Pick your five favourite TV shows (in no particular order) and answer the following questions. Don't cheat!

1 - Supernatural

2 - Sherlock

3 - Dr Who

4 - Firefly

5 - Alias Smith & Jones

Who’s your favourite character in 2?
Probably John Watson - I like how understated he is, and all that laconic humour.


Who’s your least favourite character in 1?
Least fave at the moment - anything angelic, I suppose. Ever on the show - difficult! The ones I don't like I tend to forget.


What’s your favourite season of 5?
There were only three seasons made and my faves are the two with Pete Duel in.


What’s your favourite ship in 3?
Dr Who and River Song


Who is your anti-ship in 2?
I don't ship any pairing in Sherlock, so I don't anti-ship either


How long have you watched 1?
Since Season 4


How did you become interested in 3?
I've watched it since it started, it's been a part of my life as long as I can remember. I used to watch it at my Gran's because we didn't have a telly until I was 15.


Who’s your favorite actor in 4?
Toughie - but I'd have to go for Nathan Fillion


Which show do you prefer: 1, 2, or 5?
In order I'd go 1, 5 and 2


Which show have you seen more episodes of: 1 or 3?
Since Dr Who's been going since 1963 and a quick google got me this info "As of 25 December 2011, 784 individual episodes, including one television movie of Doctor Who, have been aired, encompassing 224 stories. Additionally, four charity specials and two animated serials have been aired" - and given that I've seen probably at least 90% of these, yup it will have to be Dr Who.


If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be?
I'd love to be Zoe. She's AWESOME


How would you kill off your favorite character in 2?
Kill John? Damn! In old age, from a swift heart attack while laughing at some shared memory of a case they'd solved


Give a random quote from 1.
I hope your pie's freaking worth it


Would a 3/4 crossover work?
Hell yes. And Badger could be in it, meeting up with Canton Delaware.


Pair two characters in 1 that would make an unlikely, but strangely okay couple.
Mmm how about Abaddon and Gabriel?


Has 5 inspired you in any way?
Alias Smith and Jones was probably the first tv series to get me into the whole buddy thing - and I never actually recognised that until I entered fandom with SPN. I always loved the shows with two guys who were brothers or as close as brothers.


Overall, which show has a better cast: 2 or 4?
Wow now that is actually impossible. I'd say both Sherlock and Firefly had just about perfect casting.


Which has better theme music: 3 or 5?
Dr Who is more iconic, but Alias Smith and Jones makes me smile more.

Awww, your death for John made me so happy-sad, and I don't actually have any outside investment in him/the series! Good work, I commend you.

And MAN the Sherlock/Firefly casting question is totally unfair, meme! XD

When I saw the casting options I thought - no way! Seriously if there were ever two shows more perfectly cast throughout, I've never seen them.

Cool meme - and some great answers :). I've only actually watched 2 of your 5 shows (SPN and Firefly), although I really should watch the rest of Sherlock (I've only seen the first 2 episodes), especially as my brother was briefly in The Hounds of Baskerville episode :P.

I've done it too and posted it on my LJ :): http://heavenli24.livejournal.com/14566.html

I was all prepared to hate Sherlock (I grew up with Jeremy Brett's version) but that first episode totally won me over.

I have the first 2 seasons of Sherlock, I just haven't actually managed to watch them all yet (so many other things to watch) :P. I did like the first 2 episodes though :).
