Fun with Fandoms!

[kriadydragon]

Snurched from sholio because it looks like fun :D

Name a fandom you know (that you think I know too!) and I'll tell you:

1. The first character I first fell in love with
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer
6. The character I would totally hug (because smooching is a little too personal).
7. The character I’d want to be like
8. The character I’d slap
9. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise

To help you out, the things I've written stuff for over the years: SGA, White Collar, CSI: NY, Magnificent 7, Andromeda, Numbers, A Team, Haven, Suits, Dr. Who. This can also include things I haven't written for but do watch, such as The Walking Dead, Criminal Minds and Psych.

I'm torn between Numbers and Dr. Who, so I'll let you pick.

How about both?

I'll start with Dr. Who.

1. The first character I first fell in love with - The Tenth Doctor. Even before I watched the show I was hearing about David Tennant as the Doctor. I thought David looked hot so I thought let's give Dr. Who a try, so I got the first season on DVD, and after a couple of episodes I was hooked. I loved his manic goofiness coupled with his occasional fierceness, and loved the overall whimsy of the show.

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now - Donna. I didn't like her in Runaway Bride at first but was psyched when she returned in season four

3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t - Amy Pond. I like her but I feel like the new Dr. Who became too Amy focused and less Doctor focused. There was just too much rescuing Amy and less Amy being capable and helping out.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates - probably Martha. Her infatuation with the Doctor was a tad annoying but I loved how capable she was.

5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer - Amy Pond, again for the same reasons.

6. The character I would totally hug (because smooching is a little too personal) - It's a tie between the Doctor and Wilf.

7. The character I’d want to be like - Donna

8. The character I’d slap - Donna's mom

9. A pairing that I love - Amy/Rory

10. A pairing that I despise - None.

I like Amy, but I do agree that the new seasons have been too Amy focused. I always liked Donna's spunk from the very beginning, though I get why she wouldn't have been immediately appealing. Still, for me, after Rose and then again after Martha, it was fun to have a companion that wasn't quite so enchanted with the Doctor. It was good for him, I think.

Numbers

1. The first character I first fell in love with - Charlie. I can kind of relate to him. I'm not into math even remotely but I know what it's like to be obsessed with something (writing for me). And I loved his quirkiness.

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now - I would have to say Don, though he's fluctuated on me. I still like him but I hated how, for a time, his story arc was whoever he happened to be sleeping with and he was doing that a lot. It eventually became one of the reasons I stopped watching.

3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t - Colby. It seemed like once Colby came onto the scene Don was relegated to desk duty and wasn't doing as much.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates - I'm not sure who everyoe hates. Amita, I guess? I think there was some negativity toward Amita, which I don't get as she was awesome.

5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer - Don. But, like I said, I fluctuated with him.

6. The character I would totally hug (because smooching is a little too personal) - Charlie.

7. The character I’d want to be like - Amita

8. The character I’d slap - Don when his story arc became his love life.

9. A pairing that I love - Charlie/Amita

10. A pairing that I despise - Charlie and that blond friend of his who I guess he slept with, I can't remember her name. I hated that episode like crazy and tossed it right out of my head canon.

Very cool of you to do both! Thanks! :D

I loved the Charlie/Amita pairing, but I have to admit my fav pairing was Larry/Megan.
