Meme fun! (yes I AM spamming, heeee!)
Aug. 12th, 2008 03:00 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
All righty then. I decided I feel insecure about the PWP I wrote in the middle of the night so while I'm waiting for that feeling to pass (hopefully), I stole a meme from
gottalovev. What a fun time-waster!
I think the instructions go like this. List your 6 favorite fandoms. [Don't look at the questions before choosing the fandoms!]
1. Lost
2. Friday Night Lights
3. Grey's Anatomy
4. House
5. Brothers and Sisters
6. American Idol
01. Who is your favourite character from #6?
I cheated a little with #6 -- it's not a show with characters, exactly, 'cause they're Real People. But y'all know I lurrrrrrrrve my Cookie. And...you shouldn't have gotten me started on AI and David Cook, because I WILL babble. I loved him, LOVED him, until they did Andrew Lloyd Webber night, and then I freaked, because...surely he wasn't REALLY gonna attempt a song from Phantom of the Opera? A rocker like him can't pull it off, and ruining a Phantom song is a sacriledge, and OMG, Cookie, don't make me hate you! So when his performance started I covered my eyes with one hand and one ear with the other hand and listened with the ear I had left...and he was GOOD! Only I sat there cringing because I knew there was this part coming up that he surely couldn't pull off...and he got there, "Let your soul take you where you long to BEEEEEE!", and by gosh, he HIT that note dead-on! But there was one more note coming up, and I uncovered my eyes and ear and waited, and he got to that last, "of the NIGHT!", and he hit it again, and, well, the rest is fangirl history. Also he sang a U2 song and he was almost as Godlike as Bono, so. 'Nuff said.
Wait, one more thing. LISTEN to the man!
02. Who is your least favourite character from #4?
House? Well, I couldn't live w/o House's snark, and Wilson totally pwns me, so they can stay. Thirteen fascinates me beyond all explanation. I guess my LEAST favorite character is Cuddy. She's like nails on a chalkboard to me. And I hate Cameron's hair, sorry!
03. What would a crossover between #1 and #5 include?
LOST and BROTHERS AND SISTERS? There's just...no comparison...they exist in different universes (literally, I think!). Um. Okay, well, it'd be an AU where Robert McAllister wins the race for President, but is shot in an assassination attempt. They take him to Dr. Jack ('cause it happened in L.A., y'know) and Jack fixes him up all good as new. And now I'm trying very very hard to resist slashing Rob Lowe with Dr. Jack. Thanks, silly meme, for giving me ideas. *takes a quick smut break*
04. Who is your favourite ship from #1?
*snort* Duh! And DUH some more! I'd never have found my way here if it weren't for my ultimate OTP, Sawyer/Jack. I am loyal to them til death do us part...wait, that's not right 'cause there's an afterlife on Lost, right? So I'm loyal to them 'til death and beyond. *nods and clings tight to her boys*
05. If you were to set one person from #3 and one person from #6 on a blind date, who would they be?
Grey's and American Idol? You gotta be kidding! Okay, I can do this...*puts thinking cap on*.... Okay, got it. McDreamy and Brooke. He'd charm her and make her give that cute little smile even when she's crying, and she'd sing to him and lure him back to her side when he started to stray. Hey, I LIKE them in a ship! :)
06. If you could meet one person from #4 and spend the day with them, who would it be, and what would you do?
I would definitely meet Wilson. I'd give him tons and tons of advice on how to handle House, tho he does a pretty fine job of it all on his own. Maybe I'd just reassure him of that, and tell him to get a clue, brother, you two are SO in love! But can House heal Wilson's broken heart after Amber's death (Amber, aka Cutthroat Bitch, who I ADORDED and cry for to this very day). But Wilson and House NEED each other, it's so obvious. So yeah, Wilson is the more reasonable one of the two, so he needs to be told.
07. If you could change one thing about #2's plotline, what would you change?
Okay, there's the Easy Button. On Friday Night Lights, I'd change the insane plotline where my boy Riggins and that stupid slut Lyla are heading for a "serious relationship." PUH-LEEEEZE!!!!! Gag me with a spoon, why don't you?
08. Explain a relationship between two people (not necessarily romantic) from fandom #5, and why you like the relationship between them.
Oh, cue the violins. My favorite, favorite, favorite ship on Brothers and Sisters (tho I like Kitty and Robert, too), is Kevin/Scotty.
cynthia_arrow, are you reading this? Come talk to me about Kevin/Scotty! See, Brothers and Sisters gave me a real, honest-to-God, canon slash ship and I ♥ them for it. Kevin and Scotty have been on-and-off for a while, and I thought Kevin was gonna end up with Robert's hothotHOT minister brother but NO, he and Scotty worked it out and in the end, they got MARRIED! By Kitty -- she officiated. And I was officially a puddle of goo.
