TV meme, ganked from Indy! List 6 of your favorite television shows, then answer the questions.

1. Firefly
2. Buffy
3. Veronica Mars
4. House
5. The Daily Show
6. Lost

I wish I could have included Wonderfalls, but I wanted to limit myself to only one show that lasted half a season. Frankly, I like Wonderfalls a heck of a lot more than I like Lost, but for some reason it felt forgiveable for my to exclude it, and it felt wrong for me to exclude Lost. Go figure. Um... go rent Wonderfalls.

1. Who is your favorite character from #2? (Buffy)
Spike, duh. :D

2. Who is your least favorite character from #4? (House)
House has such a small core cast that it's hard to find someone to dislike. Cameron can be annoying at times, but maybe that's a result of the viewers being immersed in the Gregory House Morality Zone too long. I didn't care for Stacy much, I guess.

3. What would a crossover between #1 and #5 include? (Firefly + The Daily Show)
Oh, wow. Now I'm imagining a 500-year-old robot/hologram Jon Stewart covering the story of Miranda and The Signal. The title of this segment will be "Reaver Madness." And then when the Alliance realizes holo!Stephen Colbert is actually making fun of them as opposed to supporting their regime, he is promptly disposed of by the Hands of Blue. YoSaffBridge pulls a scam on Samantha Bee and Jason Jones' great-great-great x15 grandson. John Hodgman's cyborg clone attacks Badger, thinking him a space hobo.

4. Who is your favorite ship from #6? (Lost)
Jin/Sun. There are no words. In addition, I'm fed up with Charlie/Claire, which had so much cuteness potential, only for Charlie to turn into a gutless weasel, so now I ship Hurley/Blonde Chick (Lyddie? Oh, Libby!) and Sayid/Me.

5. If you were to set one person from #3 and one person from #6 on a blind date, who would they be? (Veronica Mars and Lost)
Kate and Clarence Weidman. I think the outcome would prove most satisfactory.

6. If you could meet one person from #4 and spend the day with them, who would it be, and what would you do? (House)
I'm coming up blank. House himself would just make fun of me, and I don't feel I have enough in common with Cuddy or Wilson or the Ducklings that would lead to us hit off as buddies. Plus, it would mean I'd be hanging around the hospital, and hospitals have blood in them, on the outside of people's bodies. I strongly believe that blood should not be on the outside of people's bodies.

7. If you could change one thing about #2's plotline, what would you change? (Buffy)
I would get rid of that idiotic OMG MAGIC IS TEH CRACK!!! plotline in Season 6, and have the characters realize that it's Willow's personality that's causing the problem. Intensive therapy would be involved. Then I would make Season 7's villain not suck.

8. Explain a relationship between two people (not necessarily romantic) from show #5, and why you like the relationship between them. (The Daily Show)
This conveys all I want to say. :D

9. If the lead title characters (first name in the credits) from #1 and #3 were both drowning, and you could only save one, who would it be? (Firefly + Veronica Mars)
Gah! Veronica would be more likely to sceme some brilliant way of getting out alive and Mal is the kind of hero that could drown, mostly because I'm not sure he knows what water is. On one hand, Mal would be heavy and I would be more likely to drown with him, but on the other hand, there would be gratitude. *grins*

10. If you could change the title characters' order in the credits for #4, what order would you choose? (House)
Fine by me as-is.

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? (Lost)
Someone to arrive on the island in a puff of Mary Sue glitter, then smack all the characters upside the head for being stupid. Then she would shake Ana-Lucia's hand for snuffing Shannon.

12. What happens in your favorite episode of show #2? (Buffy)
EVERYONE BURSTS INTO SONG. No, seriously.

13. If you could kill off one of the characters of #1, who would it be and how would you do it? (Firefly)
Dude, we've lost enough characters, thankyouverymuch. Instead, I'd bring back Wash as a zombie. Space zombies would be awesome.

14. If you got the chance to visit the set for either show #3 or show #5, which would you choose? (Veronica Mars + The Daily Show)
I've already visited the set of The Daily Show, so I'd definitely visit the set of Veronica Mars.

15. If you could date anyone from any of these shows, which show and which person?
The problem is that most of my favourite male characters aren't really what I'd consider dateable, most often because they're too old for me. Contenders: Wallace (VM), Dimitri (The Daily Show), Beav/Cassidy (VM), and Oz (Buffy).
