I'm still gutted by the discovery that Rollo Weeks played Mini-Gerard in Attila. Sometimes the IMDB is a curse, I tell you.

And now, it's time for fun with memes:

List six of your favourite shows

1. Firefly
2. BSG (new)
3. Kim Possible
4. Weekenders
5. Deadwood
6. BSG (original)



1. Who is your favorite character from ..2?
Commander Adama, no question. He is the very definition of "awesome".

2. Who is your least favorite character from ..4?
Tish.


3. What would a crossover between ..1 and ..5 include?
Bullock and Mal in a self-justification pissing match. Dan Dority vs Jayne in a knock-down, drag-out fight. Inara getting a verbal smackdown from Joanie Stubbs. Simon being in camp for about two seconds before either Al or Cy starts pimping his ass to the hooples (*waves Steve/Simon 4Eva flag*) River and Calamity Jane in a drinking contest. William and Wash LIVE! Zoe opens a can of whupass on Cy Tolliver. The Operative versus Francis Wolcott. Andy Crame and Book trade stabbin' tips. Reavers versus road agents. Severed Rotting Indian Head and Mister Universe join forces to defeat the stinky Aliiance and that idiot Jarry.

4. Who is your favorite ship from ..6?
Apollo/Starbuck. Like there are even any other 'ships.


5. If you were to set one person from ..3 and one person from ..6 on a blind date, who would they be?
Baltar and DNAmy, after she gets gorilla-fied. Hilarious and WRONGSICK all at the same time. Plus it leaves Monkey Fist and Ron free to pursue their love...


6. If you could meet one person from ..4 and spend the day with them, who would it be, and what would you do?
Tino, and probably eat pizza, play videogames, and hug him a lot for being too damn cute and snarky and ickle.

7. If you could change one thing about ..2's plotline, what would you change?
Two words: Fat. Lee.

8. Explain a relationship between two people (not neccessarily romantic) from show ..5, and why you like the relationship between them?
Al and Trixie. Because it's fucked up and complex and difficult in the way that only relationships on Deadwood (and possibly the new BSG) can be; because they're both amazing characters with so many different facets to their personalities, and because they have this undeniable connection that is so much deeper than a whore and her pimp.

9. If the lead title characters from ..1 and ..3 were both drowning, and you could only save one, who would it be?
*snort* Kim. As if I would save Mal. His giant nostrils would act as natural airbags and keep him afloat anyway.


10. If you could change the title characters' order in the credits for ..4, what order would you choose?
I can't even remember what order they go in, but I'd go with Tino-Carver-Lor-Tish.


11. If you were able to add a new character, any kind of character you wanted, to the storyline for ..6, what would the character be like and what would their role be?
A County and Western-singing Cylon called Joe. He'd... sing County and Western. And wear a cool cowboy hat.


12. What happens in your favorite episode of show ..2?
Chief makes a stealth craft and Tigh gets on his case but then is all, *gives him spare crappy engine parts* and all the crew come together and help and then they call it the Laura and it makes me cry and Lee and Kara totally do a mating dance with their ships.

13. If you could kill off one of the characters of ..1, who would it be and how would you do it?
Inara, because she is fucking pointless and annoying.

14. If you got the chance to visit the set for either show ..3 or show ..5, which would you choose?
Deadwood, on account of Kim Possible being a cartoon. Plus I could get Ian McShane's autograph and stalk W. Earl Brown.


15. So, I saved the best question for last. If you could date anyone from any of these shows, who would it be?
For Firefly, it would be Jayne. For the new BSG, it would be... no-one, because everyone on there is fucked up. For Kim Possible, it would be Ron, or possibly Monkey Fist (what?! He's attractive!) For the Weekenders, it would be Tino or Tino's mum. For Deadwood, it would be Dan Dority. For the original BSG, it would be... no-one, since Starbuck is the only really shaggable character, and women who fuck up the Apollo/Starbuck thing tend to get shot by Joe the Courty-and-Western-Singing Cylon.

Oh, my God. Oh, my GOD. What have you done to me!? *shakes* I CANNOT WRITE A MONKEY FIST X RON STOPPABLE LEMON, I HAVE TO HAVE SOME SENSE OF STANDARDS LEFT! Oh, my God. *whimpers, as she is so totally going to work on this as soon as possible* Oh, my God . . . *wanders off in a daze*

[froodle]

Dude, you know it totally makes sense. I am all about the Mystical Monkey Lovin'.

[gothicwhite.livejournal.com]

Nooooo! I can't! I cannot write Kim Possible smut, my beta will kick my ass. She's got this thing about me systematically destroying her childhood, ever since I told her about my sole 'The Secret Garden' smutty slash fic I'd dug out of Aspen's site so long ago. I couldn't help it, and now everytime I read it I think about Dickon and Colin sneaking off and doing all sorts of naughty things behind Miss Mary's back . . .

[froodle]

Tch, Secret Garden porn, tht's just dumb. Everyone knows poor Colin's crush was totally unrequited. I bet Dickon and Mary sat around drinking tea and laughing about how lame he was. Life is hard for melodramatic ukeish blondes with crushes on robust outdoorsy types.

[gothicwhite.livejournal.com]

*gasps* How dare you, sir! *throws knife* It so was not! Dickon and Colin were in loooove, and Mary wound up abandoned quite often and chatting with the gardener and Dickon's sister. (I cannot, for the life of me, remember their names. Whenever I try to think of something, my mind automatically latches onto it, throws it into a corner of my head, and promptly buries it under a pile of crap memories.)

Also, I don't think Colin was a blonde . . . that was Creevey, in HP.