09.If the lead characters from #1 and #3 were both drowning, and you could only save one, who would it be?
Okay, this is not so far fetched, considering that the characters on #1 Are On An Island. So, are they ALL drowning, or just one lead from each show? I'll pretend it's the second one, and say it's House and, oh, how 'bout Ben, just to make things interesting. I'm curious to know, before I say what I'd do, who would YOU pick to drown?
10. 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 new "character" on AI??? That's a silly question. Okay, well, a silly question deserves a silly answer, so I'd add the Smoke Monster and it'd eat up Ryan Seacrest.
11. What happens in your favourite episode of show #2?
Awwwww, "Wind Sprints." The boys were bad, Coach Taylor was mad, and he made them run in the rain. Now, Tim Riggins (Taylor Kitsch) is the hottest thing on the planet when he's wet. (
eponine119, I haven't forgotten about Fangirl Poker! I've just made a rule that I have to post at least one luau fic before I play anymore.) So Riggins gets all wet and tired and sick and Coach Taylor is STILL mad and he won't let him ride home on the bus. He has to walk home, and he's all hot and wet and...yeah.
12. If you could kill off one of the characters of #1, who would it be and how would you do it?
Oh good Lord, I don't need to kill off ANYBODY on LOST, the writers are madly and merrily doing it for me. Seriously, is that a trick question?
13. If you got the chance to visit the set for either show #3 or show #5, which would you choose?
Aww (why does Brothers and Sisters always make me go "awwww"?). I'd visit Brothers and Sisters, and I'd totally make out with Rob Lowe and then I'd write myself into the script and I'd go to Nora's house and tell her that I'm her dead husband's long-lost love child, and Nora would welcome me with open arms. And she'd cook lots of good food and stuff. And then when I married one of my brothers (who aren't really my brothers 'cause it turns out that my mother, the slut, got pregnant by the actress' (Patricia Wettig) RL husband, Ken Olin) -- I'd probably marry Justin 'cause he's hot -- Nora would throw me a huge wedding in her awesome house and Kevin could be my Matron of Honor.
14. So, I saved the best question for last. If you could date anyone from any of these fandoms, which fandom and which person?
I'm gonna surprise you. You thought I'd say Sawyer, didn't you? And I could totally handle him (yes I COULD, too, neener!). But I'd date Dr. Jack, for the very opposite reason than that ^^ -- Jack is a stubborn mule and I'd never know how to deal with him and we'd fight and make up and fight and make up and fight and make up....
And then I'd totally watch him make out with Sawyer.

Date: 2008-08-12 08:38 pm (UTC)When Coach made him walk home may have been a gift to us all. Tim Riggins all wet..walking home in the rain, with that muscle shirt on...with those shoulders going and that angry hair..*sigh*
no subject
Date: 2008-08-12 10:32 pm (UTC)And these are the same geniuses who brought us Coach and the bus and the rain and wet!Riggins! I think, there's some sort of conspiracy to remove writers' brains after S1 if their show turns out to be good. Paranoid? Maybe...but there sure seems to be a lot of evidence for it!
So, I'm gonna be pre-emptively huffy about this new development all the way til, like, January when S3 airs, how 'bout you? Wanna join me in my righteous anger?

Date: 2008-08-12 11:31 pm (UTC)You all really didn't read my post from today about the spoilers. *smile*
I swear I don't know what is so freakin' wonderful about Lyla, sure she's pretty but in Texas..pretty girls are a dime a dozen, let's see..she cheated on her newly injured and disabled boyfriend with his best friend, talks to said best friend like he's trash and TALKS LIKES SHE'S A SERIAL KILLER..with the zombie sort of flat affect she has, IT DRIVES ME FREAKIN' CRAZY..my personal favorite was how much she fought to be with Jason then he proposes and is like, "wait, we may be making a mistake," WTF??????
Riggins is the typical bad boy with a heart that gets talked to like he's nothing but would do anything for anyone at anytime..so you know he's my crack, seriously, it's a drug, I can't help myself.
Another thing I couldn't stand was Julie, seriously, hey I was a teenager too, but she was NASTY to Matt, flirting with someone while him and his friends are right there??? and then she's...she's just nasty.
