as fond of Ten, Three and Seven.

Ahhh, you know me and enigmatic bad guys...I adored Bilis from the moment he appeared. Such a conniving bastard. It's just that I thought that Abbadon would be much more terrible...instead of looking like a cross between Godzilla and King Kong. But I do like EoD for giving me a plot bunny which includes my OC Roman centurion. :D

Three will always be dear to me as that was when I first started watching DW. I really like all the rest, just not as much. Except for Eight...but I totally blame Fox for that and not Paul McGann, who I like in other things.

Ahhh, you know me and enigmatic bad guys...

Heh, I know, I know. I shouldn't be at all surprised by you liking Bilis or Sylar. Since I'm not fond of them it'll be interesting to see how well Zachary Quintos as Spock works for me in the next Star Trek film.

It's just that I thought that Abbadon would be much more terrible...instead of looking like a cross between Godzilla and King Kong.

On the one hand I wasn't surprised by the design of Abbadon given Bilis mention of "The Beast" from second season New Who. On the other hand I did think given the general tone of Torchwood he should have some Lovecraftian tentacles -- more Cthulhu, less classic demonic horns and cloven hooves.

Three will always be dear to me as that was when I first started watching DW.

*Nods.* I'm sure Four is my favorite Doctor because he was my first. I have a much harder time explaining why I love Six. I had to tell Kadira I am a "Pervy Sixth Fancier." I told my mom Captain Jack Harkness won't surpass K-9 without entertaining me for years, and my being able to hold a toy version of him in my arms. I've got a life size stuffed K-9.

Except for Eight...but I totally blame Fox for that and not Paul McGann, who I like in other things.

I understand. There are a lot of things I don't like about the Fox movie, which I still own a copy of, but not Eight by himself. Hell, I've mentioned when people have got me bitching about the parts of New Who I don't like that I didn't like Eight kissing Grace, but it pales next to all the Doctor/Rose Russell T. Davies has tried to cram down my throat.

Duncan MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod...for killing Kronos and for being a general do-gooding pain in the arse.

Amen. I picked Amanda though, just because she irks the hell out of me. Kronos was not pleased with my choice. ;)

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2007-10-24 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Hehehe, I should think he wasn't. :D My own (very quiet, but still present) Kronos had no doubt who I should pick and demanded it. And I kind of used to be indifferent about Amanda until I met Elizabeth Gracen at a con, and she was really nice.

Mine was busy finalizing his Samhain plans, or he would have done the same. ;)

Again, just more proof that I need to get to a con.

Mine hasn't been doing anything except let his feelings be known every now and then. *g*

Sadly, they are few and far between anymore.