[froodle]

Oh please, even if they actually did get it on, Dickon would totally be using poor ickle Colin.

Well, he was whiny and miserable and effeminate, and in my mind, whiny, miserable, effeminate boys are always blonde.

[gothicwhite.livejournal.com]

Hello? Do you even remember Dickon's character? He was all squeaky clean (except for how he was always dirty and poor) and everything. And half the fun of whiny, miserable, effeminate (blonde) boys are getting them to shut up and bend over for the macho, sick-of-master's-bitching stableboys!

(btw, do you know someone in real life like that? Is that why they're always blonde?)

Also, reading back over your Angel quotes--how could you possibly have forgotten:

Angel: I have no problems spanking men.

[froodle]

He was totally Mary's bit o' rough! But I shall go with you on appropriate methods for shutting up whiny, effeminate blondes.

(And yes; when I was in high scool, there was a guy in my class who was the epitome of the blonde, ukeish boywhore. Even at thirteen, it was blatently obvious)

Angel's such a liar; he has no problems spanking Spike, but I bet if he tried that shit on Wes or Gunn, they'd pull a knife on him.

[gothicwhite.livejournal.com]

And Spike would bend over for it in a heartbeat. (or would, if his heart actually did so)

And only Gunn gets to spank Wesley. So there. Or Giles, have you ever read Gila's stuff? There is this amazingly kinky chapter to a Giles x Wesley fic in which Wesley gets fucked with a cold banana . . . okay, I am so off to re-read that . . .

[froodle]

Spike is all about the spankin'.

Nooo, Giles is too cool to be with Wesley! Clearly he is destined to be with Ethan, or possibly Cute!Xander (ie, Xander in the first three seasons of Buffy).

[gothicwhite.livejournal.com]

*is guilty* And, yeah, I'm lurking your journal because I think you're hilarious and I've never met someone who actually still watches Gargoyles, not to mention Invader ZIM. Sorry. *toes foot*

[froodle]

OMGSTALKER! Well, your stalking days are over, missy. Now I have friended you and the jig is up! Or gig, or whatever. I can never remember the exact phrase.

[gothicwhite.livejournal.com]

Heh. I think it's jig. And thanks. :) Now I don't feel so stalkerish in running back all of your 360 some-odd entries. I couldn't help it, you and your comment wars are so Wasabi and Yellowtail in every Sinfest strip ever. I love snarky people. *headdesk* And am now totally committed to finding out who Richard E. Grant is, why you seem to call God Liam Neeson (or think that Liam Neeson is God?), and track down every Sherlock Holmes movie, mini-series, and book ever. Who knows, you might get some smut out of it. Hell, who am I kidding? You so will. ^_^* Everything I write inevitably turns into pr0n.

[froodle]

I always get confused about that. And that other saying, where you don't like the cut of somebody's jib, I get that one muddled up too. Either that or I stand there like Johnny Lee Miller in Plunkett and Macleane going "Jib?" with a WTF expression on my face.

Richard E. Grant is an awesome, awesome British actor who regularly crops up in various period dramas and occaisonally in very bizarre and unexpected roles, such as the Spice Girl's manager in Spiceworld (shut up, it was awesome and I was twelve!), Sherlock Holmes in yet another example of my borther and I managing to cross-pollinate the others fandoms, and the Church of Liamneesonism... well, that's a long story.

[gothicwhite.livejournal.com]

. . .

I have no idea what that one is. What the hell's a jib? Also, what's Plunkett and Macleane? Movie? Rentable, do you think? Also, does Jonny have his real accent? Because ever since I saw him in Dracula 2000 (I know, shame is me, it sucked monkey's ass) Hackers kind of really makes me cringe. He has a beautiful voice.

Huh. *is off to IMDb* *snickers* Spiceworld? *blinks, and kicks CD case under bed* What kind of loser listens to The Spice Girls? *nervous laughter*

The Church of Liamneesonism?

. . . I have time . . .

[froodle]

I don't know what exactly it is, but a jib is something to do with old-fashioned sailing boats. A sail, maybe? I should know this, given the amount of Patrick O'Brian I read, but I usually just skip all the boring technical ship stuff and focus on Jack being a great big manwhore.

Plunkett and Macleane is a movie about these two ne'er-do-wells, played by JLM and Robert Carlyle, who turn to highway robbery as a means of support and attain modest celebrity among ladies of fashion and tangle with evil Thief Taker Ken Stott and have adventures and OMG Alan Cumming is in it as the Earl of Rochester and it's just way, way too awesome. Forget renting it; it needs to be a permanent addition to anyone's DVD collection. And JLM doesn't have his actual accent, on account of it being a period drama and him playing a down-on-his-luck aristocrat, but it is English, and very sexy too.

As for the Church of Liamneeson, well...

P.S. - I keep forgetting to ask you this, but have you ever watched Family Guy or Arrested Development?

[froodle]

Family Guy, yes, Arrested Development, no.

[gothicwhite.livejournal.com]

Omg, you haven't? I am so going to see about uploading the pilot for you. It's hilarious, and freakish, and everyone is just so weird. What did you think of Family Guy?

[froodle]

I like Family Guy, but I prefer Futurama. And no matter how lame it may have gotten in recent years, I shall always be a Simpsons fangirl at heart. Homer is my idol.

[gothicwhite.livejournal.com]

You know, I have never actually watched an episode of The Simpsons. Not once, not ever. I really, really need to, so I can get all those nifty Jack moments in SG-1 when he's referencing it.

[froodle]

Oh. My. God. Seriously? Never? But... but how? It's the Simpsons. People who've never seen a TV have watched the Simpsons! I don't know quite how that works, but it's true.