The only thing I like is the casting of Matt's relative (not to give any spoilers to those who may not know), but seriously, even his storyline can make me nutsy, Carlotta?? And then what may or may not happen between him and Julie, I have to give it up for Zach, he said that if that was him, no way would he get back with Julie, she was mean to him.
p.s., did you see the Wolverine trailer..oh damn..seriously can't wait for this, honestly, the crowd went NUTS when he came on screen.
I'll definitely join you...especially with the way they are doing it this season.
no subject
Date: 2008-08-13 05:36 pm (UTC)And yeah, I've been bad about keeping up with my flist, I'm sorry! :(
There's *nothing* wonderful about Lyla, but I'm thinking -- Tim has always idolized her, put her on a pedestal, because he idolizes Jason and Lyla is the typical "best friend's girl." Maybe Tim needs to get with her and see what it's like, what SHE'S like, and see her tumble off that pedestal. I don't think he'll like her or want her anymore then. He just has to get the BFG-syndrome out of his system. I hope.
no subject
Date: 2008-08-12 08:50 pm (UTC)for some reason, Grey's and American Idol? cracked me up, because I immediately thought, "Meredith, meet Simon." HA! She'd be a whiny mess and he'd be a sarcastic bitch and I think it could be really amusing in a trainwreck kind of way.
*waits for more fangirl poker*
no subject
Date: 2008-08-12 11:10 pm (UTC)I know I've told you that before but I'll say it every time you use it, just so you know.
She'd be a whiny mess and he'd be a sarcastic bitch and I think it could be really amusing in a trainwreck kind of way.
You have to write that for me now, you know. Yeah, I'm completely serious!
Tomorrow we'll play Fangirl Poker, and I'm gonna go all-in, baby! :D
no subject
Date: 2008-08-12 09:02 pm (UTC)YES! I hate Lyla with the fire of a thousand suns. That voice.
And I love Scotty/Kevin so much -- I can't wait for the season two DVD to come out! I missed a bunch of episodes this season, including the wedding, sniff. I did see the proposal, though, and it made me teary with happiness.
no subject
Date: 2008-08-12 11:14 pm (UTC)I can see that my flist is going to be completely united on the kill-Lyla front next season. And can I tell you that it makes me ridiculously happy that you used the term "with the fire of a thousand suns"? It's one of my favorite phrases. I can see that we're gonna be great friends!
When DOES the Brothers and Sisters DVD come out?
no subject
Date: 2008-08-13 02:37 pm (UTC)I love that phrase, too -- I still remember the first time I heard it, when my friend was talking about Creed. :D

Date: 2008-08-12 11:20 pm (UTC)Oh dear, that hair. What SHALL we do with it? She needs a buzz cut or a wig. :/
no subject
Date: 2008-08-13 12:05 am (UTC)Now on Lost, who I'd pick to drown voluntarily? good question. I think I better not answer, in fact! lol! they don't need any more death though.
I really liked that vid of David Cook, thanks for sharing :)
no subject
Date: 2008-08-13 03:28 am (UTC)Well, just as long as we can work out a compromise where We Will Save Them Both, then I can live with it. But you know I'd never, ever drown Jack, though there are times when I'd like to and times when I threaten it. So House would have to go and that would be a shame. I mean, they're both doctors so humankind needs them, right? So. No Drowning.
However, on Lost, there are plenty of people who'd benefit tv-land by drowning, but like you, I'm not gonna say who. ;) And I think Lost has just got us all weary, WEARY of death. Like, look at your icon, Jack is WEARY. Oh, okay, I'm totally making that up, but really, we should give 'em a break.
I really liked that vid of David Cook, thanks for sharing :)
You're very welcome! Oooooh, David is just so...okay, I'm gonna regress to a 12-year-old and just squeal. He is so CUTE!!!!!
no subject
Date: 2008-08-13 12:08 am (UTC)For #9 you're s'posed to pick the lead, which would leave you with Jack or House. That's a hard choice, since House is a bastard but then he's always saving people who can't be saved. Jack tries to save people, but his track record's not so good. I had to let him drown in my meme - poor Jack! I'm not sure who I'd pick between him & House though.
no subject
Date: 2008-08-13 05:46 pm (UTC)I'm on a tangent in email with Megan about Jack and Fox and his over-inflated opinion of himself as the lead. I mean, Locke and Ben were just as influetial as Jack last season -- maybe moreso. I kinda want to see Jack get de-throned, lose his leader status, and eat a slice of humble pie! (Am I a meanie? Aw, you know I love Jack, right? He just needs a dose of tough love, imho.)
If I HAD to pick, if you MADE me pick, I'd let House drown 'cause I just couldn't let go of my Jack. And that would break my poor grieving Wilson's heart AGAIN. I AM a meanie! *smites self*
