Hello dead weekend livejournal! I have kind of invented a meme. Well, "invented" is probably a strong word, I'd be super surprised if something like this has never ever been done before. But it's a kind of um, experiment to see how much information we accidentally pick up from reading our friendslist, but that makes it sound lame, and I THINK IT WILL BE LULZY TOO.

ANYWAY: what I want you to do is name a show I don't watch (if you want me to list the things I do like I will, but I think most of you have a decent idea of what I'm into and if you don't it's pretty well outlined in my interests -- OH, except for Psych, that's... recent and I've now seen enough that it would be cheating) and I will try to describe it to you (looking things up is obviously cheating, it's a test to see what random things have been picked up).


I'm actually equally (almost more?) enthused about the idea of feeding people shows though, so if you're bored too you should totally play on your own.

LOLOLOLOL.

Okay so there are two brothers. I think Sam went to college and was lucky enough to be engaged to my girlcrush ~Adrianne Palicki~? I DON'T KNOW, SHE FIGURES IN THERE SOMEWHERE. Anyway their dad is Jeffrey Dean Morgan and somehow he is the one who got them on this... demon hunting train. And so they go hunt demons. I guess. They drive all over the place in Dean's special car and listen to rockish music? AND...... yes. Now there are two girls, one of whom is named Ruby. Oh and there's a racist truck episode! And..... THAT IS WHAT I HAVE.

OKAY WAIT, don't girls perish in white nightgowns a lot? Also fussy X-Files people like to whine about how specific episodes get ripped off from XF a lot? They're probably just fussy.

Ugh, Alex. I wanted to argue with you. YOU ARE NO FUN.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2009-02-01 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
You could just reply to that and argue with that one!

[identity profile] praedial.livejournal.com 2009-02-01 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
But there is nothing to argue about now. :(

I don't like your factual statements. There is absolutely no opinions and emotions in this post.

1. I HAVE NO IDEA
2. There's a fraternity and a sorority! One of the guys has curly brown hair! They... go to college parties. Isn't someone gay? ALSO ANNA OSCEOLA GUEST STARS AT SOME POINT, and I love her for no reason.
3. I have seen the first season, so I don't think it counts.
4. OKAY SO A BUNCH OF KIDS LIVE IN ENGLAND AND... have sex and do drugs. One of the girls (Effy?) doesn't speak. Chris is apparently wonderful, as is Chris/Jal, but eventually he dies and everyone is upset. NOW IT'S FULL OF NEW PEOPLE?

Yes, I'm back. Since someone already did Doctor Who, I would like to hear you talk about Torchwood :)

I will forgive you because you are young and obviously blind

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2009-02-01 08:17 am (UTC)(link)
OKAY! So isn't Captain Jack like immortal? He has some weird triangle going on with Gwen and Ianto (who he definitely makes out with), where I think they maybe all kind of like each other in a vaguely OT3ish way?

I don't know what they do at Torchwood, but I figure it's got an edge of time travel??? And in the finale Tosh and Owen died tragically. ALSO MARTHA IS SOMEHOW INVOLVED. And fandom hates Gwen unreasonably.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2009-02-01 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
IT'S NOT MY FAULT HE HAS A RODENTLIKE FACE :(

[identity profile] superskittles76.livejournal.com 2009-02-01 08:24 am (UTC)(link)
LOL isn't it amazing what we pick up from our flist? Jack is indeed immortal, and he's sort of with Ianto but has lots of sexual tension with Gwen, who fandom does indeed hate unreasonably. Everything else is true too.

Torchwood: Outside the government, beyond the police. Tracking down alien life on Earth and arming the human race against the future. The 21st century is when everything changes, and you've gotta be ready.

It's not really time travel at Torchwood, although they have done that lol. They protect Earth, specifically Cardiff, from aliens. And usually do a crap job at it :P
