jesshelga, the TV Watchin' Meme:
Name a TV show series in which you have seen every episode at least twice:
Lois & Clark, X-Files (well, the good seasons, anyway), and honestly probably Law & Order Criminal Intent (the Goren/Eames eps, anyway). Also, Arrested Development. And Chuck.
Name a (current) show you can't miss:
Chuck.
Name an actor that would make you more inclined to watch a show:
Can I say Johnny Depp? If not... well, I still say Johnny Depp. Or William Holden! Obviously I'm trampling all over the rules. As for girls, um, Julia Stiles. Why not.
Name an actor who would make you less likely to watch a show:
I think Paris Hilton thinks she's an actress, so I blame her. Also Lindsay Lohan. And Shannyn Sossamon. And it's unfair to not name a guy, so: Colin Farrell.
Name a show you can, and do, quote from:
MST3K, Arrested Development.
Name a show you like that no one else enjoys:
Is that even possible? What with all these Hulus and YouTubes? I don't think I know anyone else, really, who adored Pushing Daisies. Except online.
Name a TV show which you've been known to sing the theme song:
Most of my shows have instrumental theme music, it seems. Veronica Mars would work.
Name a show you would recommend everyone to watch:
Mad Men
Name a TV series you own:
I own all of Pushing Daisies, all the good seasons of X-Files, all of Lois & Clark, all of Arrested Development...
What is your favorite episode of your favorite series?
Many of my shows have the #1 spot, but I have to say "Motherboy XXX" from Arrested Development. Or "Soultaker" from MST3K.
A show you mean to watch, but you just haven't gotten around to yet:
The Wire
Ever quit watching a show because it was so bad?
Heroes (never saw the S2 finale).
Name a show you aren't interested in watching, not in the least:
American Idol
Name a show that's made you cry multiple times:
I don't cry. But the episode where Mulder found out what happened to his sister, on X-Files, was pretty close.
Oldest TV show you like?
Leave it to Beaver! (or: Twilight Zone, Perry Mason, Get Smart)
Newest TV show you like?
White Collar
What do you eat when you watch TV?
Dinner.
How often do you watch TV?
When I'm home, the TV's on, but I'm really not watching; typically it's an hour or two every two days. Ish.
Do you have a favorite talk show?
I like Conan but I'm often not awake for it; Craig Ferguson is also pretty cool.
What's the last TV show you watched?
NCIS is on right now; the last show I really watched was Chuck.
What's your favorite/preferred genre of TV?
comedy/drama. or sci-fi.
What's your least favorite genre of TV?
Reality.
What was the first TV show you were obsessed with?
Star Trek: Next Generation, maybe?
What TV show do you wish you never watched?
Hmm. I'm sure I'll think of one, but right now... it'd be more like individual episodes. Like, X-Files, the one with the goat-sucker. That was an hour of my life I'll never get back.
What's the weirdest show you enjoyed?
Space Ghost Coast to Coast!
What TV show scared you the most?
When I was younger, Unsolved Mysteries scared the hell out of me (even now when I hear the theme music, I dive for the remote). A few episodes of X-Files have stuck with me.
What is the funniest TV show you have ever watched?
I think a tie between Space Ghost, MST3K, and Arrested Development.
Which do you think is the best TV series ever made?
I can't choose, man. I CAN'T CHOOSE. (If I could choose a show that I wish would never be cancelled, though, it would be MST3K.)
I think I've quasi-kind of requested a drabble, so:
The first TEN people to comment in this post get to request that I write a drabble of any pairing/character of their choosing. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level. (If you absolutely can't write, maybe find a creative alternative?) [Also, srsly, choose something you know I know; otherwise you'll get bizarre OOC crack!fic. But maybe you want that, and who am I to tell you what to do.]

You know what? I should almost change my answer. 'Cause yes.

Also yes.
And I'd love a Goren/Eames drabble. I give you free reign over subject matter.
