Yes I am still doing that meme...

[shah_of_blah]

This "30 Days of TV" nonsense has led to me posting WAY more than usual.  Not sure how I feel about that.  Anyhoo, I had, like, a three-way tie for the next category until I stole my friend's idea.  But today you get two runner-ups. And some pilotlove.

Day 20 - Favorite kiss

(cap from buffyworld)

The winner: Willow and Tara in 'The Body.'  The first time I saw this scene, I didn't notice that it was their first onscreen kiss.  I had never noticed that they had not, in fact, had an onscreen kiss (not counting Xander's dream in Restless) before that moment.  But when I did realize that, I loved the way their physical relationship had been presented.  There was no fanfare, no muss, no fuss.  They just were.  And this scene is so, so beautiful and so heartbreaking.  My favorite scene from one of the show's most incredible episodes.

Runner-up #1: Lee and Kara in Eye of Jupiter.  There are different ways kisses can be awesome.  This one is just hot.

Runner-up #2: So we've had a beautiful, sweet kiss, and an angsty hot kiss.  Now we have a life-altering kiss.

Rose and the Ninth Doctor in 'The Parting of the Ways.'  I love this episode to a million pieces, and I'm usually already crying by the time we get to the kiss.  In their first and only kiss (as this Doctor) he sacrifices his life (or rather, one of them) to save hers after she's saved him/humanity.  It doesn't get much more epic than this.  (For the record, the only challenger for the 'epic' category was Buffy/Angel in Becoming Part Two).

Day 21 - Favorite ship

May I direct your attention back to that gif?  Yes, my favorite ship should be fairly obvious at this point, I do believe.  I'll just say that I'm frakking obsessed with Kara/Lee.  Because I am too tired to write something fun about them right now, I will just direct you to a few of my favorite picspams and meta posts.  They said it better anyway.

In other news, last night's Glee brought back my original favorite character (as in my favorite part of the pilot), Howard.  What does it say about me that two of my favorite characters from this show are Puck and the guy who can't fold a fitted sheet?  I think Howard goes along with Toby (The Office) and Greg (Flight of the Conchords) as my belovedly blah characters.  Love 'em.

Also, Movieline's rather humorous (intentionally?) attempt to tie up almost 100 of Lost's questions led me to believe that the problem isn't so much that they didn't give us answers, but that the answers they gave us are dumb.  I mean, 'it combines water and light,' wtf is that?  Okay, I'm done talking about Lost.  Really this time.

That K/L kiss ranks number one for me every frakking time. I keep wondering if the whole tongue action thing was scripted/directed or if it was just real UST rearing its head. (I've been reading a lot of RPF these days on K/J so I might be jumping to totally ridiculous conclusions here).

OMG ... how creepy was the whole Sue thing last night on Glee? I have to say, my fav char is Kurt. Maybe cuz I have a million gay friends and it breaks my heart to see what Kurt has to go through. I thought the way they dealt with it during the Gaga episode was brilliant.

Ah Lost ... I really should post my damn rant and get it over with. I saw the Movieline thing too and frankly, I'm not pissed so much about not getting answers to the questions either. I'm pissed about the resolution. FTW??? Yeah, I'll post my rant later tonight.

Hee, I could see it going either way. I don't think the sideboob bit was scripted (because, c'mon, Jamie talks about that) but the licking maybe.

I like Kurt too, although sometimes I think the writers flub his storylines a bit. I dunno. I love his relationship with his dad though. Seriously brilliant.

FTW???
Haha, pretty sure you mean WTF??? I was cool with the resolution, but annoyed about the lack of answers. Although I kind of stopped caring about Lost years ago and was mostly just watching for the lulz. So when I say I'm annoyed about the lack of answers, I'm also amused by it.

Hahaha ... no, I really meant Fuck the What. I'm weird like that ;-)

[shah-of-blah.livejournal.com]

Haha, seriously? I was thinking "for the win" didn't seem right in context.

[nazkey.livejournal.com]

And you would've been totally right cuz that's what it usually means, right? I don't know, I just get a kick out of saying fuck the what. Seems funny to me. Weird = me. ;-)

That K/L kiss does make a fangirl really happy!:D How can it not, because well its just HOT!!!

Those metas and picspams are just glorious!

[shah-of-blah.livejournal.com]

I find that gif mesmerizing. I mean, seriously. She licks him.

Aren't they? I love going back to them when I need my pilots fix.

I just shake my head in agreement as I read or look at pictures.:D

Ooh, I couldn't agree more with all of these kisses. That Doctor Who scene was actually what I chose for the 'Favorite Scene' thing on this meme because it is That Epic.

And, thanks for the links to the Lee/Kara awesomeness. I really missed out on the BSG fandom, so I need lots of good meta and picspams now.

SO EPIC. I love that episode sfm.

As for the links, happy to oblige! BSG fandom is still going strong, although the show's ending definitely did a number on it.
