From
briarwood.
List five of your favourite TV shows:
A) Torchwood
B) Buffy The Vampire Slayer
C) Star Trek:DS9
D) Doctor Who (Nu-Who, only)
E) Blackadder
I know, I'm retro...
And then answer the following questions:
1. Who's your favourite character in B (BtVS)?
Buffy! Hands down :) I actually love the majority of the characters. But Buffy herself is pretty damn special.
2. Who's your least favourite character in A (Torchwood)?
Owen. Strangely, he improved once he was a zombie.
3. What's your favourite episode of D (Doctor Who)?
Oh, wow. This one is a real tough one. Hmmmm, If I was forced to chose one ep to watch over and over again it would probably be the double ep of "The Empty Child"/"The Doctor Dances". Brilliant eps... love 'em.
4. What's your favourite season of E (Blackadder)?
Blackadder Goes Forth... if only for the finale *sniff*
5. Who is your favourite ship in C (ST:DS9)?
Kira Nerys/Jadzia Dax. Two sexy alien chicks dude! Also Julian anyone. Seriously, he was my shipping bicycle.
6. Who is your anti-ship in B (BtVS)?
Unpopular Fandom Opinion: Xander/Spike. There isn't a ship that I consider to have less chemistry than them. I skip any story that marks them as a ship. Just, no. It probably has to do with my dislike of Xander and me thinking that as low as Spike can sink, he still has better taste than Harris.
7. How long have you watched A (Torchwood)?
I got really into it in 2007 when it started showing locally on teevee.
8. How did you become interested in C (ST:DS9)?
I've been a Star Trek fan since I was seven and this was on in the afternoons after school and it reminded me of home (subconsciously).
9. Who's your favourite actor/actress in D (Doctor Who)?
Oh dear. Performance wise I think Eccleston stole the show. When it comes to who I liked the most, it would be David Tennant. Of the Companions, Catherine Tate can take me out any time.
10. Which do you prefer: Show A (Torchwood) or B (BtVS) or E (Blackadder)?
Well, I definitely prefer Torchwood and BtVS over Blackadder, but I refuse to chose between my Feminist Big Sister and my Queer BFF.
Eff Off.
11. Which show have you seen more episodes of, A (Torchwood) or C (ST:DS9)?
Well, ST:DS9 has more eps, sooooo
12. If you could be anyone from D (Doctor Who), who would you be?
Martha. She got the best deal in the end and was the most accomplished to begin with.
13. How would you kill off your favourite character in A?
*wibble*
It's pretty much canon.
*wibble*
14. Give a random quote from A (Torchwood)?
"A little bit of techno-babble is good for the soul"
15. Would a C/D (ST:DS9/Doctor Who) crossover work?
Like a house on fire!!!!!
16. Pair 2 characters in A (Torchwood) that would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple.
The thing about Torchwood is that all the pairings there make a strangely okay couple (or even ensemble). It's that kind of show.
But I always liked Ianto/Tosh and Ianto/Jack/Tosh.
17. Has E (Blackadder) inspired you in any way?
It's inspired me not to be ashmed to show how smart I am.
18. Overall, which show has a better cast, B (BtVS) or D (Doctor Who)?
Does.
Not.
Compute.
Question.
Moving on...
20. Which has better theme music, C (ST:DS9) or E (Blackadder)?
Sing it with me folks:
The sound of hoof beats 'cross the glade
Good folk, lock up your son and daughter
Beware the deadly flashing blade
Unless you want to end up shorter
Black Adder, Black Adder, he rides a pitch black steed
Black Adder, Black Adder, he's very bad indeed
Black: his gloves of finest mole
Black: his codpiece made of metal
His horse is blacker than a hole
His pot is blacker than his kettle
Black Adder, Black Adder, with many an cunning plan
Black Adder, Black Adder, you horrid little man.

Actually, she had me at 'As far as I'm concerned, you've got to earn that title'. And marvelling at the moon, and generally being confident and effective even in the situation she knows nothing about.
The writers did some poor job with her development in the middle of the season, and they even admit that her crush on the Doctor was some very bad idea, but in the end, she did save the world basically all by herself, and she's brilliant.

I second both of these opinions and now have to hide.
