I saw this meme over at My Friend Amy’s Blog and Pop Culture Junkie, and since I absolutely love TV, I borrowed it for my own blog!
1. Name a TV show series in which you have seen every episode at least twice: The West Wing, Stargate SG-1
2. Name a show you can’t miss: LOST, Battlestar Galactica
3. Name an actor that would make you more inclined to watch a show: Any actor from a show I previously loved (as long as I liked the character they played!)
4. Name an actor who would make you less likely to watch a show: Sarah Jessica Parker and Debra Messing (sorry, can’t stand either of them).
5. Name a show you can, and do, quote from: The West Wing and Friends (“You know, it’s like a cow’s opinion. It’s moo.”)
6. Name a show you like that no one else enjoys: Well, I’m sure other people love(d) these shows, but Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis! I love my sci-fi TV!
7. Name a TV show which you’ve been known to sing the theme song: The only song I can think of is Gilmore Girls, and I know that song really well!
8. Name a show you would recommend everyone to watch: Battlestar Galactica. It’s one of those that people are turned off by because of the sci-fi name, but it’s so much more than aliens and shooting!
9. Name a TV series you own: The West Wing, Friends, The 4400, Arrested Development, Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, The Tudors, LOST, Firefly, From the Earth to the Moon (miniseries)
10. Name an actor who launched his/her entertainment career in another medium, but has surprised you with his/her acting choices in television: Patrick Stewart. He’s such a Shakespearean actor, I’m surprised he did Star Trek!
11. What is your favourite episode of your favourite series? Ok, I don’t really have a favorite series! I love too many!
12. Name a show you keep meaning to watch, but you just haven’t gotten around to yet: Weeds, Ugly Betty, Veronica Mars

14. Name a show that’s made you cry multiple times: Stargate SG-1 – why oh why do they keep killing off Daniel Jackson??
15. What do you eat when you watch TV? Dinner.

This has been a fun one to read. Especially because I don’t watch that much commercial TV. We generally watch HBO, Showtime, or DVDs. But my guilty pleasure is Desperate Housewives!
But thanks to you and Alea, we’re just getting into Lost.
Here here on Arrested Development! That show was brilliant! And I’ve nothing but good things about Battlestar Galactica but I think it is hampered by bad feelings about the original movie (or was it a series)?
Cool meme!
Oh my gosh, get thee to Veronica Mars now!!
You will love it. (I think)
I don’t watch enough TV to do this meme. Of all the shows you mentioned, the only one I’ve seen is Weeds.
I totally agree with you about Arrested Development!
Joining the chorus on Arrested Development… the best! One question for you – when do you read??? Wow. You are very efficient.
I did this meme too – check it out!
I think I do need to try some of these Sci-Fi shows we have tweeted about. Now sure which to start with! Probably Lost?
