Day 21 is ‘favourite recurring character’. There are two contenders, both from Deep Space Nine. Dukat is a duplicitous, wily schemer, who wants to regain his place of power over the Bajorans. He irrationally believes they owe him, for apparently ‘looking after’ them during the Cardassian Occupation. His duels with Captain Sisko and Major Kira […]
A juicy one this time. Favourite sitcom. There’s an avalanche of choices with this. Red Dwarf, The League of Gentlemen, Friends, Fawlty Towers, but the winner for me is the hilarious Blackadder. The first series was a bit weak and misdirected, but thereafter it was superbly written and brilliantly acted. I love this show – […]
Today is ‘favourite guest appearance’. Every now and then, someone pops up in a show and everyone goes ‘aaaaaaah’. Bruce Willis turned up in Friends for several episodes, returning to his sitcom roots. Will Wheaton’s appearances as himself in The Big Bang Theory are always funny, and Professor Stephen Hawking also has also appeared in […]
Hot on the heels of Day 16 is Day 17, and this challenge is: Favourite TV animal. Can this be animated? If so, this guy wins hands down: If not, then truthfully, I have no idea. I’m actually struggling to think of animals in television that have left an impression on me.
As I missed this yesterday, let’s quickly catch up. Day 16 is ‘Show with the most seasons’. A little tricky. Technically, Doctor Who has had more seasons than any other show I’ve enjoyed, but Stargate SG1 had ten consecutive seasons that were all more or less of equal length. On a more subjective level, earlier […]
Today I’m taking a look at my favourite superhero show. Superheroes are flavour of the month, at least in cinema, and recently several TV shows have popped up to either tie into existing universes, or create new ones that ride on the coattails of the movies. One of the shows that I like is Agents of […]
Today we’re taking a look at the TV show with the best lines. I don’t know whether this means the show consistently threw up good dialogue, or if we’re looking for the singular best lines in the show. If we assume the first premise, then we have a few options. The ultra violent show Spartacus […]
Following on from yesterday’s question of TV relationship, comes the relationship we love to hate the most. This is a little easier. The relationship between Vic Mackey and almost any other character in The Shield could be defined by Mackey’s metaphorical dick-waving in a bid to prove himself as the alpha male. He would break […]
Today’s entry is favourite TV show relationship. Not necessarily an easy one. If we’re talking about romantic relationships, then I’m struggling to look past Rachel and Ross from Friends, but I also need to give a nod to the slow-boiling relationship between Kira and Odo in Deep Space Nine. An honourable mention goes to the […]
Following on from the 90s theme of yesterday, today is all about the noughties. This one is easy. Whilst the show began in the 90s, it was in the 00s where it truly came alive and where I came to properly appreciate it. Stargate SG1 is a rare thing. There are very few shows where […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
You may be wondering where this post will go. Well, let’s place the scene in the restaurant above. What might I deem inappropriate behaviour in this setting? A restaurant has waiting staff, who (depending on the quality of the establishment) may or may not be paid a particularly decent wage, yet will work very hard. […]
